Curious to know if anyone here "collects" .22 calibers. I'm not sure why, buy I have an interest in adding to my .22 collection. Currently have .22 airgun, .22 LR, .22 WMR, and .223 Remington.
I'd like to add .22 Hornet, .222 Remington, .22-250 and possibly one or more of the newer .22 centerfires (like the .22 ARC).
Since I don't handload, I'd be left to only factory ammo.
From there my research suggests that new rifles in .22 Hornet and .222 are "rare" to find any manufacturers producing them (especially in my budget ie. not custom work) so I'd probably have to buy used, right?
I'm not particularly drawn to any specific rifle -- just the caliber (at the moment).
Which .22 caliber would you choose as your next one to add to your collection?
