What ammo have you bought 2022

[jmorris]

I was in Academy a couple weeks ago and picked up 200 rounds of .22 lr. It was $2.99/50 and they had lots of it.

 

[Legionnaire]

We have an Academy close by. They were totally out of ammo for so long that I stopped checking on them. But when hunting online for some 123 grain 6.5 Hornady SSTs, Academy popped up and the local store showed them in stock. When I stopped by, they also had a reasonable selection of basic ammo as well as a pretty good selection of Hornady bullets. No primers, though.

I purchased 5 boxes of 350 Legend, Win 180 grain hunting ammo for $19/box at Sportsman Warehouse. That’s it.

 

[LoonWulf]

That 60 for 22s
20 bucks a box for bird shot
15 for Hmrs

 

[tws3b2]

In Dunhams the other day. Had the first 410 bore shells I've seen in about 2 years. 5 round box of slugs for $37. and change. No, Not this fool.
The last I bought was $5.89 at Dunhams .
In walmart yesterday. Winchester super x 22lr for $40 and change for 300. No.
I don't have thousands and thousands of rounds like some.
But, I have enough to do me for a long long time.
I'm finished playing this sucker game. Others can play on if they want.
This fool is finished. If it's not Within Reason. No Sale.

 

[Ignition Override]

Two separate 500-rds. cases of "steel" .308 ammo. I just picked up my first semi-auto .308 rifle.

 

[cd4337]

A little over 10k rounds of Speer Gold dot. I remember last winter that there were times you couldn't even find it at any price and I never want to be without it. I will keep most of them and maybe sell the rest.

 

[orionengnr]

"None. In fact I have not purchased any factory ammo in 3 or 4 years, and then it was .22 rimfire. I reload everything else."

This.
Okay, I bought my MIL a box of .380 and sent it to her.
I would buy some SP primers if I could find some, but I'll survive a while with the components I have.

 

[Captcurt]

Nothing for myself. I still have ammo from the Obama years. I did order some for a friend though.

 

[Mars5l]

So far this year?

120 rds of S&B 8mm Mauser, probably 400rds of WMR, 1 box .380, 100 rd box of .45acp, 300 rds of 7.62x39, 200rds of 7.62x54r, 1 box 7.7 Arisaka, 1 box of 6.5 Arisaka, 1 old box of 25-20, 1200ish rds of .22lr, 120 rds of M1 30-06, 2 boxes of Federal .30-30 Hammerdown, 500ish rds of 12ga target loads.

I'm getting a Browning BDA in .380 and only have maybe 3 boxes of ammo so now I gotta stuck up on .380

 

[PapaG]

A bunch of Remington Gun Club 1 1/8 7 1/2 at $7.99, 4 box a day limit. How many? Just say I was shocked when I printed out my debit card printout to balance the checkbook. Also, 2 boxes of 9 mm fmj at well under $20/box. I like it for new gun break in. Powder, wads, shot, moulds

 

[Riomouse911]

2K of Aguila .22 LR Super Extra.

750 Rem 9mm 115 gr fmj.

Stay safe.

 

[Autodidactic]

Last night I ordered 250 rounds 158 grain fmj, 50 rounds of 158 grain hp in 38 special and a 30 round box of 223 off of normashooting.com. they seem to have good prices when you account for free shipping over $150. They have a good price on 9mm makarov but I can't justify buying anymore considering I have around 900 rounds of tula and I don't shoot it too often.
38 special fmj- $.46 cpr
38 special hp- $.60 cpr
223 fmj- $.50 cpr
What are you guys picking up?

I bought one box of .380 at my LGS last month, then today:

1) Underwood .380 ACP hardcast
2) Underwood .38 Special +P hardcast
.38 Special +P 158gr. Keith Hi-Tek Coated Hard Cast Hunting Ammo (underwoodammo.com)
Look at the specs on those. Bestial.
3) Underwood .32 ACP Extreme defender

 

[twarr1]

250 - 357 magnum,
150 - 5.7x28
Bought mainly for the cases. To reload.

 

[carlson1]

Only ammo I have bought in the last year and a half was in December 2021 and then January 2022. It was all .45 ammo. I bought bulk range and carry ammo for delivery. I went back to carrying my .45 more and I am going to take a defensive pistol class next week so I have been shooting more than normal.

 

[Trey Veston]

I've only bought 5.56 from the LGS when it comes in. We're still restricted to two boxes, and it's $11.99 per box for Frontier ammo.



Seems to work OK. It's one of three calibers I don't reload for; .22 LR, .223, and .45 acp.

I have plenty of powder, plenty of bullets, plenty of lead to make more bullets, plenty of cases, and plenty of primers in everything except small pistol. I had about three years worth of shooting saved up, and it's going on two years since I've seen small pistol primers for sale. Getting nervous.

 

[Frankl03]

I have only bought 22lr and 12 Guage target. I load 9mm. I just bought an AR so I will.be looking for 556/223. I have some 223 from loading it years ago.

Not sure I want to load 223 again after having only loaded straight walled cartridges for quite a few years.

I won't be buying shotgun shells, I sold my Shotgun after a shooting buddy died from Covid.

 

[dh1633pm]

Zero. Not a single box.

 

[e rex]

Same as dh1633pm above.

 

[Mr. Hill]

About 500 rounds of .22 LR (CCI standard), and a box of Nosler Premium Accubonds for the .308. I’m getting ready for summer and then elk season.

 

[entropy]

Well, were just a month in-give it time. So, far I've bought 4 50 rd. boxes of .22 WMR CCI FMJ for my son for use at work. He works at a slaughterhouse.

 

[shootstraight57]

I recently purchased some 22 magnums from PSA! Good price and they were Hornady..

 

[375supermag]

Hi...
Haven't bought much factory ammunition in several decades other than .22RLR/22Mag and 12ga shotgun shells. I reload everything else.
I will occasionally buy some of factory ammunition when I buy a firearm in a new to me caliber, like when I bought a BlackHawk in .30Carbine last year.
I do buy a couple of boxes of Winchester Supreme Ballistic Silvertips in 7mm Magnum when needed because it is just amazingly accurate in my rifle and is very effective on game animals.

 

[Buzznrose]

I’ve not bought much this year, but I still look and pick up what makes sense.

Mostly Walmart…bought 6 boxes of .22LR (two separate visits a few weeks apart) of Federal 40gr, 325 rounds, for $22 per box.

Also ordered 3 boxes of .410 #9 from Midway. Cost me $70 total delivered but it was to trade to a friend for 3 boxes of Rem Corelok 170gr 30-30.

Finally, buying 50 rounds of 30-30 for $60 from a small local ammo maker. All new components and commercial grade equipment. A “friend of a friend” kinda deal, but my friend checked and not some guy on a Dillon in his garage. I’ll give him a shot.

I have bought some 22 LR this year locally. I haven't purchased any centerfire ammo since Walmart got rid of their pistol ammo and I bought some 380 then.

I saw that Academy had the inexpensive Aguila but it is over 100 miles to the nearest store. They also had it for internet sales but with a 4 box limit and 8 bucks shipping, not exactly a screaming deal, so I let it go. Evidently their free shipping with a $25 purchase is gone.
