Re: The hunting ammo shortage is real
I keep 2-3 boxes for all my hunting rifles, so I am good for a while. Last year I put a 6.5 Grendel together and bought some Russian ammo to sight in and two boxes of Federal Fusion. That will have to last me a long time. When you see it for sale now it is 2-3 bucks a round.

Re: The hunting ammo shortage is real
Hopefully at prices that discourage hoarding. $6 a round, per year, would be fine with me.
There are two kinds of guns. Those I have acquired, and those I hope to.

Re: The hunting ammo shortage is real
My friend has sold off half his 30.06, all of his .308 and all of his .300 winmag.
Ammoseek does list .300WinMag for under $40 a box with free shipping.
I could stop reloading today and be set for a while for most common calibers and shotgun sabots.
My friends 7mm mag is selling for $2 a round and his .06 ( off brand mfgs) @ 25 a box.
I might look into a .44, .41 or.357 mag rifle. I don't know why.Opinions are like anal apertures. They all stink but mine.

Re: The hunting ammo shortage is real
I seen some .243 at Walmart in Matamoras the other day. They didn't have much else. I really thought things would be a little better by now. I haven't hardly shot at all in the last year and a half. Between the ammo shortage and the crazy amount of people at the range, it just sucks now.
Any vote for a third party is a vote for a Democrat. You are the enemy.

Re: The hunting ammo shortage is real
Some disjointed thoughts on this topic
Remington stopped producing ammo after bankruptcy. The new owners had to get new licenses etc and only a month ago started production. So the Remington or core lokt ammo you have been looking for has not been produced for over a year, and is only now getting back into production.
I shoot a lot of different calibers including .243. One thing I noticed since Sandy Hook is the .243 was the last ammo to disappear in a buying crisis. Now that it has gone away I*m not sure how quickly it will return
I was pleasantly surprised that the 6.5 creedmore seems to be sporadically available.
