    If they even have 22 at the gun show, I'm pretty sure they'll want to hose you for it. with entrance & parking, it's gonna get pricy.

    Seen some reasonable 22 ammo deals that CGner's have linked, just do it that way IMO.

    Gun shows, an ammo good deals don't really exist any more, could be wrong, but don't think so...

      The only good things on gun show are jerky and some unrelated firearms items. You will not get ammo deal at gun show

        Crossroads in Costa Mesa last week there was plenty of 22r.......

        At $55 to $65 per 500!

          It can be OK but figure in waiting in lines, admission, parking and having to find a deal. Today at show I saw some old 50rd boxes of 22lr at $9 each.

            No good deals on .22 at gun shows. Even if there were (but there aren't) once you figure in the parking and entry fees you aren't getting a deal unless you buy a lot of stuff to spread load it.

              Worst gouging I've seen on .22 has been at gun shows.Including one in San Antonio and the big Reno show.

                Even if there were good deals on .22, you would have to get to the gun show as early as you would any Walmart. I wouldn't bother.

                    Between ammobot, brassbager, and the deals section....

                    WHY would you go to a gun show to buy .22 ammo ??

                      Basically agree with everyone. Cruising the deals section I recently bought 4 500 round bricks at 25 a box shipped. Don't waste your time with gun shows unless you want jerky and to be jerked!

                        gone are the days of $0.06 per rd and below pricing for 22lr!!!! if you do find it, it will be online and sold out!!!!!!

                        don't bother w/ 22lr in the gun shows.... keep a (hawk) eye out on the vendors online (cabellas, gander, etc)

                          I buy my reloads at gun shows. $85 for 500 rds of 40. So you can find some OK deals.

                            Plenty of good deals on non-22 ammo at guns shows. But you can do just as well online without leaving your couch.

                              I once paid $56 for a brick at the Del Mar gun show in March, 2013. Now they want more than they did at the height of the Sandy Hook scare.

                              I boycott .22LR now, not playing that game. The rest of you, horde on.
