20,000 people looking for ammo.

Midway has had 1,000,000 unique customers this year.

There is no where on the internet that is not out of stock for pistol bullets.

Magazines are sold out.

Ruger, the biggest gun manufacturer, is not taking any more orders.

Today I saw bricks of Rem Thunderbolt 22 ammo sell for $75 each.
And people were buying them.

Perhaps those of us that shoot more than 100 rds per session?

Last weekend, I fired 350 rds.

Next question?

All of them. Anyone who actually goes to the range with any regularity
knows that 100 rds is nothing.

Trolling?
or
You do not own a gun?
The reference was for .22 ammo.
There are a lot of small bore match shooters and wannabees.
For practice, a brick is probably the normal purchase to have on hand.

Even in Canada, Small bore rifle .22 is the most popular competitive
shooting sport and .22 handguns are permissible for competition. Canada,
actually, sends men and women all around the world to represent Canadian
shooting interests.

You knew all that, and are trolling.

So you have an expensive hobby.. I can see it if you are a target
shooter - but it's not target shooters that are causing the run on
ammo. It's nut-cases figuring they need enough ammo to run a private
or civil war for 4 years again.

If there really is a persistent shortage of the stuff, that seems very
peculiar. The stuff is very cheap to produce - old technology - and the
production lead times are short. A persistent shortage points to some

I'm fortunate that I ordered a few cases of selected calibers before all
hell broke loose. It's like anything else you might buy at Sam's,
COSTCO, etc. it's cheaper in bulk and it doesn't go bad.

I'm curious about that. Why doesn't it go bad? Why wouldn't the
chemical composition of the powder change over time? Perhaps slowly,
but I'm wondering why it wouldn't change.

It may well change over time, however sealed in the cartridges and
stored under reasonable conditions it doesn't deteriorate rapidly enough
to mater in human lifetime scale. The ammunition I purchase today will
be just as good and useable in 40-50 years when I'm expected to drop
dead.

As long as the ammo is stored in cool dry areas ammo will last FAR longer than the human
who has it. I have some 8mm that is from the tail end of WW II. Fires just fine. The most
common failure is the case itself corroding through if it gets banged around and ruins the
coating.

That's your parnoid conclusion. The USA will NEVER have more
