Lewisville Wally World got in one case of Federal .22 bricks a day or three ago and it was gone as soon as it came out of the cart about 30 minutes before I arrived. I was just in time tho for unpacking of 9mm Win white box 100 rounders and scarfed down on 3 for OTD of $85.

Bought daughter a Walther P22 and was hoping to take her this weekend so she could shoot, but with the place we go is probably under water by now.

I gave up at even looking for 22 at Walmarts locally. The employees call friends and family when they get a shipment and it's gone before it hits the shelves.

Yes! The LOCAL hardware store had Federal Automatch .22 LR for $100/325 round box BUT the LOCAL Walmart had none. This would be in Jacksonville, TX that I'm talking about. :roll:

In their case it sounds like they're too proud of it to sell it. However, I actually heard one of those employee calls taking place.

I was fortunate enough to find over 2500 .22 cartridges in my father-in-law's gun cabinet after he passed away. And found three more boxes in the laundry room cupboard last week. Most are .22LR but there are a few boxes of .22 WMR and one 100 count brick of shorts. I only have two .22LR rifles and one Ruger Single Six convertible so I'm good for a long time.

Oh, I also have an NAA .22 convertible that the bride uses for a pocket gun.

There is a guy on TexasGunTrader.com who is selling bulk .22LR for 13 cents a round. Seems to have a ton of it.

Another guy on that site has about 700 rounds, various makes, of .22 for $50. That's about 7 cents a round.

Several other listings for .22 rounds for sale on that website.

He'll probably keep that .13 cents per round stuff for a while, but might be able to sell the .07 cent per round stuff. It is starting to show up in Walmart with a little more regularity. I've seen some once or twice a month for the past 3 months now.

I always seem to be a day late. The WalMart's in Missouri City are always out.
