Does anyone know of a source of .22 Winchester Automatic ammunition? Any quantity considered.

Thanks, Jame. Would you know who that is or someone who sells this brand?

Just checked the Aguila web site and they do not list it. Sent them an enquiry.

E-mail bounced back from Aguila so anyone know of the UK importer?

I have one round of the stuff which is probably not what you are looking for. Good luck with the search and please do post if you find a UK source.

I remember the storm Aguila created when they started making this. Seems it was the first production run of this ammo by anyone for some 60 years. It was a Limited Production run by Aguila. The rub has possibly finished now and guys on the US "old gun" forums were buying it by the case load.

In case it helps, Aguilas product number was 7-AMS22WA. I'd try Hannams and Norman Clarke, they always have strange stuff knocking about!
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Aye, but it is the ammunition Derek is talking about not the staff.
