Eblake: On an extended road trip to seek out guns and ammo YESTERDAY, we stopped in 5 towns on our 280 mile venture and stopped in at least 13 gunshops, sporting goods stores and hardware stores (here in Montana the hardware stores sell guns and ammo!) and there indeed IS a 22 ammo shortage!
In fact if we had found virtually ANY 22 ammo it would have been purchased!
Only ammo in "stock" ANYWHERE seemed to be 454 Casull pistol ammo!
Its been this way for about 2 months in these parts!
Yeah your "one of" incident probably did NOT put an end to the "22 ammo shortage"!
I hope you bought your allotment.

You would have bought "ANY 22 ammo". Funny right there. Go to Nevada, they have a chidt ton of it. The same ammo the op talks about was $180.00 a couple months ago when I was in winnemucca and reno. You can go there and buy all that you want. Guys like you that will go and buy "ANY 22 ammo" is part of the reason it's hard to find. Threads like these are funny. Im glad I have a stockpile. I dont even look for 22lr right now. Had to buy a 10/22, so I can burn up some of what I do have.
