Seriously though, how do so many people on this thread come across employees while theyre loading the cabinet? I have probably never had less than a 5minute wait, trying to find someone to get into the ammo for me....

It's like those Dollar Shave Club commercials!!!

I'm pretty convinced that WM and Dick's employees alert their buddies as soon as anything arrives, or even before it arrives.

It's been a while since I got ANY at WM. I got lucky once or twice at Dick's.

This weekend I got a 555 pack of Winchesters at a LGS for $55. Highway robbery, but what can you do?

I know for a fact that the department manager knows a day in advance what is coming in.

This is true, I have seen the list myself on several occasions.

You can also call Dick's about 10-20 minutes before opening time and they will tell you what is available.

I just get on the waiting list for MidwayUSA for the 22LR ammo I want at the price I want and try to get some before it is gone. Usually have good luck. Problem is, I forget I already ordered some, and end up ordering more. Now I have a bunch. But, no worries, I have something to feed it all too

There isn't even a tag for .22 ammo in the case at the Mt Airy Walmart. I've been looking there for 3 years.

Noticed today that both WMs in Frederick have tags for .22, but of course none in stock. I do not remember any .22 tags the last time I searched (a month or two ago). Back then it seemed like they were only putting up tags for items as they stocked them and then pulling the tags when sold out. Now it seems that there are more tags in the case using up more of the space that had been switched to scopes, knives, etc.; and that those tags are being left even when out of stock. Don't know if this means that ammo, especially .22, is coming in more often but it may indicate some improvement.

Not exactly a deal, but PSA has CCI SV for 44.99 again per brick this weekend.

Once again, OOS in mere moments (sigh)

Took about 10 minutes this time. Sign up now for the notification. Won't surprise me if more shows up in stock in the next few hours.

Nodak Kid · Mar 30, 2015

yep they went very quick.

Scarab · Mar 31, 2015

.09 cent per round for .22 LR isn't a bad price but when you factor in shipping it jumps up to .11 cents per round which is crazy.

This just sucks. :mad54:

It depends on the grade 22for me. Good honest target grade(match practice grade) is worth $50 a brick to me. But paying the same price/brick (2x retail) for blasting grade to scalping doesn't appeal at all.

I actually scored 3 boxes of WWB 333's this Sunday at Frederick WM of 85. Saw it in stock on Brassbadger, walked in and it was in the back. Had 20 of them. Clerk said 10 more are due this Wednesday 4-1

Sorry for the late post...I thought I had posted this here, but noticedI put it in the AMMO thread and not the 22LR thread

my bad

Please tell me where you can find good match grade.22LR for $50 a brick and I'll be all over it. Sadly that is the retail price these days for CCI MM give or take a couple of bucks.

Use ammoseek/etc. I see Aguila match pistol for 10cpr and Eley Target from a couple sources for 13cpr. I've seen Wolf come up for about 10cpr.

When they get them in stock http://www.walmart.com/ip/Federal-Ammunition-22LR-40gr-Auto-Match-325ct/17133655 I stocked up prior to Sandy Hook

Very accurate out of my Ruger Mk II and 10/22.

Magnumite · Apr 1, 2015

The Tac-22 is that grade ammo, Federal target (711), Aguila Match and Super Extra. Much is dependent on the firearm.

Also segregating by rim thickness with a gauge helps. I did that with the old Federal Classic 22 and got nearly match grade results at 100m from a TC pistol. As always with 22 LR, the arm will determine what it likes most.

For me perdonally, it depends on the gun I am using. 22 LR 1911 conversions arenotorious for needing HV round nose to run. I have since modified my 22 1911 pistol's hammer so it will cye with standard velocity ammo.
