.22 ammo availability

[jcwit]

I poped into a local gun store I frequent now and then a few days ago. They had Winchester 555, "no limit" for $65.99 a box.

Now there's a deal folks!

They also had SK Standard Plus for the amazing low price of $99.99 a brick.
Of course you can order the equivalent on line for $65.00 a brick.

Hey the "deals" are out there, just waiting for the next sucker.

They did have quite a few Schultz & Larson .22 Target rifles for $299, which in reality I do think is a good value on a used target rifle.

From what I have heard.... Take that for what it is worth.... Seems like early in the morning. Stocking the shelves about 8 am. It depends on the stores. They probably get trucks in 24 7.

Not necessarily. On Wednesday evenings about 6pm I've walked into my neighborhood Wal-Mart and ask the guy working the sporting goods department if he's stocked inventory from the truck yet. He'd smile, say no and go wonder off. About 15 - 20 minutes later he'll show up with a cart full of boxes. He'd pull a box off the cart and cut open a case of rimfire. This has happened to me on three occasions in the last year and a half. Federal Automatch, CCI Mini-Mag, and Remington Target. That's been a few months ago.

This last month I've brought home from my favorite Gun Store 975 round of Automatch @ $0.0625/round OTD.

Really don't see the point of shooting .22 anymore. With what I have in reloading .380 and 9s, its actually cheaper to shoot reloads. I still have 4000 plus rounds, over 2000 are Mini Mags. The rest are Thunderbolts that I would consider selling. Just don't ever shoot .22 unless I am squirrel hunting, then its only CCIs.

My gun loves thunderbolts, if you ever consider selling 'em I'll gladly take them off your hands for cash or in exchange for .380/9mm brass ammo.
I can find plenty locally, so I'm not hurting for .22, but I refuse to pay .10/rd for thunderbolts and golden bullets.

I think it's finally ending... I've purchased a few thousand rounds of .22 LR in the last week. I'd gotten so frustrated that I sold my two rifles. Got a Kadet adapter and shopping for another rifle.

If you come across a few bricks of .22, it would be unthinkable not to get a new gun to go with it.

So you just went to Walmart and picked them off the shelf? Went to the Midway site and selected the brand of bulk pack you wanted?

Gander, Dick's, and Walmart (and got some through the classifieds here).

I'm happy that supply seems to be coming back, but it still sounds as if you need to work to shop for it. You shouldn't have to go to four places to pick up a few thousand rounds of .22LR. We must not forget how we got in this stupid mess...

Sigh. It used to be easy to buy bulk .22 (~5,000/case).

Three different Ganders, more than once each At least it's out there.

You can't be serious. Democrats, liberals, Obama did not cause the 22 shortage. Or anything to do with voting caused the 22 shortage.
