Interesting reading.
When I started collecting ammunition for collecting purposes, .22 boxes, many no longer around , were comparatively cheap, then, my brother bought a vintage Remington top line .22 bolt action, so I thought, well we can shoot these and see which is most accurate.
BUT
he got married and last for all practical purposes gave the rifle away, (he could have gotten half of what they gave him, had he just sold the RARE extra magazines online).
So now I have a couple of thousand rounds of very varied .22 rimfire.
I do have my Stevens 87J .22 semi-auto, which dad won at a Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing drawing, (how times have changed) but have to work on the firing pin so it does not misfire on rare occasions.
At that while it served me well in my rabbit hunting days it was never exceptionally accurate.
When I put a Weaver V22 on it fifty years ago, I was very happy with the results.
When I think of .22 long rifle I still think of the yellow .22 Western we had up here, no Winchester; green Remington Golden Bullet; Federal, back then it was just Federal; and then came along CCI, plus when the farm store opened they had, and we were OH WOW British ammunition, Eley; oh i almost forgot Coast to Coast (CIL).
Now I think the only one of those still around in the form I grew up with is the Remington Golden Bullet.
Here is an interesting bit of information:
