Unless you already have the equipment and supplies, those channels have dried up, too.

Then folks need to decide if reloading might be wise to pursue; watch for equipment & supplies to reappear on the shelves; and then actually DO IT! Spend some money, get what you need, and learn to reload. I hate to say it, but an awful lot of folks went through the last ammo shortage with Obama in office, saw supplies gradually return to normal, and then DID NOTHING. They didn't buy extra ammo when it was cheap, they didn't get set up to reload - and too many of them also did next to nothing to keep 'Jobama' from replacing a pro-gun president in the White House.

It's not too soon (or too late) to start doing something. Find out which businesses in your area still sell ammo at list price; I think Walmart did that, all through the Obama shortage. Get a reloading manual or go on the internet, and start learning about reloading. And don't forget to support pro-gun officials & groups - if Republican candidates &/or GOA had got a buck every time somebody complained about the NRA last year, we probably wouldn't have Schumer running the Senate...

I did as I could afford it. I thought I had enough primers. I bought 3 bricks and had another two-and-a-half that I got from my F-I-L. I started slow, and had a lot of store-bought ammo to use before reloading. I had no idea I'd be reloading as much as I do now and am kicking myself for not buying more primers and powder. I can still find tips on occasion, and have the brass, but I've run through more than I thought I would of the primers. I don't really reload much rifle. But handgun I've done several hundred. I'm still fairly new to it. I had no idea how much I could go through when I got into a rhythm.
