I have been lucky, up here in SD i have been able to find what I need when I want. The prices are up 10% but I can find almost anything....

Default Makes sense

This would make sense. a "Defacto" Ban. Guns can't be taken, do dry up the ammo supply.

Supply in CT seems to be improving somewhat. There has consistently been some availability in .380 and .40 S&W. .223 is starting to be available again, as well as .45 ACP, but pricing is not very good.

A little off topic, but I have seen some $40 PMags recently as well.

Thank God I reload and got into a good supply of .22 lr (which is also starting to reappear)

So perhaps its a bit of both; govt and private hoarding. I hope it ends soon.

went to the range today and bought a box of 45 and 2 of 9mm(their last two boxes). Shot 20 rounds of 45 and a couple mags of my own stock of 9mm (30 rounds). Then loaded 5 rounds out of the boxes I bought at the range for a target shoot. Shot the 5 rounds for the competition, an then left with 95 rounds in the boxes and 30 in the box of 45.

You know we are in dire straights when you can't find any .22 ammo!
In my Life, I haven't seen .22 ammo dry up like this. What's up with that?
