I was at Bullseye shooting range in Wichita about 2 weeks ago, they actually had some 300 AAC Blackout on the shelf, I counted 10 boxes. I asked for 3 boxes, and they guy helping me said "How about 2, we have a 2 box limit on walk-in purchase customers." So, I took the 2 boxes. Should have sent my dad back into the store after I left to buy another box, but hey, I was happy just to get those 2 boxes.

Yup, 81st Academy has the limit sign up. People need to stop sucking up all the 00 buck and slugs. I like shooting those to cause mayhem at the range and it's hard to do that when they're all being bought up. Target loads are not nearly as fun =(

Do they still have 22 in stock?

It's not worth the drive for 2 boxes. It wasn't worth the drive to look at empty shelves either.

I guess my point is I'll stick to online shopping. I haven't had trouble finding anything I've wanted so far :)

1 box is strict, but its WAY better than nothing. I've got 2 months worth of ammo, tops. So if I pick up my limit every once and a while I could stretch my stock out a bit longer till stuff settles down. I haven't shot any matches lately cause I didn't know if I'd be able to restock any time soon. Academy may have just allowed me to continue to enjoy my favorite sport for the time being.
