Curious ...whut online ammo companies do you normally buy from??
I like Midway, Midsouth Shooters Supply & Natchez. The later 2 seem to have the best prices.

Yep. Cabela's primarily online because I get / have points. 9mm online has been nonexistent though. I used to love those sales for $10 or so per 50, but no more. However, I am currently filling a large flat rate box with spent brass to trade in for credit at Freedom Munitions: www.freedommunitions.com/Brass-Credit-Program-s/48072.htmBy my estimate, you can put 40lbs of brass (mostly 9mm for me) in the large flat rate box. If it fits, it ships ($15). I haven't done it yet, but I'm at about 25-30lbs. The winter has slowed me down a bit.

All (73) 9mm Luger products on Graf & Sons are out of stock. Kind of figured. But, at least it's a new place to look.

I think the shortages and hoarding will be longer term than that Loggy.

Sorta like the Y2K hoax which thereafter took a lil while till the powdered milk & Spam found it way back to the shelves!! Im sorta surprised there isn't a run on that too...a lot will have tons of ammo stockpiled but nuttin for their guts!! lol

For me things never did get "abnormal" as i always have quite a few thousand rounds on hand. Once the big manufacturers get production cranked to max capacity they will make more than most will have money to buy.....same as firearms. I think mid-summer. Dutch thinks longer...time will tell but opportunity to grab the almighty dollar ain't gonna be ignored too long!

Obama has been the best thing for the gun business the last 4 years. Newtown and the reaction to it, have created panic buying that will last a long time.

Maybe, just maybe, the citizens of this land aren't hoarding. Maybe they're preparing for battle? Hah! Muab

Not as funny as you think Dib! When our government wants to use drones to kill US citizens in the US of A, we have an oppressive government with a marxist president. Not a good mix for the citizens.

Would four bricks of .22 longrifle be hoarding? Seriously, I think it depends upon how much you like to shoot target. I probably go through a brick and sometimes two bricks of .22 longrifle ammo in any given year. Handgun ammo is another thing. As far as centerfire rifle ammo, I like to experiment on loads and bullets, but when I decide upon a loading I usually put four of five boxes of it together and stick it on the shelf.

I have no pity for any US citizen that takes up arms against us. If that President were a Republican and white, we'd be cheering him on. Three US citizens have been killed. Big whoop. Two wimmin out in Cali were shot because stupid whack job cops decided they needed to be shot because the cops thought they were a nutcase that killed some cops...... People die everyday. I have no worries about killing a couple people that associate with bad guys, and ONE of them was a REAL bad guy.

We have way too many rambo/survivalist types such as the Alabama bunker whacko & soooo on. Glad he was duly exterminated plus hope any other of these types are taken care of in same fashion when they threaten our society.

"I have no pity for any US citizen that takes up arms against us." Who is "us"? The government? Or some crazed mad man. Dutch, this isn't about the ordinary, crazies abound... this is about the extraordinary. The "worm" will turn over the next year or two and if it turns wrong good men and women will stand firm. It's happened before and it'll happen again. Have we grown too soft to realize that freedom has a cost? And what... this was supposed to be a thread about ammo sales??? Muab

I mean when US citizen is in some faraway place, making plans to kill other US citizens, well, you have no rights, in my book.
We worry, sometimes, a bit too much about the rights of these evil people and not so much about the rights of those that live by the law.
Like I said, 2 wimmin were shot by nutcase police officers out in LA. Who was worried about their rights? I don't worry or care about drone strikes, I worry about those that are there to "protect and serve", and their mindset.

You know me well enough t know I have no problems with killing the enemies of this country. However I do have a big problem when a president makes himself judge jury and executioner, substitute King, and set loose drones inside the US to kill a US citizen without a trial. That is what he is proposing! I guess the US citizens who may be accidental causualties should be glad we have a King that watches out for them. I have an even bigger problem when that president is a bonafide Marxist who I would not trust to tell the truth when the truth is a better fit.

From Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young.....
"Four dead in Ohio..........."
Under what Marxist did that occur?

The LAPD created a couple accidental casualties. Innocent bystanders shot due to some trigger happy cops.
I don't think the Marxist King had a thing to do with that.
