Most people the libs would worry about have plenty of ammo.
I posted this in another thread, I have a cousin who works for Olin Corp that owns Winchester. She was on a conference call with the VP of ammo production for Winchester and asked when they would be caught up. Mid 2022 was the response. 3 months ago it was mid 2021 when they asked. Your buddy is wishful thinking if he thinks it will be anytime soon.Sorry, not going to read an article to try and interpret your answer. Which way?
And the more guns purchased, the longer it will be. This is just the beginning.I posted this in another thread, I have a cousin who works for Olin Corp that owns Winchester.

Not much more they can do at this point. They're already running 24/7 and adding new production lines isn't going to happen anytime soon. It would take over a year to make that happen, having to custom order machines, floor space, training people up. They were laying people off during Trump's term, they know these boom times aren't going to last. All I was passing along was information straight from the horse's mouth. If you don't believe it, that's cool, doesn't affect me. I just think it's going to be a long time before everything stabilizes. I've seen more new shooters buying guns now than ever, even without having ammo for their new handgun or rifle. That just keeps pushing the bell curve further and further away.Never said anytime soon. Hopefully late 2021, good chance it drags into 2022. A lot depends on ramping up production to multiple shifts, adding machinery, and supplies chains to support.
If there is $$ to be made, amazing how business' can outperform projections.
Short of calling Hornady, is there anyway to find out their production schedule? Trying to find out when they’ll make the next batch of 6.5 CM precision hunter
I feel your pain, but I cannot help reading this as anything but a meme...
Get on the horn - 99.9999999% of us know less than you about it.

Good luck finding ammo guys. I never really did get into the hoarder mindset about things. I know guys putting themselves and their families in financial peril because of a fear they have that they might miss out on something, at some point in time. Kind of sad to watch.
Hmmmm. UPS policy states no additional fees for "Cartridges, small arms."
After paying shipping he's better off buying local from someone on Armslist or something. Because ammo can't go USPS, you're over a barrel with shipping. I was going to ship 25 rounds of .22-250 ammo to a guy and it was just shy of $18 for a 1.6lb box. Shipped 38lbs of ammo yesterday and it cost $89.
Same hereShotgun shells are back on shelves in Cabelas and Scheels here.
What ammo are you looking for? In the last 60 days I've been able to purchase all of the 7mm-08, .300WM and 6.5C ammo I wanted. Yes it has taken a little time searching and setting up alerts on ammoseek.com. Yes I did pay more than I would have a year ago but I did not pay gunbroker or armslist prices. Yesterday I was in my local Walmart and saw 17hmr and Federal Fusion .308 on the shelves.Yep. It’s the wrong time to be discovering hunting for sure. Can’t even get a box of ammo to go zero a new rifle and haven’t been stockpiling for years
