    Bass. Had a window open to Bass Pro Shoppe since six this morning trying to log me in every 30 seconds; guess I am not the only one trying to buy some.

    Funny, I got in w/o issue just before my post earlier. Even had a co-worker get on to BPS site and get a bucket of ammo. The only time I got this message was when I tried to link directly to the item page.

    As of 8:35am today, Cabellas has stock of 22lr
    Remington® .22 LR Rimfire Ammunition : Cabela's

    Edit: found out a co-worker ordered this earlier in the week and got an email from Cabela's that the item was back ordered and would ship when available.

    Subsidizes for .22s? Never heard that one. Why would they do it? Who is doing it? The reason .22s are cheap (although the actual manufacture of the case, bullet and assembly is not all that easy) is because they make billions of them every year. You have a couple lines that produce nothing but .22s all day, every day and don't have to worry about stopping the line to tool up for an once a year run of 22 Savage Hi-Power or whatever. Are the "real" prices going up? Sure. Your money is worth less (called inflation) and if you look at the prices of metals (brass, lead, etc) they are all over the place, but normally go up as well, especially in the long run. Will we ever see pre-panic (let's be honest here and call it pre-Obummer prices) again? Doubtful. Not because they figure they will make millions screwing .22 buyers over, but because the money is worth less as more of it is printed (the US already owes more money than there is right now in the world. If the US took every penny from every person in the world, it STILL could not pay off the debt the demonrats have spent so far. And Obummer is spending like a drunken...er...ah...sailor) and as more money chases fewer products, the prices go up. Nothing else is at the "good old days" prices, why should .22s be different?

    Maybe true Sir, But I have problem buying a few bricks 2000 rounds for an evening of shooting with the kids & Grandpaws (as I am) spending time with the kids, dads , wifes , for an evening of learning / respecting / & fun for ALL . Our Gun club membership is wasted . NRA won't be supported anymore , another waste. Dumb em young .

    I picked up 400 rounds today at $5.47 a hundred. I grabbed 5 boxes and called it good... though he said I could buy all he had if I wanted it... I am a frequent visitor so maybe he was trying to give me a break... but I don't want to be that guy. Anyways, he had about 20 boxes left.... now I wish I had just swooped them up.... jeeesh.

    My math says 5 times 100/box = 500 rounds .
    Thats shy of having 4 rifles , a bunch of kids , 3 elders (im one who reloads , fixes, etc) and two other 60+ gents who make sure the dads are backed up. We want all to have fun at a no pressure outing . Ear / eye protection plus , Manners & english . 500 might be 1/2 hour / hr . Id rather have lots so they can scope , range , shoot & play at hitting balloons to spray bombs @ long distance (Fun times ) . Even Moms get into this play . One mom once brought a exploding green blob of jello , no one hit it ;) .. A great evening with kid spotters , who said they saw it move !!
    Im thinking those were the 12yo scout's / girl guides ? Im Kidless , but aged as Grandpaw , many A younin has had a good time , just bring a adult & we have an area for you. We supply the rifles , ammo & my partners supply knowledge due they are kid endorsed.

    Sorry, the rum was interfering with my typing.... I did buy 5 boxes and you are correct... thanks for noting the discrepancy. I buy every time I see it on the shelf, but not to the point that I clean them out... for some reason I think I need to reach that goal that Tac set.... I think it was 25K.... I am a long way off... but stacking it deep. ;)

    It is selling here (when it is in) in 333round boxes (limit one) @$20.00 or $.06 each. This is new, and they were out of stock when I went in for it, but at least there is some available now at @$.10 per round in 100 round boxes limit two. (Hit and miss).

    I have never seen a product demand in the United States that wasn't met and exceeded by manufacturers almost over night. Capitalism is based on greed and greed fills demand. There is absolutely no way that I am buying into our industry and imports not being able to satisfy the market, especially after three years. I am not that freaking gullible.

    Geez - in the 90's I reloaded .223 with 55gr soft points for just under .08 / round. Many a ground squirrel found themselves launched into the air, most in more than one direction at the same point in time.
    Now you're hard pressed to find .22s for that price if you can find them at all.

    madmax Far right. Bipolar. Veteran. Don't push me.

    My wife showed interest in shooting a few years ago. I put her on my Henry .22 lever action. oh boy. She thought she was the Rifleman and started blowing through ammo. Then she wanted to shoot a handgun and she started in on my Ruger Mark III. "You don't even have to cock it!" "This is great!"

    groan. I'm going to have to come out of retirement and get a job. She's even made bracelets and necklaces out of spent shells.
