.410 shells anywhere? - 10/19/20 01:52 PM

Took my 9 year old out chasin tree rats the other day with my old .410/22 over under. Had a great time and he went thru several rounds. With only half a box of shells left i figured i should order up another box or two. Wow! Do they not make .410 hunting loads anymore? Hard to believe folks have bought them all up?

I called half the state of Maine and nobody had any. I have a couple boxes left but I'll be sure to pick up some more next time they are available.

Yes, I am down to probably a case or case and a half left. Hard to find and expensive when you do.

massive ammunition shortage with everyone buying every box they can get ahold of

good thing you only want 410 and not 9mm.

no kidding at the gun show a few weeks ago 20 rounds of bulk fmj 9mm in a sandwich baggie for 18 dollars

I was chatting with a retired cop friend , told him the new dime bag was 10 rounds 9mm in a baggie for 10 bucks

it started with anything you could consider self defense and now it is just about everything that is sparse or gone from the shelves

go figure when American cities start burning and the police tell people your on your own no one has enough ammunition or guns both selling faster than ever before. setting new records for most guns sold every month.

The high price and limited loads and availability is why I have never bought one. Everything is scarce now so ammo companies will be concentrating capacity to the high demand items.

Always buy it when its available and cheap and stack it deep. Prices always rise so you will save money in the long run. Plus your never short, if things get tight you can sell it for a hansom profit to those that didn't prepare.

They had stacks of .410 & .223, and even some 9mm FMJ at Scheels Saturday in Iowa City about $1-2 a box more than a year ago. Won't help you guys on the right coast much. I didn't buy any, maybe I should have but I'm hoping this will pass eventually like the .22's did. Shelves will start filling soon as Trump wins in November.

Hard to understand what is going on. Ammo shortages everywhere except Chicago.......which remains an active shooting gallery. You would think they would eventually run out too.

Found 6.5 Grendel brass for $35/50 at Scheel's, which is almost unheard of right now. Wish we had a store close by so I didn't have to order online.

i checked the numbers today to see if the ammo shortage had started impacting them yet.

it apparently had not 50 shot in the last 14 days

I wonder how much ammo they have on hand ?
