Is the Great Ammunition Shortage of 2013 finally coming to an end?

Asked by majorrich (14741points) June 3rd, 2013

Starting in January of 2013, sporting goods stores have experienced a panic sale of just about every kind and sort of firearm and even more ammunition to the point that it is nearly impossible to purchase even .22 bullets. Some have quipped that O’Bama is the firearms salesman of the decade! I have recently seen some ammunition left on my Wal Mart’s shelves when I have been in there. Of course not in the calibers I could use, but bullets none the less. I reload my own ammunition and have been unable to get components for months. It’s taken six months, has the industry finally made some headway to catching up with demand? Will we be able to begin practice once again?
