This video from Mrgunsngear discusses the ongoing ammunition shortage and its potential to worsen. The speaker, Mike, identifies several contributing factors including Russian import sanctions, US aid to Ukraine impacting stockpiles and propellant use, COVID-related supply chain issues, component cost increases (specifically copper tariffs), and increased demand driven by geopolitical events and a large percentage of firearm owners possessing minimal ammunition. He advises viewers to consider increasing their ammunition stockpiles, particularly for common calibers, as prices are likely to rise and availability may decrease.
This video provides an expert analysis of current ammunition supply chain issues, explaining how tariffs, geopolitical events, and material sourcing bottlenecks are driving up costs. The speaker, Boondock Ballistician, details the impact of Section 232 tariffs on steel and copper, propellant production shifts, and the nitrocellulose supply chain. It also highlights how increased demand can spur new primer manufacturers to enter the market.
