I have maybe 8k. As supplies increase and price slides down I'll get maybe 10k more
That was my situation also, and for the same reason. I'd buy on sale with the idea that it won't be cheaper in the future and it doesn't go bad despite my poor storage in garages, attics, and basements over decades.I bought fairly regularly before the shortage, but only when it came on sale. So when the shortage hit I had about 15k rounds of 22lr. Never had to buy any for the last 4 years until I found a sale recently, decent ammo for a decent price.
I am tired of 325 boxes of Automatch. It is about all I have seen from Federal since Sandy Hook. I want some 500 or 550 boxes of 36gr plated.
Fella's;
It's funny here in central Montana, many of the normal retailers have .22 rimfire regardless of the variety. However, Wally-World just opened a second store in Great Falls, the super-sized one, no .22 at either location. I suspect that for some reason that Wal-Mart has concluded that either they can't make enough money on it, or the imported store managers are not firearms friendly.
I think maybe where you are the hoarders seem to go to wal mart first so they may be buying it up. where I am the kid behind the counter told me that cops come in and buy what they have. don't know if it is for their personal use or not. hard to believe in Montana they would not be gun friendly for business sake disregarding personal beliefs

you can also be buried with the 22 RF like the Pharaohs were buried with their treasure . on forums I have seen pics of guys older then you with 6 ft high stacks of 22 RFFor a few years there I would buy 22lr whenever I was able. But recently I stopped even looking because I only use about 200 rounds a month and have enough on the shelves for at least a few years of shooting. Being almost 74 I don't want to keep spending on ammo that might end up being tossed by my widow at some point. I have no idea if it is available or not locally.
you are exactly right but I don't think it will happenLunacy will not be over until 550 packs of federal are back in Walmart for under $19, period.
I have gone once and a while to 4 different wal marts for years and Big Foot is seen more then 22 RF. but there is always a couple of guys that say they have tons in their wal martI went to Walmart yesterday. Not a. 22 round in sight.

Sometimes you have to ask if they have any rather than scanning the glass case.I went to Walmart yesterday. Not a. 22 round in sight.
