    You can thank the Department of Homeland Security for buying 1.6 billion rounds of ammo.
    Plus the recent additional 360,000 rounds.  That's what I meant by Janet Napolitano.

    Nola's comment is also correct and adds to the problem.  I went to a gun show last weekend and there were guys with signs on their backpacks, advertising their ammo at incredible high prices.

    You can thank all paranoid chain emails that install fear in the hearts of gun owners that the gov'mnt is gonna ban ammunition sales.  This caused a surge in ammunition purchasing and supply and demand was knocked out of balance, causing ammo shortages.  Fortunately for me, I keep a healthy stock of ammo for all our calibers and don't buy into chain letters, so I'm not victim of the hoarder mentality that's responsible for the low supply and high prices.
    I think the funniest part about the hoarders is that they themselves fulfilled the prophecy they espoused. Not any government.

    @smokindawg82 if you ever get done to Barrow Auto in Butler, they usually have a good supply. Was in there today adding a sweet G26 to the family and they had a fair amount. Have seen it at some of the LGS in Macon as well. Have not seen any at the big boxes. Good luck.

    I started loading my own years in several calibers and stockpiled powder and primers ..
    Me too.  Primers are getting really difficult to find, and the suppliers are saying at least 6 mos.
