You are right Ed

We do have a load of resellers. I see 22 ammo advertised every week for ridiculous prices. I've been buying and selling stuff since I was 12. Sold my first shotgun then. Just kept going from there. Never saw stuff this hard to find. As far as 22's and handgun ammo. I truly do think there is a hoarding element..maybe on some rifle ammo too. But consider. A place like Wally World gets a supply of 22s. The counter guy calls a friend or two and voila..all gone. I KNOW that happens locally. And the clerk gets a buck or two extra. But consider. You see a box of say 270 Win in the store..it is ok to spend 25 bucks every now and again specially using the ol plastic. Makes stuff disappear quickly..an easy thing to do even for the guy that doesn't really need the ammo. Eventually..it may just even out..but it ain't happening soon guys
