Ammo companies causing this shortage?

I remember feeling like that when Clinton was elected.

Now that you remind me. I was too young to understand politics when he was elected. What I do remember is one of my teachers was a big Clinton fan. She was a really big woman. Many unhealthy women on the left. It makes sense now. Sorry off topic. Back to ammo talk

When I got up from bed that night to see what the airboats were doing I was almost up to my knees in water.
Air boats said last trip in and we left with a change of underclothes in a bag. I dropped my flood insurance the year before the flood after paying my last house note. It was several days before I returned and someone had broken in and cleaned me out.

This sounds like a true story.
If it is, I am truly very sorry life dealt you that hand.
If it's not, good job!

I definitely see some patterns with women on the left. LOL

I don't own a boat now, but all my stuff got ruined during the Great Watson flood of 2016! lol

I remember that chaos all too well.
I'm sorry if you suffered losses during that insane event, Bam Bam.

Back then you could get 1000 rounds of 7.62X39 for $100. Yes, $100!

That's a major hit, JBP. Truly sorry that happened to you.

Looks like 1.00 per round 5.56 is right around the corner.

Looks like they are banning the export of gun and ammo out of the country for 90 days. Why only 90 days?

Any idea when this sort of measure has happened in the past? I don’t know, legit question.

That’s what I get for skimming and not a through read.

I'm no convinced by disgruntled employee tales, but hey, it gets clicks. It just does not make sense to not sell as much as you can as quickly as you can. Like many have recounted, I felt the first real pinch years ago. We all recall the NOT Cheaper than Dirt prices for ammo only they had in stock. The price they were asking for 380 acp got me started hand loading then and I never looked back.

Buying two pounds of powder when I only 'needed' one. Buying 3k primers when I knew that I would have to find more shelf space for what I was not going to use right away. Bullet casting? Yeah, let's give that a try to.

I don't think it is ever to late to gain a little bit of independence from the retail ammo game. Learn to roll your own.

Maybe so they can work on some huge order? Bullets for the military's foreverwars perhaps?

I don't know how true it was but a friend was telling me that Winchester was instructed not to sell Lake City over run to civilians anymore. Don't know

I saw this on YouTube as well

They don't need to sell me anything. I can measure just primers in cubic feet. LOL

Small rifle primers, and small rifle NATO primers (for firearms with free-floating firing pins) are very abundant right now, as is powder for that cartridge.

Yup - Get some and a single stage set up if that is all the budget can handle. It is not as hard as people think, but it IS rocket science.

Even the Lee Loader all in one kits can get the job done.

It is definitely "rocket" science. LOL
