I reload all of my ammo except for 22 LR, so I guess it is whatever 22 ammo the store carries when I decide I need some.

When it comes to shotgun ammo for duck and goose loads its all about cheap. Ive been buying from Macks # 3 and BB shot $90.00 a case delivered. this year
in my .22 i shoot mostly CCI Stingers. Plinking I still have a can of something Remington sold.
Center fire .30 and 7mm I ended up with Winchester only because Walmart sells it cheap. and I bought a bunch of 7mm 175 gn. So all my brass is Winchester. I was going to go to Barnes bullets but went with acct-bonds. If I really start shooting a lot again Im not sure which way Ill go.

Doubletap is the only manufacturer offering 160 gr (NP) in 270 win, so that deserves a shout out. If even more is even better, DT bottles a 180 gr Woodleigh Weldcore in 270 win. Because Sasquatch.
