What I don't get is why the 22 rim fire is hard to come by, granted there is hoarding. The ammo that has been used in these tragic shootings have been .223 and handgun center fire stuff. That would be where a Federal ban would target first, not 22's.

It does look like there has been binge buying of other shooting stuff, but odd that you cannot buy 22's at all unless you wanted to be gouged. The black powder balls seem to be under pressure too, but I can order some if I need to.

How is the production of the foreign brands going, like Sellier and Bellot or Aguilla? Have they upped their manufacture rate?
