The way it works here is that you have to make friends with the
manager of the ammo department. If he's so inclined, he can tell you
when the next shipment is going to be brought out and what is in it.
At our local store that is typically 7:00 AM on Thursdays. Guys
start lining up about 5:30 or so and most of the ammo is sold right
off the cart before it gets to the shelf.


Hoarding ammo is one way to solve the problem, voting republican is
another:)

Surely you wouldn't call the accumulation of a measly 5000 rounds 'hoarding'!


===

If you buy ammo by the case every shipment is 5,000 rounds in 22lr.
That's about 6 months for me.


I saw it for about .12/round. Are you getting a much better deal than that? If so, where?


===

I shoot mostly Wolf Match Target, currently about .21/round. 22lr at
..12 is a very good price these days.

I don't think so... it's a couple of weekends and a day or two of

Take him to Rum Runners before dusk for happy hour. I'll bet you could
coax him into delivering to your door.


===

That's a thought. :-) I actually buy most of my ammo on the
internet however. It's more convenient and I get what i'm looking
for.

So how did your land yacht transaction end up?

Teats up. I went somewhere closer to home and bought something different.

Bought six boxes of 50 rounds each of Blazer .357 MAG ammo, at $19.99 a
box. Grrrr. Twice as much as it used to sell for before the crazies started hoarding ammo.

This is the Blazer aluminum case ammo. Not reloadable, which is not an
issue for me, since I don't reload.

What the hell. You're rich, with multiple yachts. I do not remember
paying only 10 bucks for 357 ammo. But I do reload, and shoot little.

He's full of ****.
