“Couple that with the government purchases of more than TWO BILLION rounds and you have manufacturers like Federal and Remington who cannot keep up or even come close.”

Government contracts represent less than 5% of Remington’s business per a letter from a week or so ago. Nearly all of their ammo production is going to civilians.

According to my sources the industry is producing and distributing 1 billion rounds per week. The government is small potatoes. Actually,the govenment is very small potatoes.

Great info - thanks! I'm happy to be a buyer and a user. I showed up at the range at 9:30 AM on Saturday morning. It opens at 9 AM. The wait was 2 hours. When we left at 12:30, the wait was still two hours. The stream was steady. A new shooters class was active in the other range. Mostly women.

The gun culture is alive and well!!!
