Up here in Alaska, .22lr is the hardest to find. In Anchorage the only big box sporting goods store we have is Sportsmans Warehouse (until Bass Pro & Cabelas open sometime next year). Walmart and some other mom and pops sporting goods stores people have a timeline down when their ammo shipments come in and wait in line before the store opens or they stay in the stores all day waiting for their ammo shipments to come in. When they do, they buy up especially the .22lr ammo and sell it online for up to $120.00 per brick! It's sickening! My neighbor who's retired has pretty much made a part-time job at buying ammo and then re-selling it for a hefty profit! Other calibers .380, 9mm, .40, .45, .223 and such are slowly trickling in and if you look hard enough, you can find it although limited to so many boxes per day. I think the good ol days of taking the kids out teaching them how to shoot and shooting cans off a fence post is long gone along with the dodo bird.
