AzRednek Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 I just watched that yesterday. I’m still left wondering where the name brand ammo is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FC Posted December 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 I found some ammo at Palmetto on a Wednesday. Limit of one box each caliber. I was very surprised to buy 9mm HP for less than a buck per round! .17HMR was the same price as five years ago! They had some .223, for my brother.

manureman Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 Buddy of mine was telling me about watching a deal a few days ago about the CEO of one of the mega corporations that owns some of the ammunition and components companies. Said this fella claimed they were turning it out as fast as possible, that there were along the lines of 7 million new gun owners just this last year and if each of those only bought 2 boxes of 50 rounds , which is probably very conservative that would be seven hundred million rounds on top of the “panic/hording” buying that’s going on. Won’t say it sounds good but it does sound reasonable. I know folks that have never owned 2 boxes of shells of any kind that are stocking up and others that have never reloaded a single round of any kind and probably never will that have and are buying equipment and components . I’m just as guilty, I bought a shot shell reloader and components that will more than likely be sold as new in the box after I kick and they have my sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Hess Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 An extra billion or so rounds of demand is going to affect supply chains, certainly. Anyone who would think that the manufacturers are NOT making all they can is kinda out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FC Posted December 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 Good video. Who is profiting from these prices besides FedEx/UPS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
