I have seen it much easier out there. academy doesn't always have all calibers
but 223/556 has not been hard to find. 9mm has been a little harder (at reasonable prices) and 40/45 are usually out there.
I read an article from may that said "if you buy ammo at prices once they hit where they were even pre-2013" then your crazy. the thought was with all the ammo manufacturers pumping out 24/7 prices will eventually be lower than what they were. basic supply-demand laws but I guess we will see.
just wanted to see what some of your thoughts were on the whole deal? I bought a case of 223 last week and will probably buy a case of Kent 12ga for duck season.

Don't wait too long. Buy at a reasonable price and enjoy your shooting hobby.
A clear conscience is often the sign of a fuzzy memory.

Was in the Ft. Worth Cabelas yesterday and they did not have a single box of 9mm range ammo. Plenty of 40,45,and 223

1 problem with your statement,
Supply and DEMAND. There is an unquenchable amount of demand right now. IN all honesty, and Im not fibbing.....but I recently bought a 30 or 40 mm ammo box, its about 2 ft long, 2 foot tall, and a foot or so wide; I want that SOB filled with bricks of .22lr....locked up, and hidden away. Then, Ill buy ammo to go shoot. And to compound that issue, I want to do the same for 6 other calibers.
After all that is done, then Ill work on filling up a reload cache.
YESSIR.....I....AM....AFRAID; of Liberals and big government.
