If you can't find ammo, you're not trying. I was unlucky enough to get a 22lr pistol right when the shortage hit. By using nothing more than this site and the 22lr ammo availability link, I was able to accumulate all I needed. At first I would buy anything. Soon, however, I was able to accumulate enough of my preferred ammo (copper plated round nose) that I sold off my lead round nose stuff to a friend. Now I'm able to sit back until mini mags (my much preferred round) come in around or under 10 cents per round. Sure, it's not the price I'd like, but it's there. And now I've accumulated more than I "need" which I'm very pleased with.

BTW, I have several dozen golf balls on a shelf in my basement. I also keep a lot of bottled water in my garage. I have some gas and diesel stored as well. I keep some money in the bank too. Food? Yep, some of that too. I'm blessed to have more than I need. I try to make sure I don't forget to be thankful but also to be diligent. It works for me.
