Huntbear, that would be a logical thing to do. However the proponents of such ammunition accountability have no intention to do so.

This is their proposed sample legislation.

2. No later than January 1, 2011, all non-coded ammunition for the calibers listed in this
chapter, whether owned by private citizens or retail outlets, must be disposed.

This started when we started kicking Taliban and Iraqi butt!  It has not subsided, and only gotten worse with the current president.  Do not expect it to subside, and I would/am buying anything I may need even if I don't have a current need.  Yes I am the problem and glad to be.

Thanks Ray I was going to explain some of that.  Here is a link to some of the other problems at Sportsmans.

Dec, Jan, and Feb are traditionally a low demand period for reloading suplies (I used to own a gun shop) and abig box chain isn't going to stock large quantities of slow moving reloading supplies when the money would be used to stock fishing, camping and water sports equip. for the up coming seasons.

Thanks for posting, One of the managers at Lacey sportsmans told me they were bought out by a Canadian company.
