I’m starting to see more and more Hornady bullets in stores which is encouraging. Still a crap shoot on primers and powder tho.

Are we stuck with another ammo shortage? Appears so here. Hopefully not...
It's still the same limited supply and high demand situation it's been for the last 18 months. We'll continue to experience sporadic bare shelves/rationing depending on regional demand at any given moment. Not likely to change any time soon, and we all know why. Think of it as the new normal ;) .

Lot's of news stories about it lately, if you care to search the web for them - "ammunition shortage".
It seems we have an ammo shortage the first two years of every presidential election since Obama.

I don't have any hard data, but I suspect that periodic ammo shortages go back to at least George Washington. ;) :lol:

I bet there were shortages during WWII also. The year 2008 was the first one that I can remember. George was slightly before my time.
