.22 ammo support group thread

[oldschool88]

The Walmart in Elk Grove had maybe 30 or so 100 round packs of CCI mini mags when I was in there earlier today. 6.47 each. They also had CB shorts and 22 bird shot.

i just picked up some AE, and i kinda noticed something different, but not enough to think anything of it. and when i looked at it in the car it was the 500 rd non-plated/non-HP variety. its a straight lead bullet.

i didn't even know they made this? but whatever, its 500rds instead of 400. I've been buying the HP 400 rd packs since i was about 10 years old.

does anyone have any feedback on what i bought? shoot the same?

Heard the the Wallyworld in Tracy/East Bay has been stocking Fed Auto Match 350 round packs for $16 with a 6 box limit. Also for the guys close to Livermore, Dom's Outdoors had some CCI the last time I called down there a few days ago, didnt ask what CCI they had though.

To the poster that lied to WalMart about the "shoplifter", I understand your feelings,but by lying, do you want to bring yourself to that guys level? I'd of probably given your kid a brick but to be honest, as I commonly sell/trade ammo among friends at non gouge rates, I might have not as if I had 6 bricks, 3 or so would go to others I know at cost.

I'd of at least tried to throw him part of a box, for free even maybe.

Also, I don't lying to Walmart about a possible shopluifter will work, they need to see him in the act to detain him I believe.

Highest gouge I have seen on a 50rd box of non special .22lr ammo like Lapua or Eley match, you shoud sit down know if you are not, ready?




$5.50 a box of 50 of Winchester .22lr ammo. Wow.

I think the bubble is bursting a little anyways, I've seen gouge rate Wolf and basic .22lr ammo sit most of a day or even two days know when put for sale at Turners or such.

I also heard Turners employees commenting in the store about holding ammo for themselves,like a brick or two of .22lr or for friends, sad. But haha, those bricks at Turners are like $28 a box!

I have yet to pay more than about $15 per 500 yet, I just am patient and wait and search. I don't always get the brands and such I want but I refuse to be gouged.

What's next, "reining blood?" hehe.

Ahh, I see you recognize good music? With the new administration, it may be in the near future. LOL!

Hoping to use some of it one day

[Dirtbiker]

So Stevie, what are you going to do with all that ammo?

[stevie]

I've been lucky this week as I was able to get 10 bulk packs total in 3 days time from the ones here, (there are 4 in Lancaster and Palmdale). so I now can use the conversion kit I got from YZERNIE.

Good to hear.

Bass Pro had 500 packs of Remmy for $20 today.

This past Friday, Turner's got their ammo in and was seeing 22lr on the tables there.

I picked up the last two 550 fed packs at the Victorville Walmart. Also it looks like the VV WM is getting out of the ammo biz, because where the ammo used to be, is now donuts.

Damn, my Local Wally World got 10 boxes of Fed. Bulk in today, and when I got there @ 9:00 they were already gone.

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.

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.

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?
