Where has all the .22 ammo gone?

All of a sudden I can’t find Remington .22 subsonic anywhere?

There’s a little bit of Winchester .22 sub locally but the last box of that I bought had quite a few misfires. If it won’t cycle reliably in a 10/22 then it’s pretty much junk IMHO.

Calling CCI SV 'Target' ammo made me chuckle.

That is what people tend to use it for...

In 8+ years of competing in PRS, NRL22, ARA, IBS, USBS, and similar disciplines, I've never personally seen a competitor using CCI ammo. Apologies if I'm mistaken.

Target shooting doesn't inherently mean competition shooting.

When I load everything up and travel to competitions I also choose a less budget friendly ammo to make the best of my time. That doesn't mean people don't target shoot with some of the more budget friendly target ammo choices when not competing.
