Still kinda hard to find here in Billings, MT.  I waited to buy the rifle till they had ammo on the shelf.  Then I got 5 boxes whith the gun, went back and got 5 more later.  Now there is none on the shelf, but have dies and shell holder along with 200 FLX tip Hornady's from Midway.  DP

Every so often, I see guys dumping complete setups on Marlin Owners. Good way to get factory ammo, dies, etc for a couple bucks off. There is a used gun at a good price that I have been watching locally. If it goes down another 10% in January, we will see. The store selling it has no ammo for it, never had any ever.

Saw about 4 boxes at Academy Sports & Outdoors in Mobile, AL this afternoon.  Should have bought it and resold it  :D

I watched a couple of used rifles at cabelas in Ft. Worth for a while but
they never had ammo.

All ammo still seems to be in short supply around here, and what is available, is bringing a high price.
