I wish I were as optimistic as you.I really don't want to sound like I'm blaming these companies for the lack of components and ammo. I believe that they're steadily cranking stuff out and that they're not stockpiling, or selling it all the government.
Ammo manufacturers have come right out and said they will not add capacity, will not invest in infrastructure and hire employees because they believe this won’t last.
They have also figured out that manufacturing less ammo, and charging more is an easier way to hedge their bets, and profit off of FOMO hoarding.
I look at the Nosler site daily, the loaded ammo E-tip Page literally has 8x57 Mauser ammo available, and nothing else. Ditto at sporting good stores.
I hear and see ads for Nosler Ammo, not sure why they’re spending money on advertising something that doesn’t exist.
