I'm in Champlin. Send me a PM if you need any .22LR.
I'd be glad to help you out.

Key elements are missing: Anti-Obama propaganda, usually entailing the popular "One Big Ass Mistake America" slogan, a 4-6 table booth of knives, a table of Estate stuff, another one selling overpriced rare/vintage reloaded rounds, a ******* booth of war scrap, and of course BEEF JERKY!!!!!

How many did they have left after you picked up your 10 boxes?

Brooklyn Park FF had those last week. Picked up only two as I had no idea if Magtech was any good. Have not opened the box or shot it yet.

Edit..
Just stopped in Brooklyn Park FF this afternoon. Good 30+ boxes of Magtech 9mm still on the shelf and if that's gone a good number of Remington UMC 9mm for $2 more.

Tons of auctions on Gunbroker with zero bids for 22LR. Total auctions is up 200-300 as you aren't allowed to list on Armslist no more. Only thing selling is case lots and not too rediculous either. Still none on the shelves yet. A definite sign of the times they are a changing?

I'm not up on the entire 22lr ammo market prices, but I usually watch for a good price on Wolf Match.
The prices on GunBroker, where there are actually bids, are still 50-75%+ over what I'd be willing to pay.
At least one auction is at approx $0.20/rd shipped, and the reserve has not been met...thats for a 5000rd case.... B.I.N. price is >$0.22/rd more than 2x what I paid last year.
The stuff advertised in emails from Midway, etc usually sell out in minutes...and not at bargain prices.
22lr seemed to be making appearances last week, but didn't last on the interlink shelves.

He means 22 sellers. The gougers flag the reasonable sales, and everyone else flags the gougers.

I spend little time on Armslist- Does flagging an ad automatically delete it?

If so, it sounds like a recipe for M.A.D. -Mutually Assured Destruction.

When the ad has been flagged enough times, then "the community has spoken" and your ad is removed. Deleted. Gone. You can "flag" for what ever reason, being you feel it spam or scam or over priced or inappropriate. A few "buddies" can band together and have the ad removed with in minutes of it being posted. It's up, it's gone, it's up, it's gone again. 22LR ammos adds are taboo on there now. Whether fairly priced or not. They are going to fix the national shortage :)

On the other hand, it's a private (as opposed to government) community enforcing their own community standards. Anyone who doesn't like it can set up their own website with their own rules.

What are the "standards" exactly? I looked through the Terms Of Use and the FAQ. I didn't find anything that says how much you're allowed ask or not ask for .22lr ammo or any other ammo for that matter.

I don't care if it's public, private, or otherwise. I fully support their right to run it anyway they like. Just like I support my right to point out their hypocrisy.

This is getting off topic so further debate should probably be continued in a new thread.
