No love for Ruger? How about the iconic 10/22, Mini 14 or 77 series.

That's like Midway. The must get like 10 boxes in. Once you get the email it's in stock it is gone as soon as you hit the website. Any .22 bricks or cans around?

Tip's Hardware in West creek had .223 in stock as of yesterday morning. $12.99 a box no limit. When I was there two guys bought 10 boxes each. Could be gone by now.

How much does the reloading equipment cost? The press and other supplies needed.

Just curious, your home range is Colliers Mills, is that on Colliers Mills road? I drive past there everyday on my way to 195. I take it it is a private range.

Any chance you will get a Sig classic p226 .22 pistol in? A forum member has been going mad trying to find one.

^^^^^^^^THIS^^^^^^ I did this the other day and received an email that I an good to go for ammo purchase. I just wish they got larger supplies in. They seem to sell out in seconds when something comes in stock.

Now that we got that out of the way....... I'LL TAKE IT. lol

If you can't find what you want the use GB for sure. But be cautious, like others said guns listed NIB are sometimes scratched up and have been obviously handled but other people. Lots of times they were store demos or one owner safe queens that were dry fired a couple of hundred times. Some LGS dealers have demos on display and brand new guns untouched in storage so you can get an unmolested gun which may be worth the few extra bucks in the long run. Also remember the guys right around the corner from you will have ammo you need and can take home or to your range and use. Ammo supplies are getting thin as of late. Might be a good idea to start a relationship with the hand that feeds you by buying a gun from them. I have a .22 Buck Mark on layaway waiting for OGAM to pass and I have been stock piling .22 ammo. A few times I stop in the shop where I bought it and the guys always seem to find a brick of .22 lying around for me.

Congrats. Now the fun part, hunting for ammo.

Love the Henry rifles. The only I don't like is the barrel loading. I much prefer the side loading levers.

.22 bricks count as two boxes. Tried to get three and it was a no go. Not even two boxes were allowed. You can get a brick and a box of 50 round ammo.

Went to Tip's Hardware this morning and they did not have a Sig .22 classic. Lots of .22 pistols but not the one you want.

You guys were correct. My ammo was just shipped a day after I placed the order. I had my doubts. Thought I would have gotten a out of stock email. Cabela's seems very efficient and hope to order from them again. Thanks for the tip Frank. How is it you find these deals and when and where ammo is available? Please share your secrets.

I just ordered from some 9 mm yesterday from Cabelas. The order in still being processed and I tried to add a box when it was in stock but the operator would not allow it. If I could order more than one then I would have put another order in but it would have cost me $15 for one box. By the way how did you see that it was back in stock? Does cabelas have a email alert when ammo is in stock or where you just fishing around and got lucky?

What is your budget? I saw a sweet .38 Umberti lever for sale for $800. It is used but looked like it was in very good shape. I don't know how to see if the action is good or has been reworked but it seemed ok on my hands.

Is that gun on your bed? lol I take it you are not married or you wife was away. If I did that my wife would go nuts. :wild:

I put an order in for 5 boxes before it sold out. Sale went through but says " in progress". My first order from Cabelas so I have my doubts it will go through. I have heard of them not shipping to NJ at times. I have my fingers crossed.

Doors should always stay open until the posted closing time. The employees can always tell the person that just walked in that they do not have enough time to complete the transaction. If someone just came in to buy some ammo, mags or supplies the sale should be made but I agree that showing up 30 minutes before close to shoot or buy a gun is a little rude.

I think it will take years before ammo supplies get back to normal. Government buys 7 years worth of ammo in two months. That's a lot of stock to replenish. This is why when shopping for a rifle I want to make sure I can get ammo and use it.

Let's just call him/ her the deceased. Very dangerous, inconsiderate and selfish person. Bullet he used could have easily hit another shooter next to him. Also if young kids were there and witnessed this they could have been traumatized for life.

That's funny. You just said the same thing the guy working at Dick's said to me the other day. He said they almost always have .17 ammo on the shelves since it is not that popular caliber and they only sell one .17 rifle in store. I have seen .17 ammo online much more often the the impossible .22 ammo. I will look into these as well. Thanks for the info.

If they got a shipment, I am sure everything is long gone by now. Doors open at 9 am.

How is the recoil on the .357 rifles? I am am looking for some light recoil to start out with so I can learn the fundamentals of rifle shooting without getting bounced around and have a sore shoulder for a month. I will probably use .38 ammo to start out with. Can you use the same magazines for .38 and .357? Speaking of lever action, I saw a used Uberti .38 lever for sale at my LGS but they wanted $800 which I thought was a bit high. I also really like the lever action guns as well and will add one of those to my collection this summer. Problem is that I am running out of money.

+1 for Dick's. They do enforce the three box max or 1 bulk pack equals two boxes but then again at least more people get some ammo that way. Worked out in my favor a few weeks ago when I was the 10th person in the store to buy ammo. I would have been shut out on .22 lr by the first two guys on line who wanted to buy it all. One guy even said he does not even have a .22 gun. Also this will stop an employee putting away a whole shipment for his buddy to come pick up.
