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

[sroz]

I haven't seen .22LR at the Walmart near me for over a year. A gun shop I was in today had the 300 packs for $40.

This may be one of those times when the gunshow has the better prices. Thing is you have to go on Saturdays. Earlier is better. You wait till Sunday and most of what will be left is $50 to $60 bricks.

Today:
Federal 325 packs for $19-25
Winchester 1000 packs for $75
CCI mini mag 300 packs for $30
Browning 400 packs for $28

Gotta factor in entrance fee, but may be worth it if you are already planning to go or if you plan on buying a few thousand rounds.

Gotta also watch the online sales. Especially when you can get free ship. Palmetto state has Federal 325 packs for $25 and include fee ship if you buy 4. It's not great but seems to better than what you are currently finding.
