I can tell you guys for a fact, Hornady's about shut down due to the bologna virus. When coupled with demand, there you are...
Yes the Chinese virus is a big problem in supply chains, but it's not like they have a bunch of people using hand loaders. I mean these are automated processes, no? If anything can be manufactured through an automated assembly I would think ammo would be.
If you have a big supply problem....what are you going to make with your automated processes?
Well ... obviously nothing, but why do one minute you hear they are running 24/7 and the next minute they are shut down.
I'm just curious as to what "supplies" exactly are in short supply. How short.
That's just the way I think. I like numbers. I always dig deeper than, "okay, thanks for the explanation".
I can only speak for federal, they do not have a supply issue with raw materials it is strictly a demand issue. They can only produce so manyRounds per day, and the demand exceeds that.They also do not produce every caliber they are capable of producing every day.
