I could be way off, but I think Ruger being mostly the .22 king, the ammo shortage may have something to do with soft sales.

In Ruger's quarterly statement, issued yesterday, they blamed lack of .22 and other rimfire ammo for their low sales. They also said they failed to offer discounts like the other gun manufacturers.
