Lol, yes, democrat presidents are good for the gun and ammo industry. Since Obama was elected guns have been flying off the shelves. Ammo became very difficult to get. I learned that truism in the early 90's. Now I keep 6,000 to 8,000 rounds of .22 on my shelf. Generally, if I get down to less than 6,000 rounds I start to buy a 500 box every time I go to the gun store until I'm stocked back up. That way when ammo gets scarce I can get by for a while. It was frustrating for a a couple of years but the manufacturers are finally catching up. Actually, .22 ammo was available, it just went up in price from something like six cents a round to eighteen cents or more a round. I didn't buy any for a few years. I'm stocked back up again now though.

Fortunately, most of what I shoot other than .22 I make myself. Components tend to be easier to obtain. Although gunpowder went up about 20% too.

Start stocking up on powder and primers just in case; primers especially were nearly impossible to find during the last election and Titegroup and Varget might as well have been unicorn blood.

The stock price of ruger and remington went up about 10 fold since the articulate guy with the big ears moved into the white house. Those in the stock market know that chairborn rangers can be depended on to react predictably.

Hum, you went to a lot of trouble proving my stated point. Are you hitting on me? I have to tell you, if you, that I'm just not in to 12-year old boys who live in their moms basement.

If your stated point was that you are a liar then I successfully showed that .22 long rifle ammo is half of what you said it was.
Jesus you are phoquing stupid.

Actually, if you get email alerts from MidwayUSA you can get .22 cheaper than that. You're looking at the everyday price. What you failed to see, or more probably understand, was the part where I said it got pretty bad for a couple of years but manufacturers were finally catching up. So while you've show that, yes, prices are down now that manufacturers are catching up, you haven't shown what the prices were a couple of years ago. Which is real weird since earlier you use a 2007 study to refute my mentions of current 2015 and 2016 studies on eating and cholesterol. So I know you can look back a few years.

Oh...wait! Silly me. You went back to 2007 for the cholesterol studies to try and prove 2016 studies wrong so you could be a little boy smarty pants and now your using a current price to refute prices a few years ago to be a little boy smarty pants. So your real point is that you're a little boy who wants to be a smarty pants. I get it now.

A few years back, '12 I think, the few places you could even get .22s they were as much as $10.00 for a box of 50.
