There are also a lot of companies importing European target .22lr ammo. Most people aren't going to pay premium prices for bulk pack ammo when premium ammo is available for the same cost.

Back in the old days people would just plink...nowadays you have these people running around with M&P 15-22s or 10/22s with BX-25s shooting through a brick or more every time they go out shooting. Factor that in with the hoarders, preppers, and gun show re-sellers....it's easy to see why the supply has been so dry.

The lack of .22 ammo has delayed my plans to purchase a rifle... Eleanors38 May 2016 #8

I bought my Wife a Savage A22 this weekend. It's a semi in .22 WMR. cherokeeprogressive May 2016 #12

I have decided on a bolt as it approximates my deer rifle. Savage has one in the $250 range. Eleanors38 May 2016 #13
