I was in Sportco today, the small bore section was completely empty with the exception of 5 boxes of .17.

I remember a few years ago a panic on primers was started because of expiration dates on some boxes.  Do you really think the primer will not work after a couple of years?  It was hard to find any primers then.  The gun business seems to be partial to panics.

Sportco has no pistol ammo per say, but thy do have primers and powder now. CCi primers. They are doling them out at 200 per person, per style so people dont buy it all up. Prices are good too!

Since sportco is a distrubtor, hopefully things are turning around.

Its not like it was a bread line or a toilet paper line. They had 4 boxes of 1000 primers in large mag rifle total. Most went to other retailers so they could spread it about. I also dont think the guys behind the gun counter are any kind of...oh never mind. Thanks for the welcome o paranoid one. Lol  ;)

I now have 200 more rounds of 300wsm to show for it.

i was at the hardware store in town over the weekend and they had all kinds of ammo. think out of the box and maybe people could find some ammo...they had all kinds of auto pistol ammo, rifle ammo, etc. the only thing they didn't have that i would want was .22lr...but they normally don't have that. keep in mind this is a little hardware store with a little cabinet stuck in the back that they sell a little bit of ammo out of. they are not a sporting goods store by any stretch.
