22lr ammo shortage

[BigDog58]

$80 a brick is a steal on G-broker!

This is one of the better deals you'll find on Gunbroker, 525 rounds of Federal 22lr for $65. The guy is in Maple Lake so you might not even have to pay shipping.

Dang, I just let another member have a box for $30 so he could have fun at the range. Does that mean I'm not a Gouger or just dumb? I slept well knowing another board member had .22 lr ammo at the same price I paid for it. After seeing that I might have to put a few thousand up on GB and more than double my money

Nah, it just means you're not an a-hole.

I gave a few thousand rounds to a local Boy Scout troop a little while ago. I may not have as much pocket cash as if I sold it for 50 bucks/500, but I sleep better......

DNR must have plenty of it. Told me at volunteer firearms safety training a while back that they have plenty for the classes when we have our field days.

I think the DNR has a contract with Federal to supply so much .22lr to them each year, plus the DNR probably bought a whole truck load at one time where we who teach the boy scouts have to buy this ammo our selves and fight the gougers just like every one else does.

I have to have 5 to 6 thousand rounds by Mid may for just 80 scouts. I don't have but 4 thousand right now. We are planning on using pellet rifles to teach sight adjustment and alignment then the .22 rifles to shoot for score.

I heard from a CO that there is a small garage in ST. Paul some where that is stacked with pallets full of American Eagle ammo.
