Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires Ammo Shortages?

So! Go out and buy buy buy, don't get caught with your pants down again, storage will be coming again, bet on it

After the hemorrhoid in the Middle East flared up and some goat [bleep] there called for global jihad the 223 / 5.56 and 9MM was gone locally for a few weeks.

Even when things were halfway decent before FJB there were shortages. One crazy event might make it all evaporate again.

If it’s available now, who cares how much anyone buys. Same with TP or anything else. It’s not like anyone is waiting in line to buy what’s available each morning at the stores like a few years ago. If it gets to that again, the re-sellers and hoarders can F off and leave it for those that really need some. It’s like the housing situation. It’s not young people or even older people’s fault they came into the market to buy their first house when prices are high and the rates suck. People get into this at different times and shouldn’t be looked down upon because of it.

Words to the wise:

Make hay while the sun shines.

Save for a rainy day.

A .22 saved is a .22 earned.



Ammoseek.com is showing prices of 4.3 cents per round for Armscor, although shipping will bite you on those. Looking at free shipping only, Federal Champion can be had for 5.7 cpr, Automatch at 5.9. Various CCI types and Norma Tac-22 are 6 to 8 cpr. Even with inflation those are lower prices than two years ago.



You know the difference between sex and .22 ammo?

It's possible to have enough sex. (Okay, that's debatable, but you get the idea.)

The link I posted above has Aguila for 2.09/50. That price is very hard to beat.

I have enough 22 to last more than my life time

I know a whole bunch of selfish clods who have earned a special place on GW's schidt list. No Christmas cards for you this year.

Had anyone done business with this Co.? Hard to google.

Liked Aguila SV in the past, wouldn't mind having a case of it laid back.

OK? But wtf you gonna do next weekend? Mb

Some red flags. No phone number. No address. Not much history to be found on google.

If you’re concerned, it’s your fail. Fix your insecurities by stocking up. It’s all available.

Bout 2 yrs back at one of the flea markets I often attend, guy had those same hollow points for $2.49 per box of 50. I bought 5 and when I seen how they shot in my lever 22 I went back the next week and bought the brick he had left. $5 per 100 was a good price especially during a time when everybody acted like anything shooting related was the last that was ever gonna be made.

They shoot like a laser in that lever, but interestingly enough are ho-hum in a savage that typically shoots well.

I just don't shoot that much. I cash in my CC points every month for 1-2K rounds, maintaining at least a 10K stock at home. It works for me. Lay in whatever you need for you.

I also looked and not much to be said about them on the innanets…

I did send them an email asking about shipping to CA and they responded rather quickly

Like an idiot , I ordered some ammo from them. Also sent an email and got a pretty fast response

It is rare that I order online, thought I did some research and completely missed the warning signs. We shall see

Keep us posted please.

Will do.

How did you pay?

I found that link on another forum, AR15.com. Orders were filled and quickly. They also have a good deal onfederal SRP and SPP. The Aguila is back to regular price today

Debit card. Asked the CU to watch and they are. Hoping for the best and I feel stupid.

If you want to see an ammo shortage, start talking about an ammo shortage. It becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
