My kid works at Wal-Mart and periodically get me some .22s when shipments come in.

CCIs are consistently what they've been getting in. In the last 4 months he's brought me CCI Standard Velocity, Mini-Mags, and yes, Stingers.

Ironically, I've been shooting less .22s than what I give away to folks who just can't find any.

Someday, 22 will drop in price. General inflation dictates that it won't be the same $10 for 500, but supply will catch up with demand someday (which is why no one is building a new 22 plant...sell all you can make now, no reason to take a gamble as eventually that plant will be excess capacity when normal turns return to the retail business)

Forgot that i had sent an inquiry to CCI for you. The response:
TJW815, we are still making the Stinger round of ammunition. We make ammunition to order and this round is not ordered as often as some of the other rounds and this makes it hard to find.

So, who do we need to talk to about ordering then?? So I asked what it would take to order direct (I know a LONG shot).
TJW815, we only sell to distributors, we have no openings. I've attached a list of distributors for you to contact.
If anyone wants the list PM me your email address.

Why would no one be ordering Stingers?..To me it is the best varmint hunting .22 round there is
"Lord, make my hand fast and accurate.
Let my aim be true and my hand faster
than those who would seek to destroy me.
Grant me victory over my foes and those who wish to do harm to me and mine.
Let not my last thought be 'If I only had my gun."
And Lord, if today is truly the day you call me home
Let me die in a pile of empty brass."
Amen

Think like a business person. You want what you can get the most of, at the lowest cost. Have you noticed all the standard velocity stuff out there right now??

Yeah..That and low velocity is mainly all I have seen in .22lr.

You want 22? Two words - Brass Badger. (http://www.brassbadger.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

I have netted thousands of 22LR rounds over the past year with this little app. Federal 550 packs... Remington 222 Golden Bullet packs.... Winchester 1000 round bulk packs... CCI.... Winchester.... It's all there if you check periodically. The app and website works great and it has been my experience that it is near real time.
