I still have an order for 2,500 rounds from sportman outdoor from last December that has not been fulfilled... It's crazy. I wouldn't have thought that this 22 dry spell would have lasted this long. I find some online from time to time, but it sucks paying shipping when there are restrictions on number of boxes.

That's only ammo that will kill the purple zombies.
I'm not even sure it's all that scarce any more, you just have speculators buying it all up.

Elk City Wal Mart had about 10 boxes of .17 Hmr on the shelf last week.

Academy on 240 had some 22 yesterday afternoon. But it looked like it was all 50rd boxes and rat shot. I'm hopeing to run across a bulk box to give as a christmas gift. lol

I just want to get some so that I can go out and shoot a few of my 22 riles and pistols.
I actually enjoy shooting 22...or at least I used to when I could actually buy some ammo.
As far as all the people who are buying it at double or more the price, I dont get that at all.
I would just rather shoot something else then pay $50 or more for a brick.
