    Either way the rabbit is wise...It's NOT NOW, NOR HAS IT EVER been a secret or a "backdoor"....
    Newbs on forums...Todays version of the ol' grapevine...

    Hope this helps...

            And yet, it was only recently that it became difficult to get ammo using this method. 2 months ago stuff would stay up for hours, now it is often minutes. You cant tell me that the wide spread "sharing" of the cart did not make it more difficult.

              Exactly, im glad ive been saving up. Myself and family can ride this out for a LONG time.

              Its been very irritating lately that it only last minutes before goin OOS.

                    No way mine will do that anytime soon. They sell out at 7:05 everyday they have ammo. The first person would buy the whole case and no one would get any and then they would have riots!
                    The manager actually just said they might go to 1 box from 3.

                      So now the fudds who camp out will all be competing for who can get their first even earlier. I am willing to bet they will be camped out the night before

                        I have to be honest, up until recently I had no idea about this method and thought the best way was to watch gunbot. I didn't learn about it from book face (yea I say it backwards) since I dumped that garbage a long time ago. I stumbled across it killing time on good ole calguns.

                        Call me a newbie or an outsider for coming late to this topic despite my join date, I don't care. I recently got the information from my fellow calgunners helping others which is awesome. Actually I learned about it a little too late with everyone griping about the "Face Bookers" stealing the info from here. So I missed the wave before the rabbit was let out of the bag(no pun intended) As Rabbit and others have shown this method is nothing new, but due to the current climate of .22 everyone's looking for the leg up.

                        People may be frustrated but imagine if who or how ever you found out about that method nobody else spoke up and helped their friends or fellow hobbyist's even those who are blatantly flipping (even our own Calgunners, who cares). I think looking in the past there's probably an easy 100k-300k in ammo people were lucky enough to score utilizing these techniques. Good on you for getting it while its hot before the lime light really shined but it seems funny and odd to get possessive and upset others are doing just what you learned to do exactly how you did...i.e. word of mouth, open source internet forums.

                        Moral of my rant is be glad you got what you did when you could, now everyone is playing ball on the same page there's nothing you can do to change it just hope the supply gets better and people using this technique get stocked up on what they feel they need(or want to flip) and lower the demand. I've got my fingers crossed eventually I'll get some ammo but I refuse to over pay for ammo but that is my decision.

                          Local Walmart here just did that. Anything 100 rounds or over is now one box.

                                Gander delivered half of my order of CCI Quiets on Sunday.

                                First time for a delivery on a Sunday for me.

                                What I should say is half of my order was thrown in my yard damaged by FEDEX on Sunday.
