    Default Bullet Shortage

    Is it me or is there a shortage of pistol bullets? Seems like every web site I go to most of the pistol bullets are on back order. Specifically I'm looking for 380, 38, and 357

    Nope. Never heard of such a shortage. Are you sure?

    I tried several of the web sites listed in this forum and they all show back-ordered

    www.ammunitiontogo.com - check 'em out if you haven't already.

    I had ordered some Speer 9mm hollowpoints from them a little while back. Got a personalized e-mail a day or two later that said they were backordered, and would I like to make another choice? They had updated their site to show new stock, so I e-mailed 'em back to order some Remington hollows instead. The order arrived in a few days.

    Good company, as far as I'm conerned.

    Dude...

    First, welcome to PAFOA.

    Second, my above comment was sarcasm. Using the search function will find about eleventy billion threads on ammo scarcity, ammo price, etc.

    I am pretty sure that ammunitiontogo.com only sells cartridges.

    If you are looking for bullets, as in reloading components, here you go:

    Bullets do not seem to be a problem. Cartidges seem to be. My to local little guys can not get shit. they are limiting what you buy. But the big boxes seem to have plenty. Brass seems to be tough to unless you go to the big boxstores

    Yes I was looking for bullets for reloading. Mostly for my brother who was looking for 380 and 357. Thanks for the link to grafs they had the 357 bullets. My apologies to Paradigm for not doing a search first. It's been a while since I had to purchase any ammo, I have a good friend who reloads for me but today I went into the local sporting goods store to get a brick of 22's which I paid $ 8.99 on sale for last year today they were $22. Ouch. The guy behind the counter said it was being caused by the currrent administration's position on gun control which would cause any avid shooter to start hoarding ammo. In any case I guess I was just a little surprised to see so many things on back order from dyes to bullets
