I don't know if this will cause a shortage again or not , add your 2 cents

There is a fairly large story . Here is a short part LOL

The sheer scale of the munitions and missiles sent to Ukraine illustrates just how much matériel a war can consume.

That includes more than 104 million rounds of small-arms ammunition, at least one million rounds of 155-millimeter artillery shells, 46,000 anti-tank weapons, more than 1,600 Stinger antiaircraft missiles and 8,500 Javelin anti-armor missiles, according to a Pentagon tally.

Bob stuff is more available than a couple year’s ago but we are a long way from backto normal. What you do find is also pricey

The west (USA) is really good at assuring that tens if not hundreds of thousands will die; on both sides. The more who die the greater the profits.

22-250 is very hard to find. Can find online but it is very expensive. I cannot find the Winchester 40 pack 45 grain hollow points, these happen to be the brand my rifle and me prefer for great accuracy and quick kills.

I may purchase the dreaded 6.5 creedmore for the cheap ammunition available, cheaper than the 270 as a matter of fact.


Help yourself.

the 5.56x45 and 7.62x51 that they are sending that would compete with the American small arms market IS what you can find for sale and at some of the better prices available


the #5 shot shells that they are NOT using in Ukraine is what I have hard time finding

maybe they are sending all the 410 shells over also

243 deer ammo is on the shelves here in WI

9mm fmj is a little light on availability also but 5.56 the shelf is rather full at farm and fleet


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Ive wondered why all I can find is 6 and 4 shot, very little 5. I have seen a lot of random ammo on buds gun shop online for good prices.

Can't find .222, .204, .22-250, or any primers locally. I know you can find it online. Just not locally as in within 100 miles.

I wonder if the ammo companies just schedule x caliber to be loaded once or twice a year. I was stumbling over 22/250 last may right during the bad shortage. Higher prices of course but at least it was on the shelves. I haven't seen any since.
