 Yeah BS, if it was out there, "everyone" wouldn't be asking the same question.

Which store in Wenatchee?

Sooner or later those who are buying it whenever and wherever they see it are going to realize that they might not really have a need for any more .22 ammo since they already have 50,000 rounds stored in the basement, "Just in case."  When those guys finally figure that out, then the rest of us will be able to go buy a box when we decide we would like to take the grandson out for the day of fun plinking.

Right on Todd.

The problem is that we have all been so scared of not being able to purchase any for so long, when it does show up in arms reach, we become the next guy to stock up. I have a bunch in the safe, and almost hate taking a brick out and shooting it up, cause I do not see the end yet in mass hoarding. Pretty sad taking that $9 brick of 500 out, shooting it up and replacing it with a new brick for how much?

What are you getting for a brick?

[Special T]

I read an email a month ago that broke the 22lr ammo shortage down. It used rough numbers of every 22 gun owner and only distribution from Walmart... 2 years worth of production for each  gun owner IF they only purchased 2 bricks.

Simple supply and demand. Once the super hardcore guys buy enough, then the opportunist hoarders, then the casual stock up, and then it's back to normal.

I have zero doubt that we'll have ten dollar bricks again.

O.K Then ...I think we need a supplier for HW ....I would sure think if you had enough supplies and fair prices that HW members would keep you in business Whats the laws on sending live ammo ??

[wildmanoutdoors]

Sending live ammo is easy as pie!
I bought a couple cases of 22 lr from Hooked on toys and they sent it to Port Orchard for just UPS fees. It was cheap and hassle free!

[WoodlandShooter]

for SHTF, I sure would not want to be the guy with a stockpile of 22LR...and have to go up against someone with bigger-badder-faster-longer....

JMHO

fyi, I have a ruger 10-22 for my kids to learn on...
