5mm Rem Mag?
Question:
I don’t know about the Mag part, but the 5mm Remington Rimfire has been out of production for about 12 years. Periodically there are rumors that it will be brought back, but to date no luck.. I have heard rumors about ammo available in Europe, but seen none. The rifles for this round are still available at Gun Shonws, etc, and the price is very reasonable. I can understand why, you can’t shoot it.

Thanks a lot for your hints. They helped already. At first I was a bit confused about reloadable rimfire cartridges but with this last post from Roy everything seems to be clear.
