.22 LR

Recommended Posts

And we shoot differently now. Used to be a 50rd box and a bolt action - or single shot - got you through an afternoon. Now even a Ruger 10/22 can burn up 500 rds in a couple hours. Many semi-auto shooters (me too) of military look-alikes with 20 or 30 rd magazines: more people shooting, shooting faster, shooting more rds at a sitting.

I could care less if some old fart wants to hoard .22s. It's his right to own as much as he wants. The problem is, it's just like gas. When there is short supply and the manufacturers know it the price goes up. Maybe someone should come up with a way to reload them and become a billionaire. I got plenty. They are for the kids to shoot and learn. When I run out I will stand in line I guess.

I definitely was not suggesting a limit, but I was curious to know others opinions. I've never thought of buying ammo in bulk but I certainly believe you should have a healthy supply in your home because you just never know what can happen. And I'm sure that's reason enough for loading up and buying what you can. It's just the times we live in. My thoughts on this have more to do with our freedoms and political future. I think people's ammo purchases are their business.

Just watched this video. You can reload 7000 rounds after the initial purchase of the reloader for $65.00. I think that's well worth doing versus standing in line or complaining about hoaders.
