Yep. It's just Colorado.

Its sobering to think how intense the demand is for a non-essential item and to realize how desperate society will become if its food, water, or energy that becomes scarce.

Yep.

So, did you head over to the Tanner show to buy your 22 ammo?

[Stvros]

Did not head to Tanner, really don't want to get wrapped up in hoarding 22lr, I actually would like to go have some fun shooting it...(silly me). Hopefully the hysteria will subside at some point in the future and availability won't be such an obstacle

I'll take a Cabela's any day over all the other big stores. They may hoard it but at least they can get it and are selling it at non-panic prices. Even if they didn't hoard it until a big event and they were putting it out as soon as they got it it would be gone in minutes so I don't see what difference it makes? Just like Wal Mart or any others It's gone as soon as it hits the shelves.
I wish they would have build a Cablea's here in the Springs instead of Bass Pro.

I went to bass pro yesterday and they had plenty of .223 and .45 along with a bunch of hunting calibers, but all at crazy prices. Cheapest .223 was $.45/rd. Reloading stuff was nonexistent. No powder, no reasonably priced bullets. There were 4 little boxes of 100 SRPs and I bought all four. Last month when I went to the Lonetree cabelas, they had thousands of primers in the big boxes of 1000 and even had some powder on the shelves.

Bass Pro seems like a bigger Gander Mtn... Lots of clothes and camping stuff, and a huge gun counter, but no real substance.


In related news, my dad lives in Michigan and he bought 1000rds of brass cased .223 for $310 yesterday from their Gander Mtn. They had pallets of it and no limit. Also had lots of powders and other reloading supplies with no buying limits. Everything but .22.

Yeah, went to Tucson a couple weeks ago and ammo was even on WalMart shelves.

I just got back from ST in Phoenix and at least BPS and the Glockmeister were all picked over.

Just tossing out a little update. Went to the Cabela's in Kearney, NE yesterday. Plenty of stock on hand in large quantities. 9mm Winchester and Remington hundred round packs for $29.99, plenty of IMR 4064, Win 748, and H335 powder and quite a few others, every kind of primer imaginable, and every caliber ammo on hand except 22.

Just went there two day ago myself on the way back from Iowa.
Bought my allowed 100 rounds of .22.
Also got quite a few boxes of Blazer brass 9mm at 14.99 a box.
It was kinda sad to see all the 30 round mags just sitting on the shelves.
BTW.... No limit on the fudge.

Yeah. I cried a little knowing I couldn't buy some and bring them home.
