Where are folks finding ammo these days? I can’t seem to find any at Cabelas or Bass Pro. Do the smaller gun shops have ammo? Live in the Raleigh / Durham area and haven’t been able to find anything in 308, 6.5, etc.
I’m assuming everyone has the same problem!Good luck

Great call out. Won’t happen again once I can find it!This is why it's essential to keep stock. I bought a 16 gauge this year and have played hell finding a good amount of ammo for it.
Good luck on your search

I’m lucky that I travel all over for work. I get it wherever I find it.
I’ve found it at the big box stores
(Walmart, Academy, BPS, Cabelas, etc), hole in the wall Mom and Pop stores, local hardware stores, gun shows, etc.
Anytime I can stop anywhere that might have ammo, reloading components, or what have you, I stop.
Picked up my latest score at a gas station in Missouri. They had about 40 boxes of in assorted cartridges. I bought all they had that me or anyone I know had a rifle for. Was surprised to find 5 boxes of Federal Blue Box 150 gr .30/30 for $19 a box.
You never know where you might find ammo.
I’ve found some here and there, and I’ve seen the $$$$ stuff, I’ve yet to spend more than $20a box on any of it.That 30-30 is a good score. I haven't found any.
Except the $90/box Commemorative stuff.
Academy sports gets their shipments Monday morning (and Fridays??) last shipment, last week, they had not received ammo but thats where we've been getting it from. ammoseek.com is also reallllly good for finding ammo online. It updates with new ammo constantly but they go real fast so you better have your payment ready lolWhere are folks finding ammo these days? I can’t seem to find any at Cabelas or Bass Pro.

My buddies used to always ask Why I bought 2 boxes of rifle cartridges for all of my hunting rifles every year, whether I fired a shot or not. Guess who is sitting on plenty of ammo that was purchased relatively inexpensively! I did the same with all my firearms, including my hand guns. You don't wait for civil disobedience, riots or worse, and expect to find ammo or for that matter firearms at decent prices.
^ A good illustration of how "price gouging" slows hoarding, helps keep things in stock, and lets folks determine just how badly they 'need' the product.I was actually surprised at how much ammo they did have in stock but again its because they raised the price. The big box stores have all been pretty much cleared out. I personally havent seen the big box stores raise their prices on ammo which is probably why they were cleared out first.
