Some of those dealers are smokin' something for the prices they are asking. Two dealers were asking $25 per 50 round box of .17 HMR. I was just in Cabela's and it's $11.99. I looked at a Henry .22 lever action for $269 and they were $319 to $329 for the exact model at the show.
I'm grabbing some lunch at Bass Pro after picking up a box of Federal Auto Match 325 rounds for $21.99 including tax. They have a good supply of it.
At that price, they can keep it. I am sure some fool will pay those prices.

I just bought 1000 rounds from cabelas yesterday online for $50
When I was at Bass Pro they had some already tied in a plastic bag behind the counter. It's a one box limit per person per day. I saw at least 25 boxes already wrapped and at least another 12 locked in the cabinet under the guns.
I just went to Cabelas website and the only .22 ammo they have listed is 100 rounds of CCI Maxi-Mag for $8.99. I've checked them on occasion and have not seen any LR on their site since Christmas.
You're doing it wrong. Make sure you already have an account with cabelas, and sign up to get the email alerts from slickguns.com. If you get an email from slickguns for some of the bulkpack .22lr ammo (375 round Mini-Mags, 1000 rounds M22, 2100 rounds of Fed value pack, etc) you gotta be pretty quick, and you can get straight to cabelas website from the email alert and add one to your cart and have it shipped free to the store. You are in P'ville, so just swing by and pick it up once you get a phone call that its in.
My order was $50.44 . I had some club points available .You sure it wasn't $54.24?
A few months ago I bought a 555 value pack of Federal .22 hollow points at Academy for around 23.00 Month before last at the Gonzales show some douche nozzle was trying to sell the exact thing for $150.00 Unbelievable ! You can find good deals at Academy but you have to be there when they open at 8:00 am It's either hit or miss because you never know what they have. But I find the prices to be reasonable.
I'm happy to say by the time we left the gun show a few hours later, the $150.00 boxes were still there. You can usually tell which vendor has the reasonable prices because they sell out rather quickly.
