Drove up to the Cabela's in Tulalip this morning to kill some time. Bunch of guys hovering around empty ammo shelves, waiting on the employees to bring out their 5-box ration

Wait a while, you'll trade all your ammo for some TP or a can of beans.

But hey, it adds the joy and anticipation of waiting to see if your ammo is stolen, lost, delivered to the wrong address or scattered around town one round at a time...

Lol...my fort is full but I can go to Bass pro here in town on most Fridays mid morning when they stock shelves and get winchester 150 rnd boxes for $75 with a 5 box limit. Well maybe not every Fri but I did for 3 or 4 wks straight. I can't even find it online at that price. 50cpr is gravy in this market.

I took my son in law to a range to try out his first handgun and their range ammo was $40/box 9mm

My local Cabela's had some 12 gauge yesterday but not much else.

One box of 300WSM, one box of 338 Lapua, that was basically it, they had reduced the size of the ammo section considerably. Guns were pretty much gone too, aside from revolvers and 1911s.

I’m not buying but Cabelas has ammo regularly but not for long. 9mm is $14 + and people were scooping it up. 10 mm $22 and no one was buying.

Cabelas on sale prices with 5% points and no shipping was not a bad place to shop in the salad days.

Being able to buy 1-5 boxes sure beats not having any available to buy.

The only "problem" in my mind is that things are so fucked rationing is necessary in the first place

Chain stores are slow to adjust prices to a changing market. Used to be online was cheaper. Chain store prices stayed the same while online prices have risen to insane levels.

So now those “expensive” chain stores  have become the best place to get ammo at “normal” prices

Near me its 2.5 : 1 trade ratio for 5.56.

I just traded someone a partial box of Federal Black Pack .223 (100 rounds) for 250 rounds of Magtech 9MM.

LGS near me.

1 box/ caliber/ week

5 is nice, and some places consider 5.56 and .223 different calibers. Or if the cashier likes you.

I haven't seen a box of 556 ball in a store in going on 6 months.

The Cabelas in Delaware recently went to a 1 box per caliber per person per day and line went from back of store to front, same for cash register 20 minutes after they opened . Have a similar sign for reloading components.  They block the ammo aisle off and let one person walk thru at a time. They also had a cashier pointing out to the other ones the people she had seen come thru earlier.

They had some American Eagle but with them only being 20 rounds per box I didn't think it was worth it since there's a limit.

My cabelas has had nothing for months. Gotta actually have ammo in stock to ration it. Starting to think they are not stocking ammo in urban areas intentionally. Seems like more rural stores still get some restock.

Yep, all 10 boxes of each and you only have to drive an hour and a half to hopefully get a box making it really cost double when you figure in all costs.

I bought 9mm at Cabelas after Christmas for $13.99 a box Federal.  Blazer Brass was $14.99 a box.   This past week picked up 3 Bricks of Blazer 22 at Walmart with 3 box limit.  There was about 2 dozen in case so some ammo is still getting to stores and much cheaper than online if you can find it.
