Yesterday on my way out of the Chicago metro area I stopped at a large and popular gun store (GAT, just north of Elgin, IL) that I have occasion to visit periodically. The last time I was there, several weeks ago, they had most types ammo available, at about normal pre-shortage prices, but limited sales to one box of each caliber, and 250 rounds of 22LR. Yesterday there were no limits on how much you could buy, other than being limited to one box of 500 (or 525) of 22LR. The shelves were well stocked with every caliber of handgun ammo that I could think of, so I bought what I wanted and went on my way. Maybe not everywhere, but it appears that the worst of the shortages must be over if this store can get in enough handgun ammo to not have to place restrictions on quantity and yet able to keep the shelves pretty full. My guess is that by my next visit I will be able to buy as much 22LR as I want. So for me, stocking up is no longer an issue with about 2,000 rounds of other than 22LR and another 2,000 rounds of 22LR, about all I can stuff into my small ammo safe.
