Anyone having luck finding ammo?

[rcos]

I was in Cabelas in Owatana around 5ish and they were still stocking the shelves with ammo.

They had PMC, Remington, Blazer Brass in 9 FMJ. They had a ton of PMC JHP and other Brands as well.

Blazer wasnt on the shelf when I went through (we bought then went back in to browse and it was on the shelf) so i picked up Remington and PMC. Haven't shot PMC before so hopefully its decent stuff.

Thanks all for the assistance!

The Hudson Fleet Farm had many boxes for 100rd 40 s&w and 45 acp this afternoon along with some reloading stuff.

I've seen .223/5.56 and .308 on the shelves in every store I've hit lately, 2 of which had no limits on purchase quantity and priced at or just above 50 cents a round including at least 3-4 examples topic pick from in 20 round boxes of 62/55 grain FMJ. Fleet Farm has stocked tons of 7.62x39 Hotshot every time I've walked through lately along with plenty of the 55 grain Federal and Winchester PSP .223 hunting stuff and a couple odd 250 packs of .380. I've seen .40 all over, .45 is semi common... 9mm and .22 remain nearly impossible to find in stock.

Last time I was in Oakdale FF,about a week ago, there was no .223/5.56, no rimfire, and only some .40 S&W, and a bit of .45 Colt to be found. Probably as empty as I've seen it.

Dicks in MG has XM193 for $10/20rds

I stopped in a few places in Red Wing today and the only thing I didn't see was 9mm. Saw AE .45 for $48/100 round box, Winchester 230grn .45 hollow points for $39/50 round box, even .22lr (CCI and some odd brand) for $4.99/box of 50. I picked up Remington large pistol primers for $4.99/100 and they also had CCI primers.

Yesterday the Walmart in Faribault had Federal 9mm for $13.97/50, Federal and Wichester .45 for $21 - $22/ box of 50. They also had .40, .380, and alot of rifle calibers. Talked to the clerk there and he said Walmart has .22lr in the warehouse but didn't know which stores would be getting it.

Stopped by Walmart...figuring I'd look anyways... There was actually 40,45 and 22 mag on the shelf.. Picked up my 3 box limit of 22 mag...and so did the Mrs. Haven't seen 22wmr on the shelf in a year. I think things are easing....
But I won't call it over until I can walk in and buy as much 22 as I can afford to carry out.

Good luck with Winchester red box 1000 packs. But sell fast when I see them. The better stores don't do "limits" so when stock comes in, not unusual to sell 20 packs of 1000K in a shopping cart. Cabela and fleet farm good supply it seems

Was at Rogers/Cabela's grabbing some ammo and some more pmags.....Lots of ammo even 9mm. Seems like things are coming back and I feel sorry for those folks who paid $30-$40 for 1 pmag and up to $2 per round of .223/5.56.

Anyway some guy was complaining that he couldn't find 5.56.....Low and behold there was a bunch on the main shelves infront of his douche-e face as I pointed it to him. He was b*tching about the price of $27 for 20 rounds. I said to myself what a freaking douche-bag. So then I said, well there are some at the end cap for $12 a box, he proceeds and says that's much better.

So I scoot on over to the handgun ammo after grabbing some boxes of 5.56.

This douche-bag grabs a worker and asks about 5.56, from which i already pointed the crap to him and proceeds to again, b*tch about the price, limit, and their selection of 5.56..

I swear I wanted to tell him,"look here douche-bag!! If you are b*tching about prices and limits, you should have bought your share about hmmm let's say 9-12 months ago"

My wife was like, I don't know much about ammo but man that guy is a d*ck.

Both Cabela's and Gander in Rogers had very full ammo shelves today. About the only thing scarce was 9mm and, of course, no .22LR to be found. Prices do seem plenty high, but Cabela's did have .223 in 20 rd boxes for $5.99 (Herters maybe?).

I picked up a Savage MKII BTVS Saturday. Spent the evening conditioning the barrel and doing a trigger job. Then it struck me. I shot my 10/22 last when Bush was president and my High Standard HD Military once last year. What do I have for 22 ammo on hand? I found a 3 surplus plastic 50rd boxes I topped off with Remington Bulk HP back around 2005, but that was it. Dove into my garage sale box and found partial boxes of 20-30 old Federal Monark, Rem Hi Vel, and Federal Hi Power. Well, they'd do for barrel break-in and zeroing the scope I thought. Some shot well, others had a lot of vertical stringing, but they got me through an enjoyable 3 hours at the range today (in the shade).

Now what? When I bought the rifle from Arnzen, I had hoped they had boxes stashed for sale to people who bought guns there. Dream on. Slipped across the freeway to GM and once again left asking myself why I even bother going there. Swung by FF in Carver and nada.

Looking back on the recent times I picked up other ammo I didn't need to sell to the locals at cost, perhaps I should have been on the lookout for some 22 also. Ya' Think!

If anyone gets a line on either bulk or quality 22 ( I'd like to try both), non-scalped, please PM me night or day. I'm in front of a PC almost all the time at work and within earshot of a smart phone often when I'm not at work. Still want to try and find what my rifle shoots well. It did turn two 5-shot 1/2 MOA 50 yd groups, but not reliably with the stuff I took there. One was with the old Remington Hi Vel SP and one with the Federal Monarch SP. The bulk Federal HP stuff I have the most of, not so well. Still, it was fun to go to the range without having to set up my chrony for some centerfire rifle experiment. Just have fun! Since the wind was almost non-existent, I even tried 10) 100 yd shots of the bulk Rem. Centering was good, but POI was -5 1/2 inches and vertical stringing was from -5 1/2 to -8 1/2 low. Guess you got to sort them by weight and rim thickness to play at 100 yd. That or not use old ammo.

Thanks,

Hoot

BTW, Fit and function of the rifle was great, but then I love the ergonomics of thumbhole stocks. Have four others.

Seeing more and more 40/9/45/10/38/357. The bigger shops are getting pallets on a regular basis. I believe I saw on a different thread, a declaration of "shortage is over" .... I am leaning that direction with cautious optimism. ( doesn't apply to ALL 22 choices)
