I saw .22lr and didn't buy any!

[ws6guy]

The other day around noon the local walmart had about 8 boxes of .22lr in 222 packs for about $11. To add to that I was there for about an hour doing grocery shopping and swung past the ammo case again on the way out and it was still there!!!

 

[Bill B]

The horror!

 

[ol' poke]

It was just a mirage. Your mind was playing tricks on you 'cause you were so hungry. Eat a Snickers. The ammo case will be empty. Always is when I go by.

 

[Leo]

They were even out of 12 gauge shells this morning.

That's hard to believe as that is about all I've seen on the shelves since Sandy Hook.

That's not what you are supposed to do. You are supposed to buy your maximum, have your wife buy her maximum, and have your buddy buy his maximum for you. That way you can get on INGO and ***** at the whiners about not being prepared for the shortage in ammo supply....

Yea, I figured I was screwing up the flow by not getting my max. Or maybe I should've posted online and waited for the ammo flippers to swoop in for the kill.

 

[BogWalker]

How long before we see it in the classifieds?

Is that something like "Telegram the Governor and tell him I said...Owwww!:

"Telegram the Governor and tell him you said 'Owwww!'"?

I'm in Walmart at least once or twice a week, usually in the Evansville area (there are 3 Walmarts within 5 miles of where I live). I check the ammo locker EVERY time I'm there. I have not seen 22LR at a Walmart in 18 months. Not a single box. What the HELL am I doing wrong?!?

This is the 1st time in close to a year I've seen any at wal-mart but I try not to go there often and I don't always look. I only have a little over 3000 rounds which honestly should last me 5 years or so, however I keep thinking that I need to go to an appleseed sometime.

Going to Wal-mart. I've bought about 1500 rounds from LGS and turned down about 3500 more since the great .22 panic started.

 

[sparky32]

Man those things are worth like 30.00 on Armslist.... just kidding.

 

[scrub buck]

I don't get to wally world often, but my LGS usually has some 22 lr, but the prices start at 4.99 for plinking ammo. I picked up some premium 22 ammo from gander mt a month ago to try in my hvy bbl 22. If it doesn't like it .... it'll be passed onto someone else.

 

[Sniper 79]

Sold my 22. Screw it. Not worth the cost any more.

Please....do not miss any opportunity's....take them all. Please.

Midget says you are wrong.....

 

[clbrock18]

At least it seems to be showing up a little more frequently.

Local Rural King had bricks of Remington Cyclones for $35 and 50's of Eley Club for $8.50 the other day, 6 box limit and they considered a brick a box. Was down to 500 rounds plinking ammo and 150 rounds of target, so I bought 2 bricks of Cyclones and 6 boxes of Eley since they had a 10% off bucket sale on and that made the Eley a decent buy. Walked out of there feeling like I'd won the lottery.
