    It's only okay to wish death and disease on real, actual people. Once it's a theoretical person, in a theoretical situation, then it's not okay.

    I disagree.

    Out of curiosity which walmart are you going to? Every time I go to Elizabeth or Falcoln they don't have any. Although to be fair I normally only make it to town once or twice a month.

    Ammo has been at rock bottom prices for 3 years. Everyone has had plenty of time to buy a good supply at the best prices we'd seen in a decade. Everyone knew there would be a crazy election in 2020.

    I've had people complain to me they can't find buckshot. Hell, midway was selling cases of it for $79 for two years. Why the hell didn't they buy it then?

    We had a historic shortage of .22 before trump and ultra high prices for years. Only in the last 2 years did it finally come back down <$20/500. I have been buying .22lr for $17.95/525 for a year now because that was decade low. Anyone who didn't bother to stock up on it when it was low and plentiful is complaining to ears that won't hear.

    I have always reloaded, it does save money. But for the last few years I've been buying ammo (and reserving components) because it's been so low. Now I have a great supply of cheap ammo and the components I saved will resupply me while ammo is hard to get.

    Anyone who's upset they can't find what they need now, that's on them. Prices have been amazing, stock was plentiful and news of this ammo run was written on the wall in big giant letters you could see from space long before it started. You don't have what you need, you should be mad at no one but yourself.

    And a word for the wise. Anyone who has a shit ton of 22lr stored up most certainly has plenty of big boy calibers too. They won't be sending 22lr your way when you think you're safe to attack them from 400 yards out

    Last I heard the going prices are around a Kidney and some sketchy sexual favors.

    Jeeez, you guys have no sense of humor. Why 400 yards, because 22lr accuracy- let alone scope adjustments- don't let most 22lr guns shoot that far. There are all kinds of posts and videos and articles about people thinking that 22lr will be the new cash for EOTWAWKI. So these guys have mountains of 22lr - kind of like the Y2K jokes about not stockpiling food or water because I have an AR.

    I have plenty of ammo, I just don't like use 1 - lose 1 when you can't replace them. Like I've said, I just wish there was more pre-ordering of ammo for a few months down the road.
    I'll stop buying black rifles when my wife stops buying black shoes.
