When I was a kid I'd save the 30-30 and 30-06 shells from mine and my dad's hunting rifles. Me and the neighbor kid would stuff them with matchheads, and then plug them with tinfoil balls...electrical tape them to Hot Wheels, set the Hot Wheel car on the driveway, and then hold a lighter to the shell until it would ignite the matches inside and send the car flying down the driveway ass over teakettle.
Then we'd do it with another car...and keep doing it until we either ran out of cars, ran out of shells, or got tired of the blisters on our fingers.
Being kids, we usually ran out of shells first.
Fish on...

The Zombies are coming? Paker's always been warning us about 'em. ...and you tools didn't listen. I have NO sympathy for any of you...especially when you all become zombified (Dogfish excluded) and I have to (or get too?) shoot you between the eyes. Zombies. Only thing worse then a zombie is a PP zombie!  PS. Nothing personal. Zombies is what zombies are. They all gotta be put down.

Slab, if you need a brick I have some to spare, from budget to "budget breaker".

nope, no kidding Illy... i just searched roughly 15 websites, i found ONE that sold 500 round bricks of Lapua .22 LR ammo, shipped to me for the low low price of 140 bucks... and there isnt many of them left either...
the Walmart i ran to, had some .22 mags, but they were 20 bucks a box for 100 rounds...
this isnt funny anymore... can we please stop it?

lol you didnt find anything...
all those are per 50, look at the prices... all the CCI and others are all gone... the reason that they are still available, and i bet theres only a few left, or there isnt any and the site isnt updated, is because noone in their right mind will pay 23 bucks for a 50 round box of .22 LR rounds...
anyone know the legalities of bringin ammo back from your cabin across the border? DF, BD?

i saw a guy on another board trying to sell bricks of remington golden bullets for $50 each...and had someone wanting to buy all he had. that stuff is garbage even when it was $15 a brick.
i'm one of the guys that usually buys a 50 or 100 round box at a time. i don't seem to get out to shoot my .22 more than couple times a year any more, and my gun likes CCI best.

au contraire Redhook. I did find something - its just expensive. So now its price and MFG? A bird in the hand is worth more than a fistful of .22 birdshot to some. It's called supply and demand. It depends on the want and the need. If someone just absolutely must have .22LR ammo RIGHT now, then I found some (and btw Eley is fine for .22LR - we are not talking premium centerfire rounds here). If they don't, then don't bitch that everything is out of stock....because its not. Oh and BTW - I know where there is plenty of CCI sitting on a storeshelf within 1/2 hour of Seattle - only they limit to (1) brick per visit per day. Hint: stay away from any of the normal haunts and bigger stores.

re read what i said about Fed Way, you will see that i already said that they are only allowing 1 box of CCI Mini Mags per customer, and 2 boxes of CCI Blazer per customer... they also dont have plenty, atleast not according to the guy i talked to yesterday...
this is my point...
CCI Blazer 2.99 per 50 round box...
Eley 23.00 per 50 round box...
.300 Win Mag 27.00 a box, roughly the same for the 7mm Rem Mag, for Remington Core Lokt rounds....
the .22s you linked up (saw it well before you posted it) are approaching baseline Magnum prices...
only top notch target shooters, or just plain idiots will buy the Eley, and Lapua rounds... like i said, i found another site called five7ammo, and they are selling the Lapua rounds for 99.99 per 500 round brick... your link is basically 250 dollars per brick... WAY too expensive for general .22 plinking/hunting... you would be better off to wait a month and stock up then...
