    ScottsBad, I feel your pain. Truly. And that is part of the reason for this issue. Before all this nonsense, most people would not stockpile. Before shooting one would stop into Walmart, Big 5, Turners, etc and pick up 1-2 bricks. Now, if we have less than 50 bricks we feel nervous!

    Mail order is challenging due to the cost of shipping, and quick selling out of the brands we all want.......
    Yeah, it sucks. For me it makes no sense to drive from store to store because of the cost in my time and gas. So shipping is the way to go. I just buy from time to time.

    Well, I buy .22 for my girls, I shoot .223, .308, 9m and some 7.62x39, my wife mainly shoots her 9mm and some .223. Love the commie 7.62x39 prices, I only buy Wolf.

    sigpicC'mon man, shouldn't we ban Democracks from Cal-Guns? Or at least send them to re-education camps.

      CCI standard velocity in stock at Midway for 44.95 with 500 rd limit. If you add a CR2032 battery for $2 shipping is only $2.40. Comes to just under .10/rd. Not too bad for internet/mail order from what I can find. At least I can use the batteries for my red dot sight. Of course only applies if their lovely new policy isn't blocking you from ordering.

        They took down that special pretty quickly though some of us made out. My 5 bricks got delivered Friday.

        Last time I looked you could still get bricks but the limit is 2.

          looks like .22lr's new price these days is in the 5-7 cents per round.

          and for some reason federal automatch is the one that keeps popping up at stores everywhere for decent pricing....

            Between Cabelas, and two different gun shops, I've bought over 1500 rounds of .22LR in the last 5 days.

              I cant make any comparisons being a new gun owner, however Dicks sells boxes of 525 for $40, no box limit either.

                As long as the voters elect anti gun politicians we will be having this problem.
                California's politicians and unionized government employees are a crime gang that makes the Mexican drug cartels look like a Girl Scout Troop in comparison.

                  Heck, it HAS been long term. It has never ended. The days of stocked shelves at Walmart and nickel-or-less a round .22LR is over.

                    If you need some ammo check out www.ammofast.com

                    You can get Aguila for 8.3 cents per round. Order two boxes of the STD Velocity and either 4 or 10 boxes of the High Velocity. That will give you either 3000 or 6000 ronds.

                    Yes you can have 2 C&R 03 FFL's; 1 in California and 1 in a different state.

                      I got the 5 box maximum at about 8:30am. Thanks for the heads up Catalyst!

                        Was at my local Big 5 today and they had a ton of it from all different makers. picked up 3 bricks of Winchester SuperX for $8 a brick. There hasn't been many times where when I hit Big 5 they haven't had some kind of 22Lr.

                            I think they have aguila as well? Big 5 is starting to step up their game
