everyone longterm buying the s**t out of ammo?
Pretty much it right there. LOTS of new gun owners, plus lots of worried existing gun owners, plus the TP effect. The PRIVATE market (NOT .mil or LE) is estimated to consume just over 8 billion rounds this year, manufacturers are working full on to produce, shortages are showing up (lead, brass, etc). And this is the worst 'run' on ammo, EVER.
