.22 Ammo shortage revisited

What is it with .22 RF ammo? A few weeks ago I found some CCI Mini Mag for sale and bought a couple of boxes. I'm looking around now and all I can find available is the Remington promotional ammo for four to five times its normal selling price.

None of the LGS's have .22 RF ammo. It's like a switch is being thrown. It's available, it's not available, it's available, it's not available. I don't consider 80-90 buck a brick for cheap promotional ammo as available. I consider that crazy.

Is it that demand has completely outstripped supply? or has the antigun antics of the left drove gun owners over the edge and they're behaving like a bunch of hoarders? Either way I can work around it, and do. Yet I miss the (good old?) days of fully stocked ammo shelves.

Went to our local Cabela's a few weeks ago and the shelves were full of ammo, cool! The clerk came out and put 3000 or so rounds of .22LR on the shelves
and all the shoppers went nuts and within maybe 15 minutes all the .22's were gone. I didn't see anyone buying any other caliber just the .22's, weird.
