Your post reminds me of what I'll be doing after December 2010. When I retire, I'll be shooting the livin' daylights out of my K-22s. Yep, simple pleasures.
My M-17-4 is just about all ever shoot anymore. It's just a matter of economics. It'll shoot just about anything, so.......I'm up for some 550 boxes of Federal from Walmart, this time around.
My wife, Donna, says that she wants to shoot.......so I gave her my Walther P22 with the short barrel. It's the perfect pistol for her....small and light. Trouble is.......it won't use the bulk ammo. I'll just have to buy some 100 pack solids, so it will function smoothily. Bob
I shoot my model 17 and 41 pretty often. I have a few thousand rounds of federal bulk I have been buying by the box once a week for some time now until the ammo shortage ,now I cant find any either.
YEE HAH !!
I notice the 'crappo' .22lr now sells as well as the better-quality stuff.
And yes, I believe the greedy manufacturers are getting rich(er) at our expense.
But hey...
This old M-17 from 1958 even makes ME look good at the range!

I like shootin' .22s.
Why just last evening the 'better half' was visiting with the grand kids.
I'm home alone, decide to grill yours truly a T-bone and do a little shooting off the veranda...had a great time.
Not a K-frame, but Mrs. xtm says that this will be the last one they pry from her cold....
This older K-22 has the finest DA trigger I've ever pulled:
I've been hoarding quality .22LR ammo for many years. Lately, I've been buying and shooting the crappy stuff - so the good stuff won't get used up at plinking sessions.
