I get the sense that many brick and mortar stores are getting in regular shipments, but opt to post it on gun broker for 10 to 12 cents per round rather than to put it on the shelf. Just check out gun broker and u will see tons of cased bulk 22 lr. Good news is that most of it doesnt seem to be selling for that.
I have to ask though, why 10000 rds of 22lr? What purpose does that serve you? Chest thumping? future currency? Fear? I just have a hard time figuring out the justification for stock piling 22lr. If it is an investment, then that would make the 22lr a nickel that would turn to a dime, so why not collect a .223 that would be a $50 bill soon to turn to $100? Or a 30-06 that would reppresent $100 soon to be $200? Heck if you wanna talk folding money, get into the magnums.
Seriously, Not to minimalize but seriously, what is the purpose of stockpiling the 22lr in such a massive quantity?
I suspect it's all of those plus ignorance. A few months after Sandy Hook, some were posting photos of their ammo hoards as if they were their children or grandchildren. Sorta sad to be honest.
