7.62x54R is gone!

What does loaded mean and how much in dollas?

They were looking pretty lean two days ago.

They had about 20 boxes... Don't remember the price. I scored 22lr so I didn't care about anything else

Why are you guys spreading this BS. I just went on Gunbot and there's plenty.

Not everyone in the thread is perpetuating the rumors...

hey, I am happy to be proven wrong. I was just trying to inform my friends of a potential loss of a well loved caliber. I got screwed on .22 and 7.62x25, I'll be damned if I'll get screwed on 7.62x54. It seems gun owners [including myself] are quick to try to beat the next panic [which seem to happen every year].

I did a pre-ordered from AIM. $206 for a case to my door. I think their pre-order deal was a sell out.

What am I going to shoot out of my surplus Mosin? Oh no!

 

[armed ferret]

my crate from SG showed up yesterday. less than 174 shipped.


of course, i then went and ordered a couple 91/30's from AIM.

I think mine came today too, to my neighbors house, based on the "you got a really heavy package" text I got...

If it weren't for people stirring the pot the sh## wouldn't stink. Just sayin

fair enough, but I sure wish someone had told me what was gonna happen to .22, sure would have been nice to get that heads up. Also, 7.62x25 dried up almost overnight. Surplus stopped, prices flew through the roof and never came down. I remember less than .10 cents a round, now it's around .35

I saw alot of US sellers that keep large stockpiles of 7.62x54 in stock running out. This ammo is exclusively imported and is relatively cheap. It would not take much for ammo hoarders and resellers to scoop up the available supply.

It is not so much the actual cause of the stampede that matters, if the bulls start running, you still better run too.

Sorry if this was already mentioned, but I heard that 7.62x25 dried up so fast because the AR x25 uppers came out and a bunch of the big security contractor firms bought the stuff in massive quantities for cheap training (think of how much cheaper 7.62x25 was vs .223/5.56 at the time)

Could be BS, but seems plausible to me....

AIM emailed me today that they have 7.62x54 for $89.95/440

AIM is sold out already
