I know that this has been talked about at length but I haven't seen any updates on the topic lately.

It seems so strange to me that 22 ammo is in such short supply....but because it is, I want to buy some bulk.

Any places online have bulk 22 LR ammo in stock? What places are you guys finding 22 lr ammo, if any?

TIA

I am in FL....I can find 100 count for 10 bucks all day at the local gun shops but I'm talking about some bulk stuff that I can get for 5cents a round instead of 10cents a round.

I've been checking 3-4 times a day for the last week and have never seen any "out of stock" labels change.....?

Our Wal Marts in the BR area have been getting. I bought 2 1000 RD bricks this week. I usually see Remington Golden bullets on the shelf (50 RD boxes).

I don't understand why the rush to buy 22 ammo it's not going anywhere. I'm glad i've got 1500 rounds.

How much did the brick run ya? I haven't seen Walmart marking anything up so I'm assuming regular price but I just can't seem to bump into any bricks here in Orlando. Although, I think that they normally stock too much of that here versus what the normally stock in LA

Why the rush


I dont get it either....but my rush is because I need some to plink with and I don't want to pay 10cents a round....I don't mind buying in bulk to get 5cents a round but because people are "stocking up" on 22lr....it's hard to find the now.

If you live close to a BPS, I'd suggest doing what I did 2 weeks ago. I couldn't find any 22LR ammo at WM, Academy or BPS. I ordered some items at the BPS online store so I could use a BPS gift card. Although it was listed as "backordered", I ordered a 500 rd box of Remington Golden Bullets; I was curious how long it would take to receive the order. I had the order delivered free to my local BPS (55 miles away) w/ free shipping. The bullets were delivered in 2 weeks. My wife was already on a shopping trip to Bossier City so I asked her to pick them up. Price wasn't much more expensive than what I would've paid at WM. It was a whole lot more convenient this way and much less aggravating than driving to a the store only to find the shelves empty. In fact, I turned around and order a #333 round box of Winchester 22 LR's. Not all ammo is available for backorder. For example, the #666 round box of Winchester could not be backordered.
