Local Source for 5.7X28mm

I guess I'm late to the party. I've got a 5.7 but am coming up empty on ammo. Anyone have a lead?

My dad has one also that he got this summer. Ammo has been tough to find all over. He ended up going to Cabelas and ordering a case from them on backorder. Took about 3 weeks to get it. I would suggest buying boxes you find here and there. Or this ad on armslist.

I dont know prices on this ammo, so I dont know if this is a good price or not. Good luck on your search.

Scheels in Mankato has American Eagle brand and I think they only want $22 a box?

5.7 is indeed hard to find, and the Gander in Woodbury has always had a few boxes on hand every time I have been in there, albeit at nosebleed prices. Good for emergencies, I guess.

Haven't bought any locally for a while. Last time I did, I bought it at Bill's in Robbinsdale and it was the same price as on-line.
