Am I just late to the party on this?

Couldn’t even find birdshot 12 gauge at Cabelas. I was used to not seeing 9mm/5.56 etc, but are you seeing shortages locally on trap/birdshot?

Bare shelfs most places. The little that is available online is about 2 times the cost.

Yes you are.

my son is on his schools trap team.

We ordered 10 cases early last fall and they were just delivered a couple of weeks ago.

We have been able to find some here and there and were able to build his stock pile up to around 25 cases but shooting 300+ rounds a week eats into that pretty quickly.

ETA:
Rogers sporting goods gets them in pretty regularly. Check their site. If they show up, they have them.

Thanks! Couldn’t believe I was going to walk away empty on shotgun shells after hitting two different places at open.

How long is there shipping taking? Sats 16-20 days but I need some by may 1st. You think they'll make it?

Eta: I bought some anyway. Hopefully they make it.

I’ve been grabbing boxes every chance I get. My dumbass shot the couple of cases I had been holding onto. Always figured I could get cases of 7 1/2 easily. We shot skeet all summer, then doves, then had the snip come down this winter.

Yep. Could barely scrape together enough to finish duck season. Decided to go ahead and buy a case for next season and literally the ONLY thing I could find in stock at the time, other than crazy expensive Apex/etc, was some Winchester #4s. Went ahead and scooped those up quick.
