Shopping for 22 RF

Made the short trip to Lubbock, TX last week and looked for some 22 ammo. Nice lady at the Walmart said she puts it out at 7:00 am, but on the mornings they get it the the customers (scalpers) know it before she does.
Went to Academy, they had several hundred rounds, limit one box. I got my one box, then went to Cabela's.

They had several thousand rounds, limit 500. Mostly CCI, Stingers and Mini-Mags and Standard Velocity, 7 cents per round. Most I've seen in years.

    its slowly making into the market more showing up on the big stores web sites . and my youngest son and his GF seeing more at the places like bass pro and cabala's even Walmart . with more showing up I would guess the secondary ( gougers ) will disappear soon .
    I have seen cabalas hs had cci for at least a week on ther site 5 box limit just under 7 cents a round . I bought just under 2k rouns from them over the last couple weeks different types and manufacture's depending on the day
    I bought some from gander mountain a couple days ago limit 250 rounds 6 cents a round but I bought some 380 also from them on sale and free shipping . any order over 25.00
    just keep plugging away

    There is a Cabela's in Lubbock, TX.

    Cabela's sells ammo online with FREE shipping to the store.

    So you watch Cabela's online for .22 ammo, order it online and have it shipped for free to the store.

    If you cannot get to the store promptly to pick it up, call them on the phone. They will hold onto it for you if you ask them to.

    Here's a link:

    This works.

    I went to cabelas yesterday to pick up my on line order and they had
    plenty of 22's on the shelf. 1200 round limit. The sales guy told me
    they just got a huge shipment in but they don't have the shelf space
    to put it all out.
