.22 ammo support group thread

[Lurch762]

I've resorted to having my brother, who is a long haul truck driver, check at any of the Walmarts he may stop at while criss-crossing the country. Last trip back, he brought me 5 boxes of 550 round RGB. The P-22 loves that ammo.

I tried to get some bulk pack 22 today but the guy infront bought the last 6 boxes. My kid 13 asked if he could leave 1 for him. The guy offered it to him for 3x the price. Atleast I got back at him. I told the store he was trying to shoplift. That should keep him busy for awhile.

Yeah, probably the first time he's seen .22 ammo in months and he wanted to buy up whatever he could, six box limit, so you lie to the store and try to get him harassed? How is that something to brag about?

No the salesman said he will deplete the stock everytime they get a shipment and sell on GB. He is the main reason they have a 6 limit at this store. Some of these will get cought for selling without a resale lic.. I already know LE is now watching and have already busted a few people for selling hicap mags in CA.
My friends saw this thread and 2 of them came by my place to give my son a couple boxes so he shoot on his B-bay. Still good people out there.

Selling without a "resale license" isn't illegal, but apart from that, all the walmarts have the 6 item limit now. It's good you got ammo for your boy, I haven't seen any in walmart in months.

For those Cal Gunners in the Sacramento area, Walmart on Lead Hill Road in Roseville had about 25 boxes of Federal .22lr 325 packs today around 2pm. The other store off hwy 65 had about 30 boxes of 9mm Winchester 100 packs. Good luck and I hope you shoot it and don't stash it.

Damn, I wish I was closer to the sac area. Only having 2-3 walmarts up here in easy access really limits my purchases!

I never thought I'd see the day that there would be a thread like this about shortages of .22lr ammo. What's the world coming to?

I can confirm this. Got a box myself, so git on out there!

Also in the big ammo pile was .40 and Remington 00 buck. The .223 was XM193 for a not unreasonable price given the current market.

walmart in modesto on sisk had about 8 100 round boxes of cci minimags for 6.47 each. Also maximags, and the rest were shotgun shells. They said they get ammo in everyday, and have a 6 box limit posted. Idk if that meant the 100 rounds or if u could buy the 500rd boxes they came in, yet those were all open, probably so you can't buy 6 500rd packs.

Walmart in Tulare had just about the same yesterday around noon.

The other store off hwy 65 had about 30 boxes of 9mm Winchester 100 packs.

Marysville Walmart got a sizable load last night, they had a bit of everything EXCEPT 22 bulk packs. If you needed 9mm, there were over 40 boxes of the Win 100 rounders. They were all gone by about 10 this morning. I grabbed 3 boxes of Blazer Brass in .40 and left everything else.

They got nothing tonite.
