My LGS must have bought a truckload of 500 round boxes of American Eagle .22LR earlier this year. They have been selling it for $14.88 a box for several months now. It's the lead round nose version. It comes packaged in separate 50 round boxes in trays. It's cheaper than any of the bulk bricks that Academy Sports sells, and I think it's better, too. Surprisingly, it shoots cleaner than anything else I have tried, even Federal bulk, which I'm assuming is made by the same company. Since they are packed in trays, the rounds are clean and don't get all ding-ed up from rattling against each other.
It's not the most powerful stuff in the world, but works perfectly fine for plinking and shooting at paper targets. Seem plenty accurate.
I'm surprised more stores don't have the stuff.
