Let's crash the market for 22 LR ammo starting today!
According to the press releases from manufactures of 22 LR ammo they're cranking it out just as fast as they can.
Prices for 22 LR are still outrageous because of hoarders and speculators of this ammo are buying up stocks at way over valued prices.
Together we can pop this 22 LR bubble!
Make a personal pledge not to buy even a single round of 22 LR until June of 2015.
Nothing, nada, not one single round of 22 LR from nobody, from nowhere for any reason.
If someone offers you a brick of 500 rounds for $12.00 on May 15, tell you'll get in touch with them on June 1.
Please copy and post this to other shooting websites you frequent.

Thanks,

Walked into Academy yesterday and they had a huge stack of 22LR. Sorry, but I picked some up for Christmas stocking stuffers, so nice idea but count me out.

I'd bet the persons responsible aren't reading this thread, much less this forum.

I have yet to 'walk in and find stacks of .22 LR for sale'
If I were to find any for sale, the shock would probably kill me.

I've been seeing fairly good supply at several LGS, prices still too high IMO. $50 for brick of plain Remington and Federal.

I'm not going to have to decide not to buy any. Somebody else has decided that for me by not providing any for me to buy�

This would leave more for the other hoarders.

I'm still trying to figure out why I need 10,000+ rounds of .22 rimfire.

If this works you can get back to your main plan of everyone not buying gas one particular day and bakrupting the oil companies.

there's a better way to crash the market
it's just like stocks
sell all you have!
