Wow, I was Able to Git Some!

Post by GonnePhishin »

Went down to one of the local stores the other day and was actually able to buy 6 (six), yes 6 boxes of thunderbolt 22's for $2.99 each :shock:
Man oh man was I ever surprised. Gentleman told me that he thought the supply was starting to loosen up. Hope he was right.

So you're saying it wasn't a wasted trip.

Rimfire ammo in the UK, well at least in my neck of the woods, is becoming a little bit more available. :D

We have had 22 on the shelf again for a while. The price is 8-10 cents a round but it's there. I watch 22 on the internet and it is available again. The price seems to be going down about 1 cent a week. I bought some last week at 6 cents a round. It seems like the mania is over.

Good for you. :D


I read where somebody got their backordered case of CCI Mini Mags from Midway the other day. They ordered theirs in December of 13. I ordered mine in January of 14 so maybe it's getting closer.

Of course, they've also been randomly canceling some backorders so it's like playing the Powerball. :(

The thing is once you can get it, no one will want it. Availability will break the spell.

I was down to 300 pieces of new Winchester 45 Colt brass, and less than 50 200 gr .452 RFN bullets... so off I went to the bullet store... WOOHOO! One box left... but... after searching online for some 45Colt brass, only found nickel ones... the local fun store had 400... so a box of 500 bullets, 400 pcs of brass, a K 209 primers and a couple of other odds & ends... gosh, I'm broke! Glad I had fuel in the truck!

I have, over the last three weeks bought 6 Federal Bulk Pack (525 rnds) of 22.cal for $38.00 a piece, still higher than I like, but at least I found some... :)
