      I dropped by one morning on my lunch break at 6 AM and my description while unfortunate was quite accurate.
      I wish you well on selling it but I will pass.
      That's cool. Maybe you should look into a new line of work.

        I've had quite a bit shipped to Orange County. Some Los Angeles zip codes prohibit shipments of ammo.
        It looks like you're up north. Probably a local ordinance, like L.A., not Cabelas fault.

            It's been a few months since my last order but they shipped ammunition to my LA address.

              Maybe this would be of help:


              What's most disturbing is the sheer number of pages devoted to California laws compared to any other state.
              Page 62-95 are the local/city/municipality related ones.

                    See the problem is you bought more than you need (evidenced by the fact that you are willing to sell it) and you want to be reimbursed for you perceived investment of time (which means you didn't stand in line for yourself but rather to be reimbursed for it later). To further crash your party you are arguing with a guy who routinely gives ammo, reloading equipment, and time on his rifles away for FREE.

                    So yeah... part of the problem not the solution.

                      Absolutely no such thing as buying too much ammo or anything else someone desires to have alot of, and wants to spend their money on.

                      I am pretty angry some rich guys have bought up all the Colt SAA and some own well over 200 of them by themselves. That does leave any left for me..Just not fair..They just do not need that many of them.. Wa Wa Wa

                      Sure if I or others did not buy what we need or want, there is a chance there might be more for you, maybe not.

                      Those that sit on their butt and whine could better spend that time searching for what they need instead of sitting here typing on the computer complaining about the haves.....

                      I have alot many different calibers and I am proud of it. I have alot of other things too I bought just so someone else could not get their hands on them. Maybe I should have not bought those things either, so you could have them instead..

                      I put in the effort and time to get ammo of all kinds, and am offended when someone tries to tell me what I or even someone else can spend their money on, or how much they can have of something.

                      Your thoughts sure sound alot like communism or socialistic thinking to me..

                      I am not in any way sorry for accusing you of that thinking either. That is what I take away from analyzing your words. Deny it if you want

                      If the guy wants to dispose of some of his ammo for a little "fair" profit, good for him. That is what makes the world turn. I have in my mind, what I consider "fair" profit if I am buying. And I have strong thinking of those that gouge and would try to profit to a unfair extent by my standards.

                      Everyones opinions will be different what that fair margin is. You either buy or you do not I guess. But do not whine and think we haves are the have nots problem. It is simply not true.

                        If you have a year's worth or more, good for you.

                        I think everyone should have 2-3 years worth in reserve so they can keep shooting. If you don't shoot much .22, maybe a case would last you a couple years, but some people want to shoot once a week, 500 rounds a session... so a reserve of 60k rounds or 12 cases is not crazy for 2-3 years of regularly shooting .22's.

                        Some people could go through a case in a couple months, especially when the whole family shoots .22's.

                          A. I have plenty of .22, I don't need any more. People who consume more than they need have caused more ecological, economic, and population based problems than perhaps any other group of people in the world. Also I've given away plenty of 22 during the panic. Note I didn't specify how much he needed, he has more than he needs evidenced by his willingness to sell. crufflers is right, different people have different needs and I don't have any problem with having a lot of something if that's what fits your needs.

                          B. .22LR is not a limited resource, collecting Colt SAAs is completely different (there are no more being made)

                          It is not my need or desire to convince you that I have some sort of political lean but you sound like someone who likes to label everyone who disagrees with him as a "commie" or "un American". Pro-Tip, you don't have a monopoly on what American is.

                            The Wal-Mart workers always laugh (at? with?) me when I ask if they have any .22LR
                            The last 25 excursions have produced 1 box of 100 Super-X
                            That nice .054/round price online goes up to .09 or more pretty quickly with shipping and "maximum order: 1 or 2"

                              More than I "need"?
                              I only have two arms. Guess I should sell the 10+ guns I have.

                              I'm willing to sell it. If you're willing to buy it. Everything has a price.

                                My willingness to sell has nothing to do with my current stock. If you have "more than enough" to just give it away it seems like you are the one with too much. I buy ammo. And then sold it. Thereby keeping it in circulation when I did sell it. You horde and decide to give it away and then tell everyone you give it away like it's some sort of self pat on the back. Nice one.
