This thread is pure awesomeness!
Eventually Remington, Federal, and Winchesters shareholders are going to realize that its been six years now and these companies have still failed to get .22lr on the countries shelves reliably. The same shelves that are constantly stocked with more complicated rounds to produce. When they fire enough board members to get this situation turned around the 22 Flippers are never going to see Mercedes in the VIP room ever again.

Just over 2 years bro. 22 was readily available pre Sandy Hook. Granted it had only been that way for 9 months or so after recovering from the panic in 2008, but before December 2012 you could walk into any Walmart and buy it.
Would love to see that again soon. It has been slightly better lately though. Very slight.
Errr....22 rimfire is much more complicated to produce and requires a much more skilled labor force that any centerfire ammunition. There is almost no margin in it for manufacturers either. In fact, it's a miracle that most even bother producing it when you consider most modern manufacturing business models.
