Panic coming to an end?

<< < (3/21) > >>

justsomeguy:
Coming to an end? Anyone try to find .308 178 A-max lately?  :angry:

abbafandr:
I've noticed in the last week that every outfit (Cabelas, Bass Pro, Guns Unlimited, & Scheels) I've haunted has had primers in stock on the shelves.  Powder is a mixed bag, as are bullets.  22 ammo is still like hens teeth.  9mm is filling in with the high end self defense stuff. 
I hope the light in the tunnel isn't a train :laugh:

This step is actually really important to price stabilization. It means a couple things.

1: They are no longer buying up stock which means that manufacturers will quickly catch up with demand with a few ebbs and flows with people buying in bulk or the people that weren't willing to pay prices starting to replenish their depleted stock.
2: They are more likely to flood the market to compete with the manufacturers. Hopefully manufacturers keep up their ramped up production and the two sources of a market flood collide to drastically lower prices.

The reason you can't find those .308 vmax is because the manufacturers are still ramped up on FMJ...

Workman:
Why is .380 so freakin hard to find still?

patrickdm:
It is finally nice to see more than empty shelves.

Relatively new place in Waterloo NE had 500rd boxes of .22 for $57. Too high still but they were there.  I believe it's called Eastern NE Arms.
