Another ammo shortage?
Are we stuck with another ammo shortage? Appears so here. Hopefully not...

Re: Another ammo shortage?
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 .Ozarkwoodswalker wrote: ↑Wed Aug 25, 2021 4:18 amAre we stuck with another ammo shortage? Appears so here. Hopefully not...
Lot's of news stories about it lately, if you care to search the web for them - "ammunition shortage".

Re: Another ammo shortage?
Well, I haven't been to any of the gun shops around here since the first of June.
Sure glad I got into reloading quite the few years ago, still pretty well set on the components.
If and when the primers start showing back, I'll grab a few thousand of each.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Re: Another ammo shortage?
Great article, I was thinking of starting in reloading, but with all the reports of little or no reloading materials in this forum sounds like it will be a while.GunnyGene wrote: ↑Wed Aug 25, 2021 8:54 amHere's a recent story out of Minnesota:

Re: Another ammo shortage?
The factory ammo shortage never stopped here, I believe the real heartache is the shortage of reload supplies which was always the ol standby.. Even the non reloaders usually knew someone that did..

Re: Another ammo shortage?
Ammo seems to be in fairly good supply here. Not all manufacturers but most all calibers can be had now without limitation. It may be Aguila, Tula, etc, and a few major brands but at least on hand.

Won't be seeing that Tula any longer, once what's here at the moment is gone.Shakey Jake wrote: ↑Wed Aug 25, 2021 1:54 pmAmmo seems to be in fairly good supply here.
