As supply starts to exceed demand, prices will drop.

All that .22 ammo is gone by now.

I bought three boxes last Sunday at Walmart. $2.37 for 50. First .22 I’ve seen in two years.

My Wife and I just got home from the range after shooting 150 rounds of .22 from the Ruger 22/45. She’s working on her trigger discipline.

.22 ammo is coming back slowly, but prices are still jacked up. Local store had a few boxes at $4/per 50. The ridiculously high target ammo never ran out, but it was always like $12 per box.

I am leaving the Peoples Republic of Washington to move to North Phoenix in 2 months, can’t wait!

If 0bama talks against guns before the election it will disappear for a while again. If the democRATS get defeated prices will go down after everyone catches up.

to move to North Phoenix in 2 months, can’t wait!

We were over in Peoria/Surprise last Toikey Day weekend....wowzers as to how that area is growing.

PS - they have In-N-Out in metro Phoenix.

Welcome to Arizona.

I was at the local Wal-Mart a few weeks ago, sort of just looking at the guns in stock. While I was there an old man walked up and asked for .22LR ammo.

The lady asked him how many? He said one box. She reached under the counter and handed him a 100 round box. I later found out they had a 3 box limit but still that is the first time in a couple of years they have had any.

if we escape another political scare from the Obama administration.

Oh, I'm sure they are working on it. Just wait until Tuesday.

I saw a few boxes of .22LR at the Walmart in Lucas, TX last week. First in a long time!

[discostu]

I notice all these “ammo shortage” stories revolve around WalMart. Gun shops near me haven’t been short on anything during this “situation”. Maybe people need to go to better stores.

[cmsgop]

I was there last weekend, i went to that In and Out, not bad....

[cmsgop]

Thanks Sand Rat, that means a lot!

[Jack Hydrazine]

Are they rationing it there at that Wally World?

[SandRat]

When you get settled in to PHX, you’ll need to explore SouthEast Arizona, to see the sights.

[donozark]

Did you happen to note if any .22MAGNUM available?

[I-ambush]

I’ll be there on the 3:10

I’ve been checking all manner of stores - Cabela’s, Gander Mountain, small local shops, other large stores ... nothing anywhere.
