Anyone care to recommend a dependable online source for good quality 5.56 ammo. I could use another 2K rounds.
These guys ship the same day if ordered early. I have purchased 3 or 4 times from them. Excellent service:

Yep. Seems that many who didn’t already fire much for sport or duty (e.g., combat training service) are going crazy.

From the article:
“We’ve also learned that the Department has an open bid for a stockpile of rifle ammo. Listed on the federal business opportunities network, they’re looking for up to 175 million rounds of .223 caliber ammo to be exact. The .223 is almost exactly the same round used by NATO forces, the 5.56 x 45mm.”
Might try this one for ammo, if they have anything that you like.

As for the “crazy,” it’ll blow over. I remember the Sayco (or Saico or whatever) yo-yo craze way back when.
Ammunition search engine.
I prefer handloads for old technology firearms and haven’t used it (old, like myself). Looks useful, though.
