The cheapest ammo we saw last trip was 22 LR CCI, going for the same $28ish per 3 pack of 100 per pack, it was here.
Off calibers (for CA) not exactly plentiful , if so $$$$$
It's a valid point. I grew up in CA, continue to own property there and travel back multiple times a year. Ammo is priced a littler higher there but actually not much more in my experience. Then again I'm in the San Joaquin Valley and not in any of the big cities. I see 30-30 there in the shelves as well at 7.62x39. I usually am armed with an SKS when I'm in CA because I don't feel like retro fitting my AR with a bullet button. BTW if you do get an SKS be careful buying a Yugo. If you do you'll need to remove the stock "grenade launcher" muzzle device as it is banned in CA.
