Re: Why arent ammo dealers being resupplied?
Do you really have a belt fed .30-30? I buy mixed range brass from a club on the north side of PGH and one time I got a bucket containing 550 pieces of .30-30 brass. I thought to myself, dang someone must have a belt fed .30-30! If one existed I’m guessing it would be a 1919 with converted barrel and bolt.

Re: Why arent ammo dealers being resupplied?
I'd say it's mainly at the retailer level, although I'm sure manufacturing costs have went up a little too. Last time I bought some 5.56 a couple of months ago at Rural King a box of 150 was $34.99 which works out to .23 cents a round. Meanwhile I was also paying .60 - .70 cents a round at other places that had stock available.

Re: Why arent ammo dealers being resupplied?
Ha that would be pretty easy with anything 1919 and earlier. Between 54R and 303 both being rimmed, there a number of viable options of old iron for a 30-30.
Not the most cost effective option, but still pretty dang cool.
As for the ammo, just in the past 20 days of the new year there have been 80,xxx transfers through PICS.
That is a transfer/transaction not the quantity of firearms changing hands with multiple sales per transaction.
I can personally vouch for over a dozen new firearm owners from that 80K, and they need ammo too.HGW, llc ~ Title 1 & NFA sales/manufacturing ~ Transfers - Title 1 $20 - NFA $50

Re: Why arent ammo dealers being resupplied?
All one has to do is look at our own Classifieds...gouging going on here as well as out in the marketplace.
Some here are selling .22 ammo for .26 cents a round...fucking obnoxious. And you wonder why the retailers, wholesalers are inflating their prices too? Greed is the name of the game. If you have it, command whatever price you want. If you don't...pay up.
Not that hard to figure out with all of the panic going on...and to continue for the foreseeable future. Consider learning to reload or at a minimum, pick up the speed on your keyboard to buy ammo.

Re: Why arent ammo dealers being resupplied?
We started the year off weak with ammo availability due to covid and the scare of the riots/looting. A lot more new 1st time gun owners. Then much of the raw materials we need for primers slowed down coming from China. Then Remington tanked. That was a huge hit to ammo availability. One of the primary ammo manufacturers just stopped. Then the presidential race and all the things Bie_DUN said he was going too do. To be honest 2021 is just a mess for the ammo industry. Many factors contributed to the current condition we're in. They just all happen in relative close time which did not bode well for the market.
