Yes I'm aware this has been going on for months and quickly getting more scarce. But its seems to have come to a point where the tiny bit that was trickling out has stopped.

As if it wasnt hard enough to find...it now seems there is virtual no new rifle of shotgun hunting ammo hitting the net or shelves as of last week. There for the last several weeks if was able to be found online by frequent looking. I'm seeing nothing now except for sky high priced stuff and odd ball stuff no one can use. What gives? Most hunting ammo is made in limited runs right before hunting season. Hunting season is mostly over so no more until August or so. In a sea of stupidity, this post stands out like a beacon in the night.

What's the situation on 22lr?
Are reloading supplies also scarce? Plenty of both at Trader Joes.

Yeah I hear you. What could possibly be going on in the US that would drive up the demand for ammunition? I can't think of one single thing really. Nothing at all that would pile increased demand on top of already high demand. This really is a head scratcher. Somebody owes us an explanation.

I delivered almost 10k rounds to various people on my UPS route today. Midway musta had some come in at some point b/c it was all IWI 5.56 stuff. Delivered a bunch of 9mm from Freedom Munitions to others and they all said that you have to be sitting around the computer waiting on it to show "in stock" I gottta work.....

I really don’t buy the “reasons” we are being given for the almost complete dearth of ammunition and components. Someone turned off the spigot.

I disagree, I think they throttled it to capitalize on the extremely high demand and they are fueling each other. Something will give, tensions are too tight

Is there an ammo and component shortage going on?

Sign up for in stock email alert. The email has a link to the product you want to buy. You can literally pause what you are doing and buy it in 30 seconds of receiving the email alert.
