Capt Nemo 882 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 One of the places charging stupid prices for bricks had them marked down $10. Need another $19 to go before I'd consider buying there. Looks like the same amount of stock they had before the election. The only stores I don't mind paying higher prices at are those that held their prices down during the panic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Squeaky 135 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 I just wish .22 Magnum would come back to stores too. I see .17 HMR and .22 LR everywhere. Why no .22 Magnum? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't jump on the opportunistic seller's deal until it is too good to pass up. They lose money Problem is if a panic gets going the guys that keep prices down sell out first and then it's all gouging. So... keep stocked I guess. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Demand, production conflicts and limits, Savage is bringing out a semi auto in 17HMR IIRC so others will follow, maybe they see that. Between the two the HMR would be my pick just a heck of a neat round that just needed the right rifle IMO. Time will tell Quote Link to post Share on other sites
montec 164 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 $20 a brick of 500 is my price point to buy. The lead round nose is just fine for plinking and introducing new and young shooters Quote Link to post Share on other sites
XD45 7,124 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 Prices on everything are starting to drop. The Trump Calm has arrived. Pretty soon it will be the manufacturers, distributors, and retailers that will be in panic. In the next few months we're going to see deals everywhere. Guns, ammo, accessories. I know some good companies are going to suffer but the pendulum has to swing. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The anti crowd and the plants to distroy this country are all in a panic during the next few weeks, as seen with the latest shooting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HB of CJ 1,263 Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 Remember when Buy Mart had Winchester kinda cheapo Wildcat brick ammo on sale for $7.95 a brick with no limit? No sales tax either. This was quite a few years ago. No limit. The lady asked if I wanted a case of 5000. She showed me a complete pallet full in the back. When they had no Wildcat, she offered Super X instead at the same price. Since I had plenty of .22rf ammo then I passed. Wow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GregM1 241 Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 i saw 22 wmr for 8c/round at wal mart this week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vance665 225 Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 My local Wal-Mart has been completely out of .22 for several weeks. It was good over the summer at times and I stocked up already. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rhodes1968 1,638 Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Until CCI Subsonic comes back on the market there is just nothing I need or want in 22LR. Found a good stop gap in RWS but well stocked on that so not really as interested in price as I am in availability of specific ammo. Big fan of CCI just dont need the mini-mags. Fed Champion is going at 5 cents so maybe a good sign maybe not. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
