 How is it there is lot's of ammo available on the site albiet higher price obviously.     If there is this huge shortage how are they getting it or they just had huge stockpiles to sell off?

There isn't a "shortage", ammo demand is just currently outstripping production. Costs have risen due to short term scarcity along with current component costs. You're also partially correct in that some folks/businesses do have large stockpiles to sell off.

Ammoseek is a search engine...they don't have anything in stock.  If you look at it enough you'll see that anything that shows up a decent prices (by today's standards) is often OOS before you can get it into your cart.  The stuff for $2.00/rd will still be there tomorrow (unless it's a specialty round).

Ammo seek is an online search engine....... they don't have any ammunition.......  They just list prices they find on line.

Prices for ammo were much cheaper before everyone and their brother who didnt know shit about guns began blabbing on the interwebs to go to ammoseek.

I blame them.

So you think if we sent everyone to gunbot.net things would be better?

I miss the days of that 3rd party chrome add on that you could use to find in stock ammo. Set alerts & such.....  That was the sandy hook panic.

Look up the definition of "shortage".
