I don't "stock up" on ammo. Don't use it.

Had an uncle that would stock up his favorite beer when it went on sale.



I have a lifetime supply. There's about a half a can left of my 5mm

Sheridan air rifle pellets. It held 500 rounds when I got it about 50

years ago.



My Crossman ammo dried up. Good target and varmint pistol.

Mice.

Crosman makes great stuff anymore. their .177 "Cock and pull" pellet
rifles hit just as hard as a .22.


I had a Ruger .177 pellet rifle but recently gave it to my son-in-law.
It shoots lead pellets at a muzzle velocity of 1200 fps and the "high
velocity" type pellets at 1400 fps. When fired, it is louder than my
.22LR rifle (also a Ruger).


Gamo is making silenced pellet guns these days. Since it is not a
"firearm" they can put a .22 style suppressor on it without running
afoul of NFA34


I am not sure why the pellet gun is louder than the .22LR rifle. Both
have supersonic velocities as the round leaves the barrel. The pellet
gun might have a slightly higher velocity depending on what type of ammo
is used in the .22 rifle (standard or high velocity). It can't be mass
because the .22 is bigger. Beats me.

Of course the velocity at 25 yards or more is going to be much different
between the two.


It depends on the .22 ammo. I have some 65 gr .22rf that is pretty
quiet out of a rifle. Better than my Sheridan .177 pumped up to oh
wow.


Hell, I still have some 22 or I probably paid $1.25 a 50 rd box.

You might like gunbot a little better.

Everything less than 16 cents a shot is sold out.

That is still pretty spendy for .22 rf



Indeed, the gun boys did a wonderful job ramping up paranoia among the
sheeples.

We are talking about availability. Ammo is available and it is available in quantities.

You sure seem to have a number of absurdities running around your brain.

I don't have that much ammo, and most of it was purchased long before
the gun nutsies made a run for it all. In fact, I sold off about half a
thousand rounds of 9mm ammo. Recently, I've purchased a few boxes of .45
ACP and LC, and two boxes of .22LR, mostly mail order from Natchez,
along with other small quantities of ammo bundled in for a couple of
buddies so we could split the freight cost.

Default Ammo Shortage

Who was it who continually harassed the staff of Wal-Mart every morning last year in an effort to grab every last bullet before anyone else could get a share?

Wait until he finds out the new ammo manager at his local Wal-Mart is a
black gay guy with a latina wife, and the guy also is responsible for
selling cheap golf balls, too.

Wait till you find out your BFF is an albino black guy who has a devoted
protestant landlady with a degree from a Catholic college.

I wouldn't doubt that. But paranoia is also whatalso causes people to apply for Conceal/Carry permits.
