    If you haven't notice, there shortages in LOTS of stuff we used to take for granted. Not only baby formula but all kinds of stuff

    Glass & plastics for container bottles
    Raw brass for everything - mostly war effort and new ammo for new gun buyers
    Chemicals for everything - Cl tabs for my pool used to be $65/85 tabs. Now (if you can even find them) they are $200/65 tabs! Same with pool shock.
    Baby formula
    Paint........of ALL kinds
    Gasoline in some areas
    Gun powder - again war effort and chemicals
    Many food items

    ........"and the beat goes on".......... (Sonny & Cher)

    It is more than just global warming (the dems scape goat for everything now) and the supply chain. We were not geared up for many of these things and as needs shifted, supplies become more expensive and scarce.

    Hope an all-REP Congress starting 2023 can help, but I seriously doubt it!

    Dark times are still ahead.

    Add magnesium (needed for many aluminum alloys) to that list.

    RECYCLE your scrap brass and all your aluminum cans!

    You can't even find a lot of beer in cans - only bottles.

    I say primers for 130-160 per brick for metallic cartridge and 209mag for 100. Yikes..not getting better. And here when I say primers go to 90-100 last year I thought that was bad.

    you never know what the future will be so if you want to shoot its usually a good idea to get what you can when you can. the only thing shooting related that I ever bought that has gone down in value was a ruger sr556, I just had to have one after all the glowing reviews came out when they were first introduced. with all these fools with guns killing people shooting up public places you never know what might happen.

    Reminds me of the obama days, the Clinton days and so on. Stock up when it's not.
