Good find, higher than we used to pay but not scalpers prices

Pricing no different then almost everything else we buy daily.
At least some are starting to show up.

Never saw a 235 round box. I seem to remember 333 round boxes.

Hope the quality is up on them. The last few 333 marked boxes I shot jammed in near everything I tried but a revolver. The bullets would wobble freely if you shook them.

The quantity just keeps getting smaller and smaller, yet the prices never do. I wonder if the quantity is a trick to get people to think a brick of 22lr for $15 is a good deal. What other reason would they keep changing, and lowering it?

they learned the technique from the grocery stores. Change the quantity to some odd number that is less and keep the price the same. It will take the shoppers a while to figure out that they have been tricked into paying more. Make it hard for math challenged people to compare and make a short term killing.. But $.06 a shot is good for times like these. Bring your calculator , just like at the grocery store.

Is it just me or does the 3 look bigger than the 2 and the 5? Perhaps make us glance at it and "think" it still has 333?

As if to call attention to the new content number. I noticed the same thing.

Yesterday I went into a new gunshop/indoor range that opened up near where I work. For the first time in three years I saw what I thought would qualify as a 'normal' stock of 22 ammo. True 500 round bricks of Thunderbolt were $29.99. I'm not a fan of Thunderbolt, but that price isn't much higher than it was before the panic, and they probably had 50+ of them.

Smaller boxes, higher prices, the march continues.

Does this mean that the $8 bricks are gone? :kidding:

Good to see some available.
