Since the other thread got closed right after I put in the research and likely seconds before I was ready to post, I'm going to just drop this here so I don't feel like I wasted my time.
Copper mine output lower because of Covid shutdowns and restrictions:

Here's one that hit me, can't find any Caffeine Free Coke which is my leading ingredient in Woodford and Coke. Aluminum shortage:

Mexico shut down much of their manufacturing. I assume that impacted Aguila, and likely hurt many of the raw materials used for ammo even more.

I don't know if any of you have done any home projects in the last year, but I've done a couple and lumber is basically twice the price from 2019. I've gone into Lowe's multiple times and can't even find the lumber I need. Here's a time back in September I needed some treated 2x4's and there was none. I couldn't even buy a larger piece and rip it because there just wasn't ANY treated lumber that day. Imagine if lumber was like ammo, and people started going to the store every day and panic buying JUST because they saw the shelves were nearly empty?
