Decent AP roundup on ammo shortage, still on the Indystar site. Wish I knew how to make this a link, but don't.

Read, weep, though the ammo availability/price thread here tells the same story.

If AP posted the story it most definitely is old, second hand news, slanted in the truth, and abbreviated so any 6 year old would comprehend it. The fact that you watch the ammo/price threads prove you have known for years that ammo was getting shorter and higher.

It may be old to you, and AP is part of the mainstream media many of us distrust, but they sometimes do things very well indeed.
This piece, for example, is a simple compilation of facts -- rounds required by the military, expansion of production at Lake City and the straightforward statements of senior police officers lamenting the difficulty of obtaining sufficient training ammo.
The article was never intended as a heads-up to people who track this situation closely.
