With guns & ammo of all calibers flying off the shelves, this doesn't surprise me. I expect the other manufacturers are doing the same. When the fish are biting, keep fishing. :)

You have to be careful reloading their brass though. Primers don't always seat well.

It's funny, (interesting) seeing the local ammo run.. One larger locally owned sporting goods store that always has a good selection of ammo has closed for two weeks because of the virus. The other (even bigger) fleet type store is completely out of 9mm, 30-30, .223, .270, and pretty much everything else. Except there is gobs of .44 mag on the shelf, and a number of boxes of 45 colt, 454, 45-70, 300 mag, and (believe it or not) tons and tons of .22 long rifle. It's good to hear that Hornady is gonna keep trucking. I also like a lot of their stuff.

I have never really shot that much of their ammo, I do have several boxes and a couple different calibers sitting in the ammo safe.
For back up, most all of my shootin is done from my own loading.
I do have a variety of their bullets here for that purpose though.
