We may get there yet. Manufacturers have increased production by about 25%. The biggest, Vista (CCI/Federal) expects there new CCI plant in Lewiston, ID to come on line in a couple of months.
“there” should be “their”
I bought Federal Champion in bulk packs, (325 round) on sale, with a coupon and free shipping, from Cabelas for under 3 cents a round in 2012. It was not that long ago.
I have found the Federal Champion to be a good value, reliable and pretty accurate for a bulk pack.
It is now on the net, in 50 rd boxes, for 5 cents a round.
Good news. I had not heard of any new plants being build. It’s a big investment to make if the shortages in recent years are only caused by people hoarding ammo.
NRA has to get together with Trump & reopen the lead processing plant in Missouri that Obama closed. It was the last one in the USA.
