Shipping must have been a killer...

So it looks like those of us that placed 5k rd (case) orders for CCI mini mags back late 13' are still without, but I keep getting emails about my back order and keeping my cc up to date, any others get that email?

Just got one in the last couple hours.

I hadn't logged into their site in awhile, but did last night after looking at this thread. Not sure if that triggered the email or was just a coincidence.

I think you may be right, cajunfirehawk. When I talked with them earlier this week, the rep checked expected delivery of my 5k cases of solid and hollowpoint MiniMags. Although it can change, he said sometime around October/November.

I just received my second email this month from midway stating that they still have it, my CC is up to date, unknown delivery. My order was placed 12/18/13. Be Safe,

I BACK OUR BLUE

I see that Mini-mags in both solids and HP are available on the MidwayUSA site today. I used the live chat on the MidwayUSA site and the representative said that they are not available in the larger quantities (cases) that are in my backorder, but are available in the 100-count boxes. Since I've never seen an ammo manufacturer ship 22LR ammo other than in cases, I asked if backorders would be shipped before new sales would be filled. The representative seemed to not understand that concept. I also pointed out that the larger quantity SKUs didn't exist anymore, as the links from the backordered items point to the smaller quantities, so I was worried that they just weren't making the connections between the backorders for cases and the 100-count boxes available for new orders on the website that had to come to Midway in cases.

I'm going to wait a couple days to see if my backorder ships, but if it doesn't I'm going to call in to find out if they are actually going to fulfill more backorders.

Also waiting on a case ordered on 11-13-13.

I just checked the site and I don't see any CCI available.

Thanks for putting their feet to the fire. I'll be mighty ticked if they sell our cases off 100 round box by 100 round box instead of honoring our back orders.

There was a guy on rimfirecentral that said he recently received his case from Midway. So who knows???

I just canceled my order of 5K mini mags from Dec 2013. I'm leaving the 2k rounds of M22 and 5250 case of Federal bulk. My .22's shoot the cheaper stuff just fine and I have been able to get enough to not care about the mini-mag back order.

Any updates? This thread has been kinda quiet. My orders are still listed, and I've gotten the "your credit card will expire soon" emails.

Same here. Ordered on 12/26/13 and have heard nothing. Thankfully, I got a good amount by following the .22lr links in this forum. I'd still like the back order because the price quoted was pretty good.

Still waiting....

I backordered a case of Mini Mag solids on 11/19/13 and a case of Mini Mag hollow points on 11/21/13. I'm still waiting. They've had smaller quantities come and go on the website, but AFAIK no cases. Puzzling as I assume all Mini Mags arrive in case lots. Gotta wonder how (or if) they're filling those case-sized backorders.

Midway notified me my backorders in .22 ammo were available last week and would ship soon. 1575 rd ammo box of Fiochi 40g HV, 1000 rd of Win M-22 and 500 rd of 40g CCI MiniMag. They shipped last week and will be delivered today.

What was your order dates, please?

Case of CCI Mini-Mag 40 gr. (5000) ordered 11/14/2013

Still waiting

Sometime in the early spring I think. I did get them all by the way. The Fiochi appear to all intends and purposes to be CCI MiniMags with a different brand mark on the bottom of the case (the ammo is made in the USA not Italy either). Bullets themselves are definitely CCI-MM I just don't know about the powder as I have not shot any of them yet. The ammo can comes with 3 525 rd bulk boxes.

Hmm, interesting. I have M-22 back ordered since last December.

I have a case of these on order (5000) and when I click on my midway backorder link it now goes to a 1600 round pack of them instead of the case. Im hoping I still have the case on backorder.

I have been seeing 22 ammo at my local Gander Mountain and Dick's Sporting Goods for quite some time now. It has not been flying off the shelves either. I think people are not willing to pay the high prices anymore. Also just to let you guys know, Federal American Eagle 50 round boxes are now 40 round boxes. Be careful when looking at the box and not assume it is 50. About a month ago the guy at Dick's pointed that out to me.

Just got shipping confirmation on 5000 rounds minimags. 330.98 shipped so that was 18.99 in shipping charges

When was your order placed, Mobilecommand? I have orders from 12/17/2013 and 12/30/2013 that are still showing as "Waiting For Items" on the MidwayUSA site.

I ordered the mini mags before I ordered the Winchester and the date on the Winchester was 11/8/2013

Received my 5K case of CCI MM 40gn RN 11/4/14. Ordered it 11/10/13.

Fixed it.

I called Midway to check on any improvement in availabilty of CCI .22 ammo and to ask if my backorder would ever be filled. The reply was yes, it would be filled but when was impossible to say. I specifically asked if backorders would be deleted after one year. The response was "not on any of the .22 backorders"

Last friday Midway sent the first communication on my backorder (5000 round case CCI 40 gr. placed 11/14/2013)

It was almost useless, your backorder is this... and it will be delivered...we don't have a clue. But at least there is an acknowldgement of the order and some indication it will be filled...eventually...maybe

For the same email. But, I've gotten a couple of those before for this same order (placed early 2014).

some people's backorders were deleted just after the first of this year. I was one of them and it was an oct. 2013 order date. one of the many reasons I check them last when I wanting something. I live 160 miles from them and it always takes 3-4 days after shipment to get to me.

Just got shipping confirmation on my case ordered on 11-11-13. Should see it tomorrow.

Case of what?

Eat your heart out boys.... One day away from one year since I ordered.

I just went to my Midway account and check my status for the same thing. Says it's still an active backorder, CC info is up to date, no notifications or emails for me though. Backordered 11/10/13

I got mine in today as well..

The only thing that sucks is that over half of my boxes are cracked from UPS i assume...

I was hopeful that Midway would ship my case of Mini Mags soon, after mobilecommand and 15Krounds posted their orders were filled.

My order date is 11/14/2014, just a few days later than their dates of 11/8/2014 and 11/10/2014.

So far, no email notification and my backorder at Midway is still tagged as unknown delivery. OK, people are ahead of me on the order list.

I find it odd that Midway sent out a "product notification" that 100 round boxes of Mini Mags are (were) in stock and that they took and filled orders with that new inventory instead of fulfilling my year old backorder. Those 100 round boxes are shipped in cases of 5000.

I will see what good a phone call to Midway does. Maybe next shipment.

Got curious so logged on to Midway and saw that my order for Winchester M-22 from right at a year ago is "processed". Hopefully that means it will soon move to "shipped".

Hope your order ships, just want to warn you an order they cancelled on me last year list as "processed"

I just received an e-mail from MidwayUSA stating that my three backorders from November 2013 have been cancelled. Here's what the message says...

"We're very sorry, but because we have been notified by our vendor that availablity within the next 12 months is unlikely, the backordered products listed below have been cancelled:

Anyone else with old backorders may be receiving a similar message soon.

Midway just cancelled my backorder after a year for a case of mini mags, if your on the waiting list expect an email too. YMMV

I also have received notification that Midway is canceling my backorder for CCI Mini-Mags. Very disappointed in Midway.

I too received a cancellation notice from MidwayUSA on my over one year backorder of CCI Mini-Mag ammo.

I called the customer "support" line and was basically told that I'm screwed. I asked why my order is cancelled and was told that CCI notified MidwayUSA that they will not be able to supply them any .22 ammo in the next 12 months.

I told the Midway rep that statement made no sense, I receive notifications from Midway saying they have CCI ammo in stock to sell to new customers, but yet they refuse to fulfill my backorder.

I will never place an order with MidwayUSA again.
