Last week Carter's had boxes of 525 rounds (Remington) going for $30 + tax, limit 1 per customer... That's the best price I've seen in over a year. It may be worth driving there to see if they still have some...

Check gunboat.net to see who has some...

I'll check there tomorrow. Under normal circumstances, can find a box of 100 for under $4, but now this doesn't seem like a bad deal. Supply and demand lol

Are these hard to find nowadays? I was pretty stocked up & just spent my last few boxes.

@Compgurl:

YES.

I'm afraid the days of $0.02/round .22 are gone...

I'm not a fan of Carter's, but I think that price is great... comes to about $0.06 per round, which isn't bad under the circumstances... going price of a brick (500) is $70+ online and you pay shipping on top, etc.

I can attest to Carters price as it is not great but bad either. IF you want to brave the early morning lines then hit academy. I git some good loads from the Academy in San Antonio from my last trip.

Right?! LOL

Not as cheap as they used to be, but CC has them for $8/100.

I guess you don't shoot a lot... It's been like that for over a year now... It actually has come down from $100+

Again, you can buy 500 for $40 now at CC, but you'll have to take along a couple of buddies because it's limit 2 per customer to stave away the ammo hoarders.

Also, is "I guess you don't shoot a lot" the male equivalent to "You look fat in those jeans." from one female to another?

@brightlights:

Don't get me started with those hoarders. The hoarders in our area are actually range employees from local ranges who buy up ammo in Walmart and academy and then resell them at a higher gouging price at their facility. I even caught them more than five times at the local walmart and even told the manager but they said they cannot do anything. I got into an argument with one of those range employees about three month ago and he stated it is business.

Oh, I have hoarded enough already...

Well... You can never have enough ammo... I may stop by and get another brick

@cbp210:

Truth! During these "shortage" periods, every ammo retailer should have a limit/customer policy to weed out the *****s.
