Welcome to the forum, and the 'I can't find 9mm/.223/.22 long rifle' club.

If anyone publicly posted a reliable source it would likely be wiped out before you got there. There are plenty of desparate buyers, resellers and hoarders out there trolling for supply reports in forums like these, some with plenty of time on their hands. Your best bet is to set up your own search pattern of stores and make the rounds to see if you can get lucky and arrive around the time the shelves get stocked... or find places to "go fishing" where other fisherman are not (again, you'll have to figure this out). Get on the "notify when in stock" list or backorders at online retailers and have your credit card ready to go...

.. "just" as in today/yesterday or a week ago? I was there yesterday around 2 PM and the shelves were bare.

Cabelas in Rogers has a lot of .223 PMC and some steel case. Just there a half hour ago. They got it in last night and still have a lot left.

I am going to have to call BS on this one. lol
I was there a little after 11 on my way to the bank and they said there was none in the shipment today.
But they did have about 10,000 rounds of 9mm. (just kidding)

Don't be so sure. One forum member was at Carver FF yesterday at 4pm and saw zero .22 bulk packs. I was there at 4:30 and they had some on the shelf.

I have 300 round sealed 5.56X45 battle-packs for sale for $200.00 each.

Send PM's only - wait for answer as I am currently at hospital in waiting room for surgery on wife.

4 maybe 5 battle-packs available.

Must pickup at my facility or make arrangements to meet near United Hospital on my schedule.

I may have sealed 7.62X51 battle-packs - will look when I get home.

I do have 2000+ 7.62X51 loose rounds and some in 20 round boxes.

Let me know.

Have a friend that has an FFL and just ordered a stock pile form what he was telling me. Do not know if they are in yet, but I could always ask. If so , I am sure he will be more than willing to let me post his info and make himself some money. :mrgreen:
