Agsalaska, i do not see you, or your type as THE problem. the problem lies in those who do one of two things. they either buy up literally as much ammo as they can get their hands on, to stash away, even though it may take decades to go thru it all. OR, the person who buys as much ammo as they can get their hands on, to run over to places like gunbroker, and sell it at extremely inflated prices. the second type are NOT doing this industry, and any of us favors. because they are extending the problem only to fill their wallet. the only good thing that might come out of the second type of problem generator, is that they could get stuck with a huge stash of goods, that they will loose money on. but that will not be in the immediate future. i have never had a problem with a guy making an honest buck. but to hoard ammo to triple the price, is only hurting the industry as a whole. it will discourage new shooters, and disgust ones who have been in it a while. they are ALMOST as bad as the anti-gun clan in my opinion.
