I love how they list everything out at retail price or higher, for what I assume is a used rifle, and then don't even give a discount in their out the door price. Then again who hasn't spent $5700 on a snipper rifle, right?

Well of course not that would just be stupid, it's a snipper rifle....

They forgot to add the flip up sights! Hurry someone buy it before they notice!

Soooo all the lawyers then?

I believe Sandy Hook was fake, plain and simple, too many holes in the story. I wasn't sure until I saw the father of one of the children that was shot yucking it up with people a few seconds before an interview, then totally changing character and acting somber. If I remember correctly it was only a few days after the "shootings". http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oMINqFGNr-w Go ahead and watch that and tell me that's the way a father would act days after their kid was murdered.

Yes, retailers might want to sell it, but on a day when so many people are shopping, having a highly desired item available that day is going to draw more shoppers to your store.

You know honestly I've never had a problem with them, but I have a pretty decent stock of CCI which I prefer. The worst looking ammo I have seen in years is the first and only rounds of winchester m22 I bought at wallyworld. Now I will preface this by saying I haven't shot any yet, but they look terrible. Every round looks like there is a clear coating on it that is like corroding off of it. They are all super rough. I even emailed Winchester but never got a reply. I'd take thunderbolts over them any day.

Oh gosh, I dont know what I was thinking when I posted that. One of my spazz moments I suppose... Chapman hwy is where I saw them doubt there's any left by now but you never know.

Just left Wal-Mart on 66 in Knoxville, they had about 50 single packs of thunderbolts for 2.37 each. Not my choice, but if you need em, better than nothing.

Please delete me, dunno how that happened.

I'd suggest looking at slickguns.com if you're planning on buying online. It will give good deals that are currently going on, like who has free shipping and their prices. I personally don't order online unless it's free shipping because that usually puts the price in the .10 a round range which I can get any time. PSA rarely has great deals on. 22, especially without free shipping.

Congratulations! She's a cutie!

That's assuming production stays the same. Lets get hypothetical here. Let's say I'm the largest producer of .22 in the USA and right now I'm running at 100% capacity producing a million rounds a day. The market pays me .03 a round because demand is so high. Now let's pretend that there are indications that the market is getting saturated with .22 and I assume that the big boys are going start buying at .02 a round. Why at this point would I continue to distribute 100% of my product? I could store half of my inventory keeping demand high, eventually slowing down production and costs to myself. Could this already happening? This isn't a response to anyone, just throwing that out there for thoughts.

Edited cause I hit post before finishing my thoughts.

Oh and I just want to add, I hope you are right, and all this nonsense ends soon. I would love nothing more to be wrong here, but I just don't think we're going back to those good old days.

I was hopeful that prices would be back down by this time, but we're what, 2 years in, and supply is barely any better with manufacturers running at full capacity. Whatever the reason, hoarders, scalpers, new shooters, more hi cap semi autos, it's barely better than it was. Like I said before, when you can find it at big box stores it's gone within 30 minutes, at I'd say between .05 and .06 a round. That leads me to believe that the price is too low and the market will bear more. There are plenty of places that have it in stock constantly for .10 a round, which says to me the price is too high. So I'm sticking with a normalized price of .06 to .08. Whether that happens next week or another 2 years from now, who knows.

Meh, I don't really take gas into consideration as I wasn't going just to search for .22. Wal-Mart is at least a weekly trip guaranteed, and my son likes to go look at the fishies, so I'm out a lot. I don't think that .10 will be the norm. I think we'll end up around .06 to .08. Wal-Mart had those new black box 100 round packs for 7.99 recently, and they were theoretically new production. So if they aren't charging .10 a round for CCI SV, I'd imagine that they won't charge .10 for m22 or remington, etc. Of course all it would take is another Sandy Hook, or Hillary election and all bets are off at that point....

I don't wanna call your father a liar but.... well maybe he's half right. I live in Sevier county and it's not quite like that. You can certainly find it fairly easy at Buds, J Floyds, or SMKW if you're willing to pay about .10 a round. If you want a reasonable price, Wal-Mart or Bass Pro, You need to be there right when, or maybe within 30 mins of it being put out, otherwise you get none. Edit: I don't consider .10 a round or more reasonable, ymmv. Edit 2.0: I've probably been to these stores 100+ times in the past 2 years, Wal-Mart probly 200+, I check every time I go.

+1 for PSA, I built mine on a blemished lower from them, which they regularly discount for 49.99. I never found a blemish other than maybe a slight scuff that rubbed out. But really like musicman said, they're all pretty much the same, a hunk of aluminum or polymer.

Even after all of that I bought the 10/22. I couldn't find an American cheaper than 259.99 locally, so 20% off the 10/22 was just too good to pass up. The next one will definitely be an American though.

Well guess I was wrong, the "news" program I was watching did show that it was a 9mm, but I guess that's what I get for listening to those clowns. Nothing left to see here, move along please. ^^

It was a Sig 9mm, I remember they showed the magazines on the "news" and they had 9mm on them. Not that it matters, just saying.

Thanks, but upon further investigation it appears that I can't do it on a mobile device, which is 90% of my browsing. I was going a little crazy looking for that editor for a while there. XD

Ya, I think I'm gonna stick with getting the American, members that own them seem to like them, and it just appeals to me for some reason. Now if this were close to me, I'd Just go for the 10/22. http://www.slickguns.com/sites/default/files/reg65.jpg 10/22 for $99.00, yes please. edit: I don't know how to make pictures appear on the post....

Ya, I'll just have to buy another new one at that point. She can keep claiming my rifles as long as I can keep buying new ones, bwahahahahaha.
