Found a 100 round box (could only buy one) at gander mountain, in NC. I think it was $6.99

nothing in past couple weeks. Tried bass pro and dicks. Maryland outside of DC

I was completely out, and couldn't find any anywhere, but then my brother got lucky and went into a Wal-Mart here in east-central Iowa right after their ammo shipment had arrived, and he was able to pick up two Winchester 550-round value-packs for me, so I'm set for a while. Hopefully the shortage will have eased by the time I next run out.
Does anyone know what's causing the shortage? Is it that there's just so much demand that the ammo companies can't keep up, or are they not producing .22 LR for some reason?

Forgot to mention, the 550-round packs were about $30 apiece, so not too expensive.

I think it was government purchases causing the shortage

Not too bad

At the end of April 2018, the shortage has been over for over a year.
