smccrory Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 That's not terrible actually. Anyone also see .380 around? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedytriple Posted March 19, 2013 Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 This ammo panic buying and price gouging is keeping me from going ot the range as often as I'd like to ^^This! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedytriple Posted March 19, 2013 Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 The fin in middleburg has .380 in stock limit 3 boxes. but the price sucks, think it was like $29 for 50? They doubled most of their ammo prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buildit Posted March 19, 2013 Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 I remember when you could buy 1 gallon milk jugs at K Mart for $10. And people say the 80's sucked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Punisher Posted March 19, 2013 Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 I keep an eye on this site a lot and get lucky all the time. I'm picking up a lot of bulk ammo at great prices. Recently bought more .22Lr and .223 http://www.gunbot.net/ammo/22lr/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkow97 Posted March 19, 2013 Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 Doesn't everyone keep 5,000 rounds of 22lr in their sock drawer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiggO Posted March 19, 2013 Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 I've seen 2 guys sell 1400 rd 22L Remington buckets for $150! I offered them $70 and of course they turned me down. Last week I walked into a Walmart and they were putting some out, so I bought a 1000 of 22L for $45 plus tax.people are stupid for paying those high prices!

smccrory Posted March 19, 2013 Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 And for .22 no less. I mean, I can see a premium for .223 and defensive ammo for larger calibers (driven by assault weapon ban fears and the huge uptick in CCW classes), but .22?!Wait, is the squirrel zombie apocalypse unfolding already??? Someone with a stockpile please protect the rest of us unprepared sheep! ;-P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone with a stockpile please protect the rest of us unprepared sheep! ;-PI know I was rolling in 9mm in my mind and no worries about 22lr till I bought a MKIII and was suddenly going thru it real fast. Like most I think I'm stuck in a "if I find it I buy it" mind set. It's just to easy to go thru ammo on a fun range day where the gun is spot on and you are sending them as fast as you can load them.

crb Posted March 19, 2013 Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 Doesn't everyone keep 5,000 rounds of 22lr in their sock drawer?No but I might have a case or two in my linen closet. You just burn through so much 22lr at the range especially if you got kids with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gump Posted March 19, 2013 Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 This was part of Barry's plan. Make it more expensive and blue collar gun crime dwindles. I think it would just make you smarter about your crimes and force you to improve your accuracy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smccrory Posted March 19, 2013 Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 I doubt it's part of a Master Plan. They may have flawed gun policies based on philosophical differences and ignorance, but they probably are buying up surplus for the same reasons we do - anticipation of future short supplies. Unfortunately everyone's hoarding is creating the very supply shortage feared. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smccrory Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 FYI I stopped by Cabella's tonight to see what subcompact pistols and ammo they had. As expected, there was no 9mm, 40mm, .22 (not even hornet), .45 or 38 special to be found. They did have a few boxes of special load .380 for $30 (yikes!) but one guy bought them just as I passed by. Tons of 12 gauge though - seems as if bird and buck shot aren't being run on yet. The prices on the shelves looked somewhat normal (once they get stock back) - I remember seeing CCI for $9.99. I did pick up .22 pellets and CO2 for my Crossman 150 - at least I'll have something to do at the range. ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madcat6183 Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 Recon, that's where we are too, I need several hundred more 9mm, or 22lr for the CHL classes and am already trying to find it. I do think I have a brick of 22LR in Lancaster I left there a few years ago just need to go see my aunt at our lodge and get it. But this is rediculous, I don't even know where to start anymore. If Cabela's doesn't have it, and Gander doesnt in Cbus, then I think it's game over.I stopped at Canal Wally last night and they had 40SW and 7mm and some 220 stuff, but nothing worth anything.

My Wal-Mart has 44, 38, and 357. My pusher has some 9, 40, 45, 38, 357, 380 defense rounds no range amno though, and only a few boxes of each. Another store I visited a little south of me had tons of 45 and 44 range and defense, they had a few boxes of hornady 223 rounds until I showed up.
