It just seems like yesterday that we went through the same thing. Then everyone was blaming DHS for ordering 40Trillion rounds of whatever. Now I think it is just 6 or 7 million new gun owners showing up. I think that maybe the manufacturers are playing it close to the vest because of the election situation and now that the results are in they are playing it even closer.
It is my understanding that there are no more lead smelters in the US as lead was moved into a danger scale on the level of plutonium. I am not all that sorry for the folks who are out of supplies. The lesson should only happen once to stick and if you ignored the lesson well.......There was plenty of opportunity to stock up on primers, powder and ammunition.

There used to be serious surplus ammunition hoarders. I remember reading about the 1st Cav capturing the regimental cache of an NVA unit west of Plei Me in 1965. It was 68,000 rounds of small arms ammunition. There were guys with a platoon worth of M1icon rifles that had more than that in their garage. Probably not many more like that today.
