Having trouble finding match .22 ammo?

[komishe]

It's been rough around my LGS', all I've been able to find is remington Eley, which is giving me shit fits(sub .5 and better @ 50y with a lot of light loads landing waaayyyy low)

Found this tonight and bought a bunch of midas+ too.
Stock amounts are in real time
lapua center x

good luck

Re: Having trouble finding match .22 ammo?

I was by Champions Shooters Supply Saturday. They still have most Eley available and I think Laupa branded stuff. I think they were out of Wolf for the online shopper. The cheapest ammo they had left was Eley Target.

It is important to note that when they are out, resupply of everything is unknown. For instance, when they buy CCI it is usually by the pallet. Their latest order they were not able to order more than 8 cases. It is a bit of a mess for the moment. Lots of folks who have no idea what they are buying are taking good target fodder off the shelf. I was lucky to have purchased enough Eley Sport for the year prior to the run. I do wonder if I am going to be in trouble come the summer shooting season and the longer ranges. I don't have any Eley Match on hand. I'm hoping the run ends soon. It is pretty crazy. I don't really see .22lr target ammo landing on the ban list.

Don't kick the bee's nest....we'll start seeing it soon as people stop freaking out and buying it all. HaHa
I'm in the process of ammot testing a new barrel, and it has an appetite for the big $ federal. Hoping it likes some less expensive alternatives.
Just trying to help others.

I happened across Bruno shooter supply and they just got a shipment of Wolf in TODAY.

5.19 for Match Target.....

That is cheaper than I was buying it before the panic. I haven't dealt with them before but I will again.

great! thank you
My order of lapua from ChampsChoice just shipped out.
yahoos @ all my local LGS are buying up all the target ammo for $10 a box because they think it's all gone for good.
I keep sneaking over to the hardware store where they keep the brick ammo for my pistols n such in stock for $23/500-550. almost makes me wanna put 'em on gunbroker for that dipshit that bought 5500 federal blue box for$1025. almost

Just snagged a bunch of wolf from Bruno too.

Thanks again.

Happy hunting guys
