Where is all the .22 Magnum ammunition?
« on: December 06, 2016, 05:53:36 PM »
So I can find it when I really look, but Cabela's hasn't had it in months (according to one of their reps). There was only one 50 round box of it at Sportsmen's last time I was there. So now I can find all the 22 LR I want but have to make 3 or 4 stops to find (overpriced) 22 Mag? A lot of the online places are out of stock or charging a lot more for it. Any ideas or conspiracy theories?

It's not as bad as the 22LR was a while back but it isn't super easy to find everywhere. And the price has been going up on them quickly. 15.00 for the same box I paid 12.00 for last spring.

Economy failure = Too many people spending money they don't have on things they don't need to impress people they don't like.

Where????

Its been put on the back burner at the plants,   17hmr ammo is what they want sold in stores now days!

No other explanation that I can see!!    17hmr's have never been in short supply ever since the hoarding started YET 22 mag disappeared.  :dunno:
The only good tree, is a stump!

Found some of the A22 Magnum (same box design as the A17 for the HMR) at The Marksman in Puyallup. 75.00 for 200 rounds (a little steep considering a 200 rd box of the A17 is like 60 bucks elsewhere.) But it's available (averages $18.75 a box plus tax !!!!). I pity anyone who owns the Keltec PMR-30!
