    Arrow The other high priced precious metal- Ammunition.

    For the 2A people here, hope you stocked up as prices are super inflated by 300-800%. A box of 50 rounds of 9mm FMJ used to run around $10-12 is now $80-90. Its all calibers too- 22, 380, 9mm, 38 special, 40 and 45. If you havent stocked up prior, try to slowly get what you can over time now.

    2020 Ammo Shortage- Where has all of the ammo gone?

    December 23, 2020

    Firearm and ammunition retailers and wholesalers were sitting on piles of inventory during January 2020. By December 2020, the same racks and shelves are empty. And there is no sign of relief in sight. Gun owners are stockpiling — and shooting less.

    So, what happened? The year 2020 happened. Take an election year with significant consequences for gun rights and add a global pandemic event. Then, factor in the rioting in cities and urban centers throughout the U.S., and you just created an unprecedented demand for self-defense tools.

    Still, many consumers can’t fathom the lack of availability of ammunition. To search for an understanding, Guns & Ammo’s staff reached out to executives from several ammunition makers for a clearer picture of what is going on.
    And then there is the price gouging..

    That's right you shoot your way out of any problem. What are you stockpiling ammunition for? Big wildlife got you worried? They are coming for you, you know it. The high priced metal is in your skull.

    LOL the ammo price gouging. Since it mostly affects the 2A gun nuts like the OP, it couldn’t happen to better people.

    I’m not a “gun nut”, never said that. I also like poker and into poker, but not a “poker nut”. Your layperson label dumbs you down.

    This is why I don't see strong gun control legislation out of the Biden Administration.

    2020 taught people the need for having their own weapons -- a lesson slowly forgotten over the past several decades.

    Druff- But Kamel-Toe wants it bad and Biden has stated in the past and even bringing on Beto to do it, so still worried. But you’re also right if you look at the history, Obama didn’t really touch gun control in 8 years.

    I don’t need anymore. I have about 10 boxes of 300 WSM, 6 boxes of 30-06, and another ten of 270. Got a whole bucket of 22 and some boxes of 17 hmr. The only ammo I need that I can’t find anywhere is 32 win special. I have to special order it no one makes it anymore.

    No, I have a few boxes and I never shoot the gun. It was my great grandfathers so it sits in the safe except maybe once every 8 years.
