Nobody stocks the stuff, and hardly anyone stocks Eley either.
When we lived in Connecticut there was a shop in Middletown that did.
I hoard mine for special shoots...

Got a message from a friend who shoots a lot of 22 rim fire.

He says he can get it, the order takes nine months!!??

With so many people shooting 22 rim fire matches, I would have expected shops would stock these type of ammo.

buddy shoots SK for matches (bullseye)

In the 1960's I use to get for free for my club through the DCM (now CMP).

SK is made by LAPUA.

targetsports has it from time to time

I use Lapua Midas+ and XAct. So far Clint Swigert takes care of me. Since I am a somewhat regular customer I haven't ran out.

I have plenty of the Midas. Never had a problem getting it.

European .22 is so much better than US, except for Federal Gold Medal. But not even sure if Federal makes it any more.
