Went into Academy last night looking for .22LR shells. Guy who worked there said the shelves were cleaned out that morning. They had just restocked.

22 lr box of 500 used to run about 20-25 bucks. If you can find them now, they'll be in the 100 dollar range for 500.

I have been paying a co worker to reload my 38 specials. Better than buying new.

Yep. But your local gouger will have plenty. Not a coincidence.

You pretty much have to be at the store when it opens to get 22LR IF they received a shipment the night before.

I consistently am at Walmart before 7 AM to get a glimmer of chance to catch the restocking. I was luck this AM. Got 100 rds 45ACP, 50 rds of 38+P and 225 rds of Remington 22LR Golden...the ammo received there last night is GONE now. It has been that way pretty much of 3 months now and I see no signs of letting up. Manufacturers literally cannot keep up with demand. It will be 6 months or more before things change, and IF this Senate AWB and mag limit ban gets anywhere, I doubt they’ll ever recover from the demand.
