Finding .22lr for near normal $$

[1911ly]

It's been encouraging . I have been able to snag a little.22lr every week. Enough to keep up with me and my sons shooting. Bulk packs, and for pretty close to last years prices. Don't ask where. I have a feeling the guys that are selling it for 50-60 plus bucks a box will beat me to it! Not going there...



Anyone else getting .22lr bulk for near normal price? Maybe it's a good sign if you are! Lets hope it is!

I haven't been to the range in about a month, been way to busy with mowing and other things. I need to start scouting ammo because I do plan on shooting a match next month.

I became so discouraged I completely stopped looking. When i did find something it was insanely overpriced. Maybe I need to start looking around again.

havent seen ANY on ANY shelf for probably 6-8 weeks ... got last 375rd box of cci mini mag TROY LANDRY "swamp people" edition @ hammond cabela's for about $25 if i remember right...picked up 2 50 rd boxes of AGUILA 22 interceptor @ a local yard sale recently...other than that i havent seen any available @ a store

I picked up a 500 round box of Remington Thunderbold at Cabela's in Hammond today for $23.99 + tax.

i tried to stop in ther yesterday, but they were doing some repaving/maintenance on the parking lot & it just REALLY looked like someplace i didnt want to drag all 18 of my wheels through !!! i thank them frequently for making space available for a big truck to come in & shop though

Don't have a LGS within 45 min that wouldn't price gouge so I've given up on .22

You don't have to go that far to get gouged. Just browse the WTS section! I am all for making a buck but 400% during the election aftermath. Not really nice to your fellow shooters

got me 2 boxes of 40gr. Federal Auto Match(325rd per box) this morning at Keystone Walmart. $14+change each, they are out there.

SG finally shipped my backorder of 2500 Thunderbolts... Couldn't believe it. Backorder since December..... Finally can break out the 10/22....

I also gave up. If I am in the area during the weekend, I will check but otherwise I work all week and can't hang around waiting for the truck.

I talked to a lady at Walmart in MI this past week and she said that .22 sells out in 20 minutes every time they get it. People wait in line for them to open the shipment to see if they have any at all and then to buy their allotment if it does come in.

I have checked the Walmart app and none of the stores that I am even remotely close to show any. Meijer shelves are empty, GM doesn't even have shelf space anymore for .22.

Yes, it is out there, but in very, very limited quantities at sane pricing.

Bass Pro shop Portage seems to get them in on Friday and in a decent amount, Think they were 2.39 for a box of 50

 

[No2rdame]

I, too, have almost given up looking. GM is out of my way and unless they are having a sale I always thought their merchandise was overpriced. I swing by both Meijer and Walmart's ammo section every time I'm in but other than the random assortment of shotgun shells I haven't seen anything on the shelves in such a long time I wouldn't know what to do if I did see something.

I was hoping that stores shelves would begin to return to normal by now but it looks like it's not going to happen just yet.

I would rather be empty handed than shoot Thunderbolts or Wildcats. That's just me.

I stumbled upon some on MidwayUSA at $22 a box about a month ago. I thought, great, things are finally returning to normal. But I've checked daily since and never seen a bit of new inventory on any websites.

 

[goldtrigger]

I picked up some last month at Traildust (Bloomington) for about 2.50 for a box of 50.
Rural King (Martinsville) has been having some occasionally for $5.00 for 50. They have been out a lot for the last few weeks. Bradis has been having CCI 50 rnds for $5.00. They have been more reliable.
Walmart (Martinsville) hasn't had any that I have seen in months!
That's about the status here in Morgan/Monroe counties.

Hey Lucky gunner has some in stock today. But I think they will be added to my boycott list.

22 LR Ammo For Sale - 40 gr LRN - Remington Thunderbolt Ammunition In Stock - 500 Rounds

 

[Jeepster48439]

I do a search on a regular basis using gunbot.net. Been able to find the ammo that I was looking for. Big box is so hit and miss, unless you can live there.

 

[M4Madness]

got me 2 boxes of 40gr. Federal Auto Match(325rd per box) this morning at Keystone Walmart. $14+change each, they are out there.

The Marion Walmart got some of these on this afternoon's truck.

^^^^I was thinking; man, this is unbelievable! How can I not find ammo when so many others are?

Then is occurred to me that hearing a few people on one website forum talking about how they found some is probably not representative of the amount of people who are looking for ammo nationwide and not finding it.
