Was really surprised at the ammo I'm seeing in store's a lot people talking about no 308, seen a lot of it today in 2 stores, not gun shops, maybe just under the radar.
And one of the got a shipment of ammo while I was there, someone took all they got of 223, I even had to wait for the tax stamps to be put on each box after I paid for it...

Midsouth Shooters Supply is sold out of all of its cheap ammo. So is walmart. Walmart got in 5 223 rifles today and sold them within minutes. They never made em in the display case i heard. This was in Clarksville. I think everyone is buying it all to resale at the gun shows. A guy at work went to the gun show somewhere in Nashville this past weekend and said the ar's were selling for double the walmart price and so was the ammo. He said cheapest 9mm was $30 per 50.

Academy sports in Smyrna was very low and out of a lot of ammo the other day.... But I can't find large rifle primers anywhere on the net either so .... This panic buying is gonna bring prices way up. But this time I think some of the panic buying is justifiable
