It doesn't really matter for those of us in the US until someone can and will import it. Of course, if I visit South Africa, I might find a few boxes in my gun case when I get home. Wink

When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere.

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

None of it actually exists, it's just a concept that being floated about by whomever created the site.

There's a huge thread on Rimfire Central about this and I'm thinking it might be a hoax.

Lead free jacketed .22 rimfire already exists in CCI's TNT Green .22WMR.

I have sent an email too a week ago without any kind of answer.
Do they exist? a very good question.
Winchester is working on leadless .22LR ammo:

LEAD-FREE BULLETS ENTER WINCHESTER .22 RIMFIRE LINE IN 2009

As a result of increasing customer demand for lead-free products across the United States, Winchester® Ammunition will offer three lightning-fast, lead-free rimfire bullets, chambered for both .22 Win. Mag and .22 Long Rifle (LR) cartridges, beginning in 2009.

The Winchester SUPER-X® lead-free bullets are well-suited for practice and ideal for small game, varmint and pest control. They are designed for maximum expansion and they are extremely accurate. These products use a patented technology to achieve a totally lead-free bullet.

“Winchester Ammunition engineers our products for hunters and target shooters to assure they have quality, high-performance ammunition that also complies with local regulations in their hunting and shooting areas” said Greg Kosteck, Director of Marketing for Winchester Ammunition.

These three rounds join Winchester’s wide selection of traditional lead projective rimfire products designed for precision target shooting, silhouettes, plinking, small-game, varmint hunting and pest control.

The new SUPER-X .22 Win. Mag features:
Muzzle velocity of 2,200 feet per second
Bullet weight: 28 grain JHP
Rounds per box: 50 rd. plastic pack
Symbol: X22MHLF
Availability: January 2009
The new SUPER-X .22 Long Rifle

Muzzle velocity of 1650 FPS
Bullet weight: 30 grain THP (tin hollow-point) & TRN (tin round nose)
Rounds per box: 50 rd plastic pack
Symbol: X22LRHLF & X22LRLF
Availability: March 2009
