It is all that Bass Pro has in stock. It is a good time to be a skeet shooter and foul hunter…

Lately that depends on what store you are at, and what day you are there. I was told to go by Bass Pro in San Antonio because they had racks of bird shot and tons of rifle ammo, nothing. They did have some steel shot (a few scattered loose boxes) which is better than Academy has now.

I have seen lots of 28 gauge everywhere I go.

I'm finding ammo pretty regularly at the mom and pop stores in small towns. Hoffy's in Burnet has a really good selection of most ammo, Rods, Guns, and Strings in Marble Falls has a decent selection, and a shop in Llano just south of 29/16 has a good selection as well. The last time I was in Hoffy's outdoor store in Lampasas, it was stocked pretty well too. I am having trouble finding 22.250 though.

This

That auction ended and did have a winner, so what you found has to be another auction for more of the same ammo. There's still a lot more suckers out there with more money than sense.

As I was running around last week looking for bird/skeet shot I asked the guy at Academy about 2506 that a friend was looking for. He said to show up early on Monday, that is when they get trucks in.
Well clearly two minutes early ain't enough.

Glad I planned ahead...

Finally started ordering custom ammo. They are cheaper than gun shows and auctions,

Same here.
I have heard too many people ask me about different ammo. Many have asked if I have spare ammo or if I could go look for it.
After 2009 I determined that would never be me again.

I lucked into 3 boxes of Federal 45 ACP yesterday for $24.95 a box of 50. Beats a sharp stick in the eye.

After someone mentioned in an earlier post the value of their stored ammo, I started thinking about buying a locking cabinet. Then it hit me that because I store all my ammo in a small closet, just replacing the existing door knob with one that provides keyed entry would be much cheaper and probably provide just as much security. Granted, a safe just to store ammo would be the best solution but a locked door is better than nothing. It's a solution that will also keep the grand kids out once they get big enough to go nosing around the house.

I think that my ammo is now worth more than my guns.

I've been assured that this is just veterans restocking their own supply and in no way is this contributing to the shortage of ammo nor the gross pricing done by scalpers gougers scumbags these fine gentlemen.

I dropped by my local Academy early yesterday morning to pick up some fishing tackle. When I left, I noticed a guy in front of me with a shopping card that must have had a dozen or more boxes of 12-guage ammo covering the bottom of it.

Yes sir. It's out there. Found Blazer brass, 230 grn FMJ 50 round box was $23.99

Just went to the academy nearest me to look for some Columbia shorts. They had khaki and grey, no spring colors yet. They did have 30-06, 243, 45-70, 6.8 SPC II, 308, 450 Bushy, 7.62x39 and 40 SW. Also 12 and 28 bird shot. There was not a line for ammo.

I was told these people weren’t making a difference in the shortage

I believe mine is too. Crazy.

At 3 boxes per person, must be about 100 + boxes in that line.

I've never gone, but I was told it's 3 boxes per caliber per person. So one could leave with 3-243, 3-270, 3-30/06 etc.

Sign at mine today said 3 boxes per person all calibers.

Stopped by an Academy today and they had .17hmr and 1 box of 10mm

Well, that was about two months ago, that I asked. Maybe they have changed it now so that more customers can get product.

Probably

I was at my local Academy Saturday, there were signs all over the place saying 3 boxes of ammo total per person. Then a customer asked an employee about the ammo and he mentioned they are saving one box of pistol ammo per pistol for new purchases. Of course there really wasn't a gun to be seen to buy.
