I bet some are. I've seen some of the video's from recent gun shows and the people there selling ammo have stock piles of it. Selling it for 3 to 4 times over.

Seen some of those videos too.

There is a gun show on my area this weekend. Definitely not going because of all the scalping. Fortunately my local guns stores have been keeping their prices reasonable, when in stock. However I’m not in need of ammo so I’ve been able to stay out of all this nonsense. Stocked up a long time ago.

I'm stocked on everything I need for the most part. I'm just getting stuff for the RPR 338 rifle. I have 5 lbs of H1000 and 3 lbs of RL26 for it. To load for 100 rounds for it. That's 1.3 lbs of powder. Need to get more Hornady 285 gr match bullets for it.

There are a lot of people out there that are really regretting not stocking up earlier.

I have a feeling that things hit the supreme court. The bump stock lawsuits are not holding up in court. The feds are losing.

Indeed. I’m hopeful but trying to be realistic.

I stocked up for Y2K. I'm just replacing stuff that I've been using.

I'm in fair shape, I didn't buy enough 6.8 SPC when I got the rifle and now the same with 300 BLK.

Unfortunately, I didn't do a very good job stockpiling powder & primers in the last few years, but I have done a pretty good job with ammo.

Most was reloaded in the early 2000s, and I've taken a few out to make sure things are okay.
