Is the ammo shortage finally over? I've noticed that most of the local stores have a full range available. I'm just curious, what happened to make it go in such short supply anyhow?
Ammo is freeing up but the damage is done, the price of even Walmart ammo is above where we used to be. I can remember when I could buy 9X18 for 6 dollars a box. Now ammo costs more for 20 rounds than it did 50 years before. Reloading components have gone up also, and there is still shortage of powders.
Solus they will kill the sale of 22 firearms. When reloading supplies become more available it is cheaper to reload than buy 22. And centerfire is more reliable than 22 rimfire.
Yikes! How old are you??? :shocker:
When Midway USA is out of .22lr (except for high end target ammo), something ain't right.
the video media acts like .22 is still the cheapest and easiest ammo.may be if you can find it
I am still not convinced there isn't some subvert reasons it is scarce
the demand is high there should have been an uptick in manufacturers producing
Snip-- I'm just curious, what happened to make it go in such short supply anyhow?
What happened:
Obama
Newtown, CT
People willing to pay $100 for a bulk box of .22
I feel like I have enough of all the calibers I have guns for, But
I do wish I could get a brick of 22lr.
I think the 22lr problem is caused by hoarders and resellers.
Anybody wonder why these shortages are not prompting/creating new business. Ohhh wait Obamacare, who would open a business and have to deal with so many regulations, as well as being forced to pay ridiculous health care prices.
Any other time in history industry would be booming with demand, not under Obama though.
