I've never shot anything chambered for that ammo. What kind of gun is it? Where on earth do you source 5MM magnum ammo?

Pics in the pic section. Its a Remington Model 591 (clip fed). Bought it several years back from a guy at work for $60. He said you couldn't buy shells for it but I just liked the looks of it. Turned out you could - for $80 a box! (I bought 3 boxes) Then Taurus decided to start building guns again and Aguila started making shells again. It is a bottle neck rimfire. 70's vintage. Actual caliber is around 19. As I understand it the .22 mag sold better so Remington discontinued it. I think it's as fast or faster than some of the .17 cal rounds out there right now.

In the past, I've seen 5mm rimfire at SportsWorld but it was something I just noticed, not sure if they still carry it. Dong's might have it.

The Aguila was around $25-30 a box the last time I bought any. I did notice it was coming down in price the last time I looked.
