.22LR Ammo

Rammer13

Went to try and buy some yesterday and everyone was out of stock. Out of the five places I went, there was very little ammo on stock and I was told it would be about a year before things returned to normal. I tried online and everyone is out also. Does anyone have an idea of how I can get some, or maybe even trade some for cigars?

Give Wayne La Pierre a call. Or better yet, offer a ridiculous price for it on craigs list. Some idiot who stockpiled 50,000 rounds will probably let go of a few boxes at the right price.

He may be the idiot, but he has the 50,000 rounds that everyone wants.

I may have a spare box. Let me check. I will check at cabellas next week as well.

No one does mass panic like we do. Goes back to herd mentality. Cool if you're making a few bucks off of it like Macro said, I guess. Hope those who are hoarding it are storing it properly. .22 rounds especially don't store very well.

Only thing I've been able to find is Aquila Super Quiet on cheaperthandirt.com. No powder, fires off the primer only, single shot since it won't cycle a semi-auto. Blah...

SGAmmo.com prices are gouging ridiculous. Ammo is out there. You just have to be vigilant and check and check and check. Every time you drive by a store that has ammo go in and check. I have friends who find cases of ammo in the middle of the day at Bass Pro or Cabellas. Walmart usually puts theirs out early morning. ***'s (Knee Jerk Reaction Aholes) Sporting Goods gets trucks in on Wednesday and Friday mornings. They do not always have ammo but if you are there at 9 AM when they open you can get it. Check your local forearm dealers. All the small shops here in my metro have ammo. There is no need to be paying $1 a round for 223/5.56. It is out there just don't panic.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I was told it would be about a year before we see .22LR ammo on the shelf's. I will constantly check in stores and online. Thank you for everyone's suggestions.

It's horrible isn't it? I bought a case in November for $169 and since then the place I ordered from has not got any in stock but the price has moved up to $199 anyways. I bought a case knowing I live in a rural area and would shoot plenty in the summer when it warmed up. I'd trade some but not being sure when I can get more I'm holding on to what I got. This run on ammo has been incredible, hopefully everyone is right when they talk about being caught up by the end of the year.

Wow. Finally saw this first hand in Walmart last night. Went over to the gun section. They had some 12 gauge, 20 gauge, .410, and some 7mm. That was it. I stepped up to the counter to look at ammo. The sales rep glanced at me, saw I was looking at ammo and went back to reading her book. That's pretty ridiculous.
