Rumor Control-Ammunition Shortages - LRRPF52 - 03-07-2013
Everybody is cranking out ammo as fast as they can. It's just that way more people are buying it, and are buying it in volumes that they normally don't.

When I've been lucky and found .22, its been only a little more than it was in December.
But the secondary market.....I found a couple bricks a few weeks ago, and paid $20/500. Then walked out the door and was offered $40. Its stupid.
A friend was offered 3000 rounds for $500, for the same ammo we paid $120 for in December. That's a 400+% jump!

Do any of you guys shoot with .22LR just for the sake of saving a bunch of cash vs. grendel?
How many of you guys have an Anschutz target rifle?
Pretty close at $219.90/500.

I just took a look at Midway and I believe they are totally out of .22 Rimfire. However, the prices they are listing, despite being out, isn't any different than before this current scare.
So, maybe that top end Ely stuff was very expensive to begin with? Not sure.

Yep - it was always pricey to shoot, but the precision was much better! Wolf & Lapua were always pretty good & a little less $$$. Champion shooters is the place to get the tenex.
