I can solve your budget problem with two simple tricks!

The solution: Shoot 22LR, which is easier to swallow, too!
Sort of..
Still $30-$50 (cdn$) for a good box of 22lr, and the rigs are just as expensive as a center fire rifle.
I got into nrl22 because it was cheap.. then realized after a few matches I had spent basically the same amount just shot more bullets practicing.
*can be as expensive.. however a good cz457 with a chassis can be had for a great price, and you're still paying MUCH less for match grade ammo.
If your looking to just “get by” in nrl22. I have been having good luck (in practice, first match in 2 weeks) with a cz457 and cci standard. Which is about $65 (cdn) a brick (depending on what store you buy from).
Please tell me that’s a box of 100
50
Eley tenex is barely under $1 a round here
Damn, that’s horrendous. I just looked it up, in Germany it’s ~34€ for a box of 100.
