Southwestern Illinois. Stopped at the Walmart this morning. Wasn't looking for ammo, but they had four hundred packs of my favorite shotgun ammo, Federal red box. Two 20, two 12. I don't know why, but I always seem to get the best hits with this. Bought all four. That's all they had, unless you wanted 28 gauge or steel.

I was at the local academy yesterday. Cleaned the fuck out. Some 224, a little 308, and some 45/70 subsonic. Shotgun ammo was black cloud only. Guns was Yildiz and a couple bolt guns. Very thin on pistols.

Cool site resources, bro

Surely you didn't let that .308 stay on the shelf.

I have no .308 and I'm not interested in playing the gunbroker flip game

Buy the ammo then you will be motivated to buy a gun for the new ammo you have ??

Local Academy had plenty of ammo (9mm, 45a, 556, 7.62AK, 7.62 Nato).   Short line.   But the ammo is kept behind the customer service desk and they are rationing.  3 boxes per customer, per day.  I saw them turn away 2 guys for coming back through the line.

I'm not trying to be the guy who walks up with a couple boxes of .270 and says, "you got a gun that shoots this"

Did buy a little, but not all.
AlthoughI DID grab the last 3 Win 333 pks, clerk made me! Said he wanted it gone before Necbeard the Ammo Pirate got there

I was hearing that happened when we did the first panic back in March or April.

At Academy's here in ATX, line wraps around the building at 8 AM for ammo when they have a truck. All gone within an hour. Selection is hit or miss. One day they got hundreds of boxes of 9 and little else, another day they got hundreds of 50 count 22 LR and a few 45 and 308. BB's almost impossible to find, I only notice them when scrounging for pellets for my 22 high power pellet gun, which is our last ditch survival rifle. Hollow point 22 pellet will take down a squirrel or rabbit w/ no prob, but those are hard to find too.

Getting bad out there folks.  Went to a big LGS today just to see.  They had exactly ONE pound of shotgun powder.  Went over to Academy down the road.

Never seen anything like this before.  Those that didn’t stock up are fucked.

Yet, in the still free state of Florida, the WalMarts still have long guns and ammo, with an abundance of BB guns.

Where are you in FL?  The WalMarts on the panhandle still carry ammo, as well as the one's near Tampa?  That does not mean they are fully stocked, but they try to keep it in stock.
Though one near Tampa said they were no longer ordering handgun ammo, just rifle and shotgun.
