Just can't seem to make myself pay that yet.They tell me at Walmart that people wait in line for them to bring them out and buy them all instantly. They are selling them online. Gerald

Keep trying, Harry. I've acquired 5000 rounds of 22 lr over the last 4 months. The supply is loosening up, but you can't expect it delivered to your door.

As for 22 magnum - $13 for 50 is what that stuff costs and has for some time. Sell your guns before you wait to acquire the stuff for less money on a consistent basis. Supply of 22mag and 17hmr has never been hard to find. Demand is not high. It was $13 a box before Sandy Hook. $13 after.

Most Walmarts won't sell you more than 3 boxes of any ammo at a time because otherwise some jerk will walk up and buy the last 10 boxes off the shelf right in front of you, and then laugh about it to their friends with some embellished story.
