    It fits both my P220 and P226, just different mags, tried it out and
    it fits both perfectly, now I can shoot the sig with less expensive 22

    That's why I picked up a Colt Gold Cup 1911 22 cal. Less that 400 but can shoot all day on way less expensive ammo.

    Yeah even 22lr is hard to find now, I've got several boxes of 500+
    whenever we see it we buy it...

    Got 4-5 boxes of 500 packs. Stocked up on 9mm during the summer and have about 2000 rounds, same with 45 and 40 although not quit that many.

    I hear so many guys in gun shops begging for 22cal ammo. I actually don't understand why 22 cal has gotten so rare. I can understand 9mm but 22cal?

    People are hoarding the 9 and 45, they are buying all the 22
    to have stuff to shoot cheaply as 9 and 45 prices go to the roof
    during this Zippy the Gunputz term.

    It may be 4 years on this one before you see normal again.

    40 is not bought as often, so it's a good round to have a gun
    in for supply, but even it's drying up at wal-mart.

    I've seen plenty of 40 and 45 at the LGS but 9mm and 22 are scarce.

    Plus I wanted to pick up some 6.5X55 Swedish ammo and can't even find that. Now I know that, that is not a very popular round so should be some available. I can go online and get the expensive stuff.
