Look and see what is holding up the order. If you can live without it (or find locally) tell them to ship what they have.

Almost the same here except it's Midway.  Plus it's CCI Velocitor so mine is never coming either.

ETA: Sorry I missed the 2013, mine was 2014.  It's really never coming.

FUCKIN HELL! THIS x1000! exact same thing happened to me too, ammo was on backorder for over a year.  I finally found cheaper and told em to fock off.

I would cancel but the Federal FMJ 9mm is 21.5 cents per round, and the Federal 550 packs are $18.88 per box. My inventory for shooting is well stocked, so i will wait it out.

I backordered a metric ton of 7N6 from them Dec. 2012. I received all of them around Summer 2013 - at original prices (and free shipping for the most part)

ETA: I think they got burned on that deal and I noticed that they changed policies recently, such as no more free shipping on ammo.

You can still get $19.99 on heavy ammo orders insured.

Was it the 800 round bulk cans of UMC 223?

i thought 9 months from the CMP for 20k of 22 was a long time.

Hint to people with backorders:  It ain't coming.

Other than .22, ammo is plentiful.  If yours hasn't shipped yet, it's because they just don't want to sell to you at whatever low price you agreed to pay back when you placed your order.  They want to sell to other people at higher prices.

Primers?  Dunno how it is online, but I can go buy any primer I need, in town, on the shelf, this afternoon.  If you're waiting on a backorder, chances are good that you're not going to see that come to fruition, either.

The only chance for those low-price backorders to get filled is for supply to outpace demand to the point that regular prices to drop back down to the price of your backorder.  And if that happens, then, there wasn't much point in having that backorder for the entire time, now, was there?

Yes.

 



At least Cabela's asked me if I wanted to cancel.

Now, they were down right pushy and obnoxious about it, though.




Sounds like some other companies just started canceling orders.

All mine from Sportsman's Guide (520 rounds of steel case .223, some .22, all free ship) have all been cancelled in the past couple weeks. I haven't even looked to see if they actually have it now, but I wouldn't be surprised.

I ordered five 325 round bricks of .22lr from Sportsman's Guide in March of 2013. I got 3 e-mails asking me if I wanted to keep
it on backorder as the date of delivery kept getting pushed off. Finally, last month, they cancelled the order. Thanks guys.

I got an email last week from the CMP.  I had a case of .22lr on order for the past 16 months.  They said a container just arrived  (1000 cases) but the price went up from $245 to $305 and did I still want it .  I called with a credit card number that day!  They said to expect shipping in the next two weeks.  The lady on the phone told me they had 7000 cases on back order.  6000 people are going to be unhappy.

Man I hate to seem like a jerk but... don't you guys have ammo locally yet?  Even Walmart has ammo.  I haven't seen much .22.  Granted the prices are high, so I wouldn't buy any right now because I'm well stocked as well.  But there's definitely stock near me.  Im guessing it's not the same everywhere yet?

If I could get Federal #1 Buck locally I wouldn't have just confirmed (for the third time in a couple of years) a nice inquiry from a young lady letting her know I was still interested.

They would email/ask if I still wanted the order to be shipped.
One of those deals where if you didn't respond in 10 days your order would be automatically canceled.




The default should have been to keep the order until the consumer canceled it.

They were trying to weasel their way out of orders.

Haha, he says you're fucked.  

J/k but he said he couldn't even begin to speculate on when/if you're ever going to see it.  For a lead time, if we have any, you'll want to contact Customer Service and see where in the line on backorders you're at.  He has access to lead times but not where in line you'd be.
