This was brought up at the picnic. There's a similar statement on the web by Hornady.

Good info.....but I think its people hoarding....I waited almost a month for reloading components and finally my local gun shop received a shipment and I got lucky....

In my opinion...hoarders suck.  They are creating this false supply and demand scenario that will, in the long run, create higher prices for consumers. 

Also, those who are purchasing the over inflated prices for ammo and components are enabling this supply and demand scenario. 

Everyone just needs to take a deep breathe and wait for the prices to stabilize.

People are ready to believe scare tactics today more then ever before in history. Our politicians have people believing the sky is falling. Look at the stock market. It is doing better then ever in history. Same with bullets

And as with bullets the stock market is climbing on false pretenses.  10 years another bubble will burst.

Hey Buckwheat,  You made great calls.  You would do better for all of us making some more and not wasting your time paying attention to the stock market.  Dick

I have been making 100s of calls. The government just buys then up and they never get to the hunters.
I only look at the market to see how much to charge for the calls. :-)

Ha Ha.... I know Home Land Security had a plan... That's who is buying all of Buckwheats calls. They are using your calls on the border  to call in  Illegals... Why that's why the government took FoxPro old show name and now use it... You all have heard of  "Fast & Furious" i'm sure!!!

Last week after relentless scouring of online stores,  I finally found and bought 10,000 rounds of 223 for the zombie apocalypse.   I wish that ammo wasn't so hard to get.   It just makes me angry.
