The shortage for .22 is nationwide. It's been that way since Sandy Hook.
If you want it bad enough, you need be one of the first few people in line when they open at most places like Bass Pro, Cabelas, or Academy.
Walmart has been the best source locally, but you have to want that ammo pretty bad. Check their website or download their app to find out what is going to be on the shelf the next morning. Most Walmarts around here start selling ammo at 7 AM. If you even want a shot at some .22, you need to be waiting in line hours ahead of time. And you're limited to 3 boxes.
Another good source is
slickguns.com. I've scored a fair amount of .22 from that website over the last several months.
