Yea I used to think this was not a big issue...until the Walmart's around me were out, my regular online vendors are currently out of ammo too, seriously I agree!
All you have to do is find a place which has the dies and components in stock. I just looked for .380acp dies last night...I'm sure someone somewhere has them for sale, but it ain't Natchez, Midway, Graf, etc. Components (primers and such) for reloading have also gone up and are becoming as sold-out as ammo.Reload

One thing that would help is if people would STOP ordering 1,000-5,000 rounds at a pop, then perhaps ammo could flow out to everyone. Let someone else have a few boxes also to shoot this month. Sure, everyone is in a panic....but WE have created an artificial shortage. The ammo companies, distributors, and politicians are laughing at us all the way to the bank. It's win-win for them....it's lose-lose for us.
I'm seriously considering selling off a lot of my centerfire hand guns, simply because it has steadily become more expensive and more of a hassle to get ammo and/or ammo components to shoot them than it is worth.

I've probably got 5,000 .38 Special cases alone.Reload
What who wants me to do? The ammo suppliers?That is what they want you to do...
My local gun shop...Vance's....one of the largest shops in the state and one which supplies many LEO departments in central Ohio....has not had .380acp for weeks (.32acp also). The salesguys were laughing about it with me when I was in there last week.Again, if you want ammo, order it like I do from my local gun shop, I get better prices and get what I need.
