    SCORE!!!!!

    Finally!

    I have been trying to find .22 LR to no avail for a while.
    Went to the local Big 5, still none. Asked the manager about when they will arrive.
    And that my friends is when she pulled two Winchester 555 round boxes from beneath the counter.

    She said there were no names on them and "money talks".
    Cha-ching! I bought both.

      I went to big 5 yesterday to also look for some 22 lr ammo and good thing I looked at the back of the counter and there was a case of win 555 bulk so I bought 2 boxes, also last friday i went to turner's for the black friday sale to buy 2 bricks of armscor 22 lr ammo which is on sale but to my surprise there was about 6-8 cases of win 333 so i bought 4 boxes and until today there still plenty of them...i hope that cci mini mag and federal 525 bulk will be the next 22 ammo to hit the shelves next time I visit...

            I was visiting relatives last week for Thanksgiving in El Paso, Texas. My uncle took me to the local Walmart and I cleaned out their entire inventory of Federal 550 round value packs (2 boxes). Good thing they didn't have a third as my checked in bag (with the ammo) weighed 44 pounds. Haha!

              I have been scoring loads of ammo by going to walmart around 9pm at night when they get their loads in. Most of the time they won't have it on the shelf yet, but they'll tear the sporting goods pallet apart and show you what they have.

              Edit: BTW, got 5 boxes of 555 Federal 22 for 14 dollars each just the other day, should last until next time I find some

                    I guessed, went off what my credit card price came up as and tried to subtract tax in my head. Pretty damn close! I was just excited to see them in stock

                      looks like the ammo shortage is no longer an ammo shortage.

                        There is definitely a disparity here as the Walmarts in my are do not sell ammunition. Which may explain a shortage in the Big 5's. Where's Sherlock Holmes when you need him.
