Anyone here know where I can find this kind of ammo? It was last produced by Aguila; so far I can only see it being sold in the states.

Thanks.
 
It is hard to come by up here but around every 5 years they do a run and we get some. In the past around 10 years I've managed to find 2 bricks but you're looking at 400.00 to 450.00 per brick. As far as I know there is none for sale in Canada right now. I actually just sold another member here 200 rounds of my stash yesterday so he'd have a bit to shoot.

Aguila has sellers. About 650 USD per 1000 I saw from Aguila's distributers but no distributors in Canada apparently so it's going to be tough to find any I know.

Hmm.. I'll have to check that out. Maybe they don't even make it anymore.

They do make it but they only do a run of it about ever 5 years it seems. We do get it up here because I have bought from dealers on CGN. It was probably 30 years since it was manufactured till it started again around 2012 or so. Last time I bought it up here was many years back and Canada Ammo had some for sale. You will be looking at about a buck a round if they do another run and we get some in Canada next time. The stuff now is 30gr. instead of the old white or green box 38gr. that was sold in the 70's and 80's. I still have about 900 rounds of the old 38gr. stuff and about 700 of the new production 30gr. ammo. It wasn't cheap to shoot even back in the 70's because a few of my boxes of 50 rounds, from back then, have price tags of $7.95 on them. Me and my old man shot many Coyotes back in the day with my 5mm mags and .17 REM.

Closer to Edmonton but I would be willing to drive for a couple boxes if they're available, that would be awesome. Would love to see what this gun is like vs. .22. I'm new to this site though I've know about it for a while, I imagine there is a private chat?
