"Winchester has determined the above lots of 22 Long Rifle rimfire ammunition may contain double powder charges."

Holy shit! Thats kind of a big deal, that could kill someone. I'm surprised that they are not making a bigger deal about this.

I'll take'em. Just use them in a bull barrel bolt rifle.

Good luck getting people to give up their .22 ammo.

Probably a conspiracy to get people to turn in their ammo. Gov. figured that .22 must be important because people were buying it up so quickly.

^^^This. Especially after they probably made a deal with the devil to get that ammo!
