Being old school I am really having a hard time seeing a brick (500 rounds) of .22LR go for $40 and up. CDNN has it advertised at the bargain price of $50 a brick.

Oh yeah. It's a ritual with him and 3 other guys that live in the area. One of them is a town cop who buys a few boxes then takes them to a friend's sporting goods store and sells them to him at cost. That way, he's doing his friend a favor and he has a few boxes to sell, too.
It's similar to a bunch of guys around here who always start their mornings at Mickey D's or Hardee's with coffee and breakfast. The only difference is these guys buy .22's instead of breakfast.
During the summer, when I taught summer school, I would join them. But, now that summer school's over, my buddy's looking out for me.

a couple weeks ago I scored 3k of .22lr at walmart. It was about $50/1000. on top of what I already have I probrably have about 6 or 7k of .22lr so I am set for a while. I haven't shot any since early 2013.

I think the days of cheap .22 ammo are over guys! Just buy when you can.

$25/500 is high, but not astronomical. In the early 2000s I remember .22lr being around $7-$9/500. Fair price these days would probably be around $15-$18/500 if it werent for the shortage.
Don't forget we used to laugh at the .50 BMG guys for paying $1 a round in those days. Now a box of .308 hunting ammo is $1/ round or more. Hell, have you looked at .44mag lately?

Local Wally world has the same guys every morning. So I hear. Normally I am at work at that time. Not hurting here. But might go this morning.
