21 boxes on gunbroker for 300 plus
Shipping.  The lowest I've bought in the last
3 weeks netted out for 14.00 shipped.
I've run into a lot of 17 HMR on the shelf for
14-16.50 a box lately

17HMR I have been able to locate fairly often, although not always. 17mach2  has been impossible, I thought I had a lead on some in madison, but buddy working down there called to say it was all 17HMR (9.50 a box) so I took 5 of those too... ::)

well I did score some 17mach2 ammo, I found 200 rounds about 30 miles south of me, So tomorrow I am headed to pick it up 60 miles round trip at a cost of 20.00 per BOX! 80.00 for 200 rounds! which isnt the worst deal around, and given the fact that I have 175 rounds in route that should tide me over for a little.... ???

Glad you found some, OUCH is right!! 

My local Cabela's has had 17HMR pretty much non stop for the last year.

Have you looked with them online?

Jeesh guys you could afford the newest whiz bang 17 centerfires for those prices. Maybe even buy a cheap reloading kit and dies, going with any pick of the 17s.

I actually have one of the new 17s on order, and have already puchased 500 rounds of ammo for it. I bought a mach2 sportster and some ammo with it but already had a savage mach2 rifle, just lacking ammo supplies, I have been seeing the mach2 on gunbroker but the ammo is almost as much as the rifles currently.

Here in Va.   we seem to have 17 HMR in stores , not a lot but it is there most of the time. Sometimes you see 22 LR but no selection and not always . 5mm you see some . The rest rim fire is not seen. The exception is the new win 17 that is spotty .
 Price in a word HIGH . 10 bucks for 100 22 LR the rest higher .
If ya can see it ya can hit it !
