These people selling 22 ammo at scalpers prices...that's about like somebody that sets your house on fire then jumps on the fire truck to come put it out. Are they some kind of hero for that ?

The people that pay these scalpers prices are just throwing kerosene on the blaze.

Free enterprise ? [bleep] that , these people are doing more damage to the shooting sports than the liberal gun grabbers are.

I refuse to pay scalpers. It would be great if nobody paid their absurd prices, but people can sometimes be led astray. I understand the manufacturers are ramping up production, so we very well could see some panic SELLING soon enough.

As long as idiots keep paying scalper prices, those will be the prices. Good luck on getting the idiots to stop it.

You guys are full of crap. Taking drugs??? You expect to see the price of ammo drop back to 8 years ago??? The prices of ammo that's available easily now hasn't. Maybe your stupid, maybe you spend to much time on here to see what's going on in the real world.

When gas hits $4.00 per gallon again, I refuse to buy it. I'll travel daily by bicycle.

Nobody said anything about 8 year old prices. May be you need to crawl back up the caribous azz.

I was at a gun show in my area last Saturday and a brick of 22 ammo was selling for 65 dollars......I'm not sure how many were sold at that price but there were people buying....As long as people continue to pay those asinine prices it will be a long time before supply gets better.....As for me, they'll have to "eat" those 22's before I'll pay that price....

The non-scalper price of a bulk pack or brick of 22 ammo has only gone up a couple dollars in the last 8 years , not 300-400%

22 ammo too high, quit shooting it.

Contrary to popular belief, there is 22 ammo available if you look for it, but it isn't and probably will never be at pre-scare prices ever again. We will never buy gas under $2 a gallon either, so consider it the "new normal" and move on.

I have 4 daughters that go to the range with me from April to December am I supposed to stop spending quality time with them cause of the price of ammo we have been shooting 223 and 22-250 but they like to shoot my 39 and two 8 8 0SQ I am sorry if I am a fool for paying those prices but to me you guys are the fools. Prices will never come down to where they were and my quality time is worth more than that to me. All in each persons perspective.y the way we can go thru a 1000rds in a day with no problem.

I Agree, But Scalpers Is Not The Only Problem,
CHINA is another, Drove the Cost Of Brass and Other Metals Through the roof the Past 8 Years, not only in 22 Rim, But all Other Brass has Gone Up.
and The Big boys Play around with Supply.
If Every Body Stop Buying, then Prices Would Drop some.
