...or are you waiting for them to be gone too or the prices to go up?

Always. But then again, Airguns aren't firearms. Well, not yet anyways.
But the way things are going with the government, I wouldn't be surprised.

Yes, I have been stocking up. As of right now my R7 is going to get a workout this summer, because of the .22LR ammo shortage.
I'm glad I have an R7

I have 12 cans of Crosman Premier 22 cal pellets (6000), that should last me a summer, well that will depend on how many birds lands in my yard.

When I get going, I easily shoot over 1000 pellets a month. I need a lot of pellets.

I'm only stocking up on assault pellets  I haven't been shooting my airguns enough lately to worry about stocking up.

I have a couple thousand pellets for my R9 - I pick up a tin about every week - like you said, doubt it will get cheaper or easier to find - just look at .22lr ammo.

I have a stash for if needed, and about 10K for target shooting.

I remember that lead round balls for my muzzle loader got somewhat scarce in January, several web sites said "Out of stock, back order". Have not seen any issue with lead pellets for BB's both of which I have been shooting heavily due to regular ammo shortage situation from people hoarding the last few months.

Thanks a lot. Just ordered 12 tins from Pyramid Air. Got 3 free. In both .177 and .25 caliber. And also picked up 3 mounts and 3 Nikon 4x Rimfire scopes. I guess I'm getting serious.
Shot the Ruger Air Hawk last night. Also have a Gamo Whisper and a RWS RM 600 all in .177 and a Beeman Kodiak in .25.
