22lr a regional thing?

[wcd]

Ok since moving to Tennessee I have hardly found a box of 22lr even close to normal retail prices. I am in Erie Pennsylvania for two weeks for work. So yesterday I ventured out to Wally world and they had Fededal auto match 325 rounds for $15.00. Today I went back for some snacks and still the shelfs were still full! So I asked the guy behind the counter and he said they usually have it in stock. Just seems kind of odd ?

Pennsylvania (Butler Co.) was my secret supply of .22lr during the drought. I think Federal sent all of that black and white boxed .22 lead rn .22 to Western Pennsylvania.

They were worried about a repeat of the Whisky Rebellion and do everything they can to placate the Scots Irish of that region....

I found this too. West side of Columbus, OH had plenty at reasonable prices during the panic where you couldnt find it here at all, not even at inflated prices.

Just a theory. I don't have any significant evidence one way or the other.

INGO has greatly increased communication between gun owners in Indiana. INGOers have been very open about sharing info about available sources of ammo for others.

Is INGO a factor in making affordable ammo scarce in Indiana?

It definitely appears to be regional. I can find it all over Ohio but not here in Indiana. Granted, I have enough that I haven't looked for any in a month or so here.

An enterprising person would go over there and bring a truckload back at a profit.

No moved out of. Boone. Grove about a year ago. I miss some of the people but I do not miss the influx of people from Chicago. Not that all of them are rude just the jackwagon who live across the way. In Tennessee no on complains about shooting on your own property. And as an added bonus my HCP is recognizdd in quite a few more States than Indiana.

Go away from major metro areas and you'll find plenty

Don't worry, my brother is out there to ensure they stay in line.

Walmart at 73rd and Keystone had that same ammo last week but it was $17.97 per box.

I've been all over MI, WI, IN, OH, KY, TN and recently AL. Have not seen .22 in any of the stores I went in.
