:rotf:

Sounds like the telephone game from kindergarten.

And ammo doesn't go out Fedex.

I've got some oceanside property in MN for sale, interested?


Is it Indian or arctic ocean side? if it is arctic I am not interested. Do not want to deal with the polar bears.

As a matter of fact, it just happens to be on the Indian side! You are in luck! 8-)

I don't know about FedEx personally, but UPS picks up at the Federal plant. We don't ship pallets of the stuff, but individual cases......lots and lots and lots of cases of ammo going out UPS to every freakin sporting goods store in the country.

Just noticed 1050 rounds of .22LR on Armslist for $65.00….or 6.2 cents a round. Not bad considering what guys were trying sell them for a few months back!

Yes I'm sure, it was my listing! It was both boxes for $65.00 total and I sold them in two hours.

I bought my M&P Shield 9mm Friday night for $399 from my local dealer. And they also had plenty of 9mm in stock. So things are starting to get better for sure.

I hate to see this thread slip quietly into the night so BTT. Also, for the first time since Sandy I found federal bulk packs at walmart this last week.

Last employee I talked to at Federal in Anoka said no employee discount on rimfire. Meaning no rimfire sold to employees.

You "noticed" your own listing? You must be "speshul"...
And yes, at that price it should sell quickly given that demand for 22LR obvioulsly still far exceeds supply.
