I ordered some 22lr a couple days ago, and it hasn't shipped yet. Saying 2-4 days until shipping. This isn't like them at all!

We just picked up another 2000 rounds of 22. Just ordered a couple hundred rounds of our 308 win and 6.5 creedmor hunting rounds.

All 5.56 OOS now!!

No, there’s still plenty available on palmetto

 

[Sf Becket]

Got about 4k of what I use maybe I should go for 5

This is what Target Sports is showing at the moment in stock for 5.55 Nato. They showed 318 cases left. That'll be gone by dinner.

They had some "cheaper" 223 too

100%

This is the beginning, everyone will panic in the next 2-3 weeks. By mid-November people will be saying: I wish I bought mid October.

Reminds me when I finally gave up and bought primers for $70/K two years ago. Everyone thought I was crazy. LOL ... 2 years later and most are still charging over $70/K.

Taking into account inflation, prices have technically gone "down" then. But really, that's some next level skinflinting, even for me, to stress over costs that measured in tenths of a cent.


As for me.... "investing".....

What is this all about really? Why are people panic buying right now?

People feeling we're very close to WW3

So, what’s my XM193 worth now?

 

[Lowbird]

Another site I use bumped the price of the 150 value packs $13 overnight. Still says they have em.

Willing to do favors for ammo

 

[DJBrad]

9mm is flying off the shelves…By the time I updated my credit card info out of stock!!!

Where was this? 9mm is still available everywhere at .23-.26 cpr.

 

[M1911]

If you haven’t already learned to keep a couple cases of ammo on hand, I guess you’ve been asleep for the past 10 years or so.

It was target sports. It was the 115gr Blaser Brass

I see they still have the 124gr. Tho

I like the S&B alot

Well, I didn't buy a new gun this weekend...

 

[Broc]

Its important to always stay one step ahead. 223 selling out? Buy 762 and 9mm. 9mm and 45 selling out? Start buying 10mm

But only real men shoot 6.5cm, so that won't sell out.

Weak people stay with thir 300-500 meter calibers (except for .45, that fat sh*t jams and barely makes it to 50 yards), while the operators party with 6.5cm and 7.62x39 (good for Polar bear up to 723.25 yards).

I just searched Targetsports, 5.56, 9mm, 12g and 22lr all in stock. I dont understand the panic part aside from stuff costs more than it used to?

 

[free]

Just went to target sports to order a bit of ammo. Put 2000 rounds of 9 in my cart, and while I was adding the 45, the generic 9 ran out of stock before I could hit "buy".

Apparently, people are panicking over the war in Israel, gun control pushes by the left, and the rest of it.

Shows how important it is to be prepared.

Oh, ok. If you say so. LOL

When did this happen? I received an order from them just a couple weeks ago.

Maybe he’s making a joke about the actual TSA. Afaic Target Sports has no “A” at all.

Yup. I placed an order with Target Sports earlier today.

I don't think that's been cheap in forever. Getting into 5.45 territory almost
