The ammo supply here in Oklahoma is pretty much back..excepting the .22 rimfires...
You will see some .17hmr on the shelf..and just have to get lucky for .22lr, .22 short, .22 mag
I have not really gotten 'short' on rimfire ammo..but like to be able to buy fresh ammo when I want or need some. I will admit to shooting a lot less with the rimfires to preserve ammo.
As far as the .22 rimfire supply shortage..the ammo is flowing but being absorbed as quick as it hits shelves. Most stores here have 3 box limits for the 100 rd CCI..six boxes for the fifties......
Persistant...greedy...ammo needy...politicaly worried...prudent...lucky...and otherwise driven folks and spouses and cousin 'Bubba' buy it 3 at a time Tuesday morning within minutes of the Wal Mart truck dumping it off!!
The .22 ammo shortage is merely a symptom related to 'fear of government' disease.
