Isnt it true that our current administration drove the cost of ammunition to sky rocket?

I don't think so. When Obama was elected, there was a lot of panic buying of firearms, parts and ammo, availability went down and prices went up. It's tapered off a little. Ammo has actually been dropping a little over the last few months. Not back to 2007 prices, but many are glad they prices didn't just keep going up. Felipe Calderon's yammering notwithstanding, Obama has been relatively silent on gun or ammo control measures and that has stabilized the pricing somewhat, I suspect.

Thats what I heard, and I also heard that the conflicts overseas and law enforcement had priority for ammo than the consumer, and manufactures couldnt keep up with the demand forcing prices to rise. I guess we'll never know.
