Lol! You cannot be serious. This was totally nothing more than back door gun control. This does not hurt Russia one bit. Squeezing Russia would have been going after their energy sector with sanctions, not ammo.
Wow, I cannot believe I read this on a gun forum of all places.
I'm sorry, did ammunition suddenly become illegal or controlled in some new way? Or can you buy the exact same ammo you could before? The only difference is the place it comes from, and you can still buy Russian ammo that is already in the USA. This doesn't prevent you from importing ammo from almost any other country on earth.
and given the pro-US proclivities of most people on this board, I'm surprised to see people so upset about this. Russia is a state sponsor of terrorism who has no qualms about meddling in US elections, pumping out propaganda, funding genocidal dictators, etc. Yes, ammo is going to remain expensive, boo freaking hoo. If that impacts your hobby, maybe its time to cut back other places or get a part time job to fund your ammo habits.
