Where is the .22 LR?

[shortround]

I've shot more .22 LR in the last month than I could replenish.

Have not seen any .22 LR at Academy since before Christmas, and I refuse to waste my time at WalMart.

Did get some .22 LR on-line for about 10 cents per round, but that was always the case over the last six years.

What say you?

You could try the gun show.

I haven't seen .22 ammo below 10 cents around at a gun show in a in while. Good luck finding something cheaper at a Gun Show.

It's behind the counter at Academy.
Been buying it there for a few months now.

Got a cheap-ass box of Winchester for $.045 at Academy last week. Haven't been looking for it much though. Neckbearding stash hasn't run out yet.

I got six 100 rounds boxes of Winchester super x. My wife works part time there so I have a spouse discount card.

Gun Shack had some 325 round boxes of Federal Automatch yesterday for $24.99/box limit one per customer. Not sure if they still have it, you can give 'em a call at (210) 858-6882. They are open Monday-Friday from 10am to 6pm. Great folks there!

This would be really tempting if they had free shipping Armscor Precision 22LR Copper Coated HV HP 36 Gr 5000 Round Case | AmmoFast.com

I heard that stuff isn't actually too bad; but at 9.8¢/round with shipping, it's a bit too much for .22LR to be considered a "deal"...

I think in the sort term, .22 ammo is going to be more expensive than the days of a 500 round brick for $12-15 or so. If you want .22, you can find it. A bit more expensive than before, but if you want to go out and shoot 500 rounds, you can find the cheap stuff. I wish people would just quit bitching about it and maybe the prices would wane. You know, demand drives prices.

I guess I've been lucky finding it the past 6 months. 1k for $50 @ Academy and smaller bricks here and there at cheap prices.

Yeah, I wouldn't call it a deal either, but I haven't seen much for under that.

 

[robertc1024]

Yes Sir - I've got piles of $.10 of fifty boxes in my stash. Academy still seems to have the bricks at half of that pretty frequently. Admittedly, not Eley, but for plinking ammo . . .

 

[Reaper277]

Yep I've been shooting the cheap bulk stuff, I'm holding back getting into my stock of CCI

 

[Hoji]

Just ordered 5,000 rounds of Wolf Match Target.

I've got an old brick that I keep around....just because..... still has the $1.42 price tag on it.

 

[LOCKHART]

Hmm, I'm 69 years old, and I dont ever remember bricks being 1.42!

 

[jrbfishn]

I remember bricks of remington target for $5.00 each. At the time I thought that was outrageously high. Twice what I paid for a brick of anythjng else.

In DFW?
I'll sell you some for what I paid for it
