Supply/Demand economics aren't taking place to bring back the supply. Since 22LR is so cheap, people keep stacking. If manufacturers were smart, they would raise prices A LOT short term in order to curb the panic buying. Even if they sell fewer boxes, the increased profit would keep them whole. As the panic mindset dies down and people stop buying, the price can slowly be lowered back down.

Perfect example is .223/556. Prices got to a stupid level and the panic buying curbed. Prices lowered slowly over the past 1-1.5 years to where it is now, cheaper than before Sandy Hook and available everywhere.
