Re: Ammunition Shortage Article
I was unaware of the loaded guns in the national parks thing.
I think there is being prepared and then there is going over board and just raising the prices by hoarding. I don't have as much ammo as i would like but I have enough to feel safe and prepared remember one shot one kill
The adminstration has me worried but I'm not building a bunker yet

Re: Ammunition Shortage Article
I think there is a squeeze but it appears to be easing.On the other hand, acquiring a few xtra rounds never hurts.I've heard things about 223 ammo that make me nervous but not too bad cause I have no 223 guns.A serious threat to reasonable(price wise)ammo is the lead issue.Thats scary and that 'sells' to the general public.AND,the anti's know it.Look around at all the lead 'scares' and 'science' recently,think thats a coincidence?
Want to ease the problem a bit?Join the move to vote out EVERY incumbent,regardless of party.In a free E economy,there will be no shortage of ammo.

Re: Ammunition Shortage Article
I bought a .204 Ruger in April, and finding reloading components was a real pain in the you know what. Bullets where easy to find, but powder and primers were almost impossible to find. Now, however, components are getting plentiful again.

I always try to buy in bulk when I got a few extra bucks. I gaurantee the prices aren't going to go down.
