Any predictions on the end of the ammo shortage? Other than shotgun shells for upland birds and waterfowl, I haven't seen any of the centerfire ammo I use for almost three months.

If this is truly the case, we can expect the wild hog population to explode and the deer population to starve do to population increase.

When the hoarding ceases.

You have to be kidding. One box of ammo is enough for 4 or 5 deer seasons. That's if you tag out.

Yeah, we will probably need to get a back ground check before we can get a box of ammo!

When it does end (probably next year sometime), do yourself a favor and stock up so you have ammo for the next shortage.

That's right. This is being caused by the consumers. This is like a toilet paper run.

Do people really think they're going to outlaw .270 cartridges?

Depends if they actual do enough research to understand what an armor piercing round is. Since basically any round above a .223 will penetrate body armor I wouldn’t doubt it if someone actually figures it out and gives it a try.

I know it's capitalism and if people are willing to pay their prices......found this auction and all I can do is scratch my head. That auction is still going and even if it stopped here, that's over $6 a round. Just crazy.
