WM's price for .223 here in central AZ is $8.03 for a box of 20 - when they have them, which seems to be about 7 AM on Saturday once a month - and of course you can only buy 3 boxes.

Walmart here hasn't had any .22LR since November. The only .22LR I've seen for 3 months is cheap 40 grain Wildcats at $5.00 per box at a local gun store.

If you bought low and have a stockpile good for you. But buying high just to have it for an investment didn’t work for silver and won’t work out for ammo either. Manufacturing will ramp up eventually. Right now it does keep be from practicing as much.

Being a guitar player for nearly 55 years, it sounds like you're talking about Black Diamond Strings.....btw, I own a few guns too.

This employee bought 3 boxes, I’m assuming 500 rds, for about $100 and change...

The price I quoted was for the 22 LRs, not the .223s
