Surely they can fix whatever the hang-up is. It’s not even right that $0.77/rd is the cheapest price I can get target loads shipped for.

The demand is far too great for the supply. Any store gets a shipment, everyone stocks up. There will be a "shortage" until the end of time.

I just want remans . Bulk ammo to pew pew, but none of the reloaders have stock. At these prices I may as well buy all hollow points.

You could probably melt down quarters for bullets and still make money.

When people lose interest again, and 9mm is down to .20 a round, you need to buy a frick ton. It’ll come back

In August, you’ll be able to buy whatever hunting ammo you’d like after everyone goes fishing this spring and the shelves quietly fill up

Local store here is in a town of 8,000 people and they got a 26k dollar shipment of ammo in the other day. They sold every bit in 2 hours, 90% of it never even saw the shelf. Was sold straight out of the shipping box

We had a shortage for over a year after Sandy Hook, and current events combined with massive gun ownership increase is much much worse than that.

Fix it ? They fixin' to tax the F out of guns & ammo to deter purchases, and redistribute tax $ to Gov't assistance programs.

the Market should correct itself. I've seen plenty of ammo show up online but its really expensive. So expensive that i'm not willing to buy it and probably lots of other people saying the same thing. This should eventually allow the supply to catch up.

Plan for things shooting related to get infinitely worse in 2022, like nazi Germany prior to the II war.

Not happening. There are millions of them out there. They plan to turn 100+ citizens into criminals? Our prison system isn't capable.

Ammo is a different story. But I think ammo will start making its way back at the end of the year.

I paid $90 shipped for 2 boxes (40 rnds) of Hornady 150gr SST .308 yesterday. It was limit 2 or I probably would have got more.

They already consider them criminals if they own a AR.

Talking about it on the campaign trail and doing something unconstitutional are two different things

Anybody think their firearms are "safe" is making a bad mistake. Hate to say it but we better hope Biden gets tied down with vaccine rollout because they now have enough votes for just about any ban they want.
