.22 ammo: Is this "the New Normal?"

[Big E3]

Seriously ?

The standard is 1K per firearm with 10 mags per. If you had to ask, you're under stocked.

So, it turns out to be a silver lining that my boating accident happened a while back. Otherwise I would have to find some place to store 125,000 rounds of ammo.

I still don't understand where all the .22LR is going. I don't think it's being shot as I seldom see people shooting it.

We like to do a hundred rounds or so with the kids a couple times a year. It's fun but then we move on. So I haven't had to buy any in like five years and refuse to hoard (I would only hoard what I could someday use).

I shoot .22 pretty regularly. It's cheaper and easier to practice the fundamentals with. Probably 2-300rds a month on average.

What do you think is a reasonably bulk stock on each following? 22mag, 22.,223,308,9mm,45,12ga,357

As much as you can reasonably afford to buy or load up. As in thousands. Many thousands. It won't be affordable much longer, maybe not even legal someday. God help us, there's a LOT of people in this country that would like nothing more than to make ALL ammuntion only available to law enforcement and military. And the worst one is running for President, and doing disturbingly well.

Same here. I check weekly but haven't seen ANY .22 ammo in the two GJ Walmart stores since Dec. 2012. Have bought a few short bricks at Cabela's but that's it.

Out of stock!

But I am good given how little we shoot it. I don't even know what I have on hand but it's probably enough to hold us over for a year or two (probably a Rem GB pack and a half).

Keep checking their site, this deal has been on & off for a few weeks, ( even though it says weekend only deal.....) and has been in & out of stock daily.
