Ammo Shortage Update

[HanzMcFeely]

I knew things were bad but reality hit me today when I can*t find any .243 Winchester on line. Holy crap it*s an age old hunting round and completely out of stock! May check in store places to see what*s out there.

I have 3 or so boxes so not an emergency but I thought it would be expensive, not unobtainable.

Same here with 270Win. Not that I need it, but would rather not dip into my 300 rounds on hand until I can get enough stuff to reload it all.

Hunting calibers will take longer to come back into stock vs your average run of the mil(spec) stuff once the panic drought ends...

IF... IF the panc/drought ends.

Ammoseek found 1 box of .243 in the continental US, some place selling a box of 20 for $95!

I saw a couple boxes of 243 last week at Dunham’s in hazelton. Also wal mart in sinking spring, palmyra, and Lebanon.

Might want to check the poofa classifieds. I saw some for sale recently.

270Win...short mag won’t work

Not that I really *need* it per se...just trying to increase my bumper crop of it to 500 rounds on hand. I’m zero’d in with Winchester deer season XP until I can load/find someone to load the 100 rounds of nosler ballistic tip I have the supplies for
