    Get a reloading setup and stock up on reloading components, and you'll stop worrying about this crap. Pluss - it's fun!

    Walmarts in Pensacola, FL:

    Starting to get a trickle of ammo in. This morning they had 3 boxes of 22lr. 8 boxes of 223. Numerous 40, 45, and 9mm. A large amount of 20, 12, 410 shotgun ammo. Need to show up early though because the ammo vultures wake up early and are waiting on the pallet to drop the goods.

    Default Ammo shortage

    The big problem is the Obama administration put in an order for millions of 9mm,40,45,223,357,308 and shotgun rnds to create this shortage to drive prices up. They wont make ammo for civilians until these government orders are filled first. They are buying hollow point ammo also, This cant be used in war the only place they can use it is here. This was done on purpose its all part of their plan. The police departments are buying cases where ever they can find it. I've heard they will have first choice over large lots when they do come in.

    Strange, we just got in a big truck of 308, 5.56mm, 22lr, 380auto, and have been regularly getting in 223 and 9mm as well at our store.

    I am finding nothing here, sportsmans wearhouse told me they are not doing store to store transfers anymore and of several calibers only one box per person per day. They also have no primers or primers or brass. They have some random rifle calibers on the shelves though only bulk pistol ammo they have is in .357 sig. Not much better any of the other stores I have seen here

    Yeah about that... Got a whole reloading kit for Christmas. Even got 30/30 dies and .357 dies. The problem is THERE ARE NO PRIMERS! UGH! Been wanting a kit for years and finally get one that I can't use. I've heard that even the Australians are getting spooked and buying up all the reloading gear and ammo they can.

    I hope this will be like 2009 and everyone will chill in 5 or 6 months but for now it sure does suck. Is it so much to just want to shoot some .38s or 30/30? Sigh...

    It's really sad that here in the "free world" that the right to keep and bear arms is even being debated. The 2nd was written in PLAIN language so there would never be any arguing about is or misinterpretation. These rights we have as Americans are God given; not government approved privileges.
