Kel Tec PMR 30

Pretty sure the manual says to use CCI 40g HPs. I have shot some Hornady 30g BTs, and man, the fireball is impressive. Had zero issues with that ammo.

I wonder has anyone tried the M*CARBO upgrade parts?
Some of them are quite pricey to just try out and figure they do nothing. :-)

my cousin bought one several years ago, been trying to find a used one for the right price. plenty of online ammo places but prices are higher now.

I had some real problems with Aquila ammo. I find that CCI, Hornady, Fiocchi so far work best in my gun

Since my feed ramp was polished (twice) I’ve had zero issues. Last time I had it to the range I shot the heck out of it with all sorts of ammo. 2% failure rate. Considering it’s rimfire I’ll consider that a win.

I’ve had good luck finding 22mag ammo at Walmart. Usually in the milk carton looking containers. 150 or 175 rounds per carton.

Walmart for 22mag is a good idea. I should check those around me. Thanks.

Mine is only through it’s 4th box of ammo. So far it’s been running without one stoppage.

$17-19 per box of 50 cci and winchester (available locally)

It’s hit or miss but the price is right.

Just ordered me one, not sure when I get it.
can anyone give me some kind of accuracy at 20 yards ?

The gun has fiber optic front and rear sights and is really accurate right out of the box even with my old eyes

my wally has had nothing but shotgun since feb when bought their last two bricks of 22lr. girl running it says have had nothing, i said sure warehouse is not being instructed to hold it back? got a dirty look, you know they are getting it if they order it, online high priced guys are getting it!

You think the PMR-30 makes a fireball, here hold my beer. Try an Armscor .22 TCM, it is like shooting a .44 mag. The ammo is much more available.
The 1911 design that fires .22 TCM and 9mm with only the included barrel change is sooo worth it.
BTW have a PMR and CMR-30.

I had one, too. Nice shooting gun. I thought it had great sites, a smooth trigger and was very accurate. With those 30 round magazines, I'd get about 20 rounds into it and start thinking "is it ever going to run out of rounds?" Sold it to a friend, but I know where to find it if I ever want to take it to the range again.

I put a cheap red dot on mine and it shoots lights out. Its a 3MOA dot and covers that in spades. There's no recoil to speak of so a less expensive optic is a possibility without beating the hell out of it.

I looked at this gun online. I really want one now.
