XD45 7,124 Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 Anybody says they're getting a brick for $12 these days I call shenanigans. I'm still seeing $50 a brick and a limit. The reason they're still selling it for that price is that people are still paying it. I'll just keep the 22s in the safe at that price. I've never paid .10 for 22, never will. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoeAK 337 Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 I haven't seen a brick that cheap for like 10 years here. Before the panic it was $20-25 for a Federal value pack locally. But then, prices on gun related stuff around here generally suck. The first time I shot my 7.62x39, I bought a few 20 round packs of Wolf 154gr. SP for $9, then I looked online and found everyone else was getting the same thing for around $4. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sobrenegade 795 Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 It will be just like gas. Until some manufacturer decides to glut the market and drive the price down (back to where it was), Darth's assessment is true. Where's the Saudis of .22s? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Capt Nemo 882 Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 Fleet Farm has done their best to keep prices down, and that's why the shelf is bare! Thunderbolt bricks ~$21 up $4 Winchester 333 packs ~$14 CCI Mini-Mag ~$7.49 up $1 When the panic broke they had people sweeping shelves into shopping carts! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
montec 164 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Darth I was talking 9mm not 22 with my response. Last I paid was 20 for fed blue box 525pk. It's been awhile since I bought 22. And I have a decision to make too as to when to take my son out to get him going and wither I should skip the bb gun and go straight to the 22. Considering my step dad just gave him a compound bow. Oh and he turns 6. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GregB72 2 Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 Here in Western NC, i can get it from a couple of local shops for @.08 to .10 per round. Not stocking up, but do pick up some every now and then. GregB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
