208 gr. A-max?

Re: 208 gr. A-max?

I order some through a local gun shop and they didn't know how many they could get but they came in today and I ended up with 700. If you find some, buy in bulk if you can as they don't last long and the dry spells seem to last awhile.

And that's why.

This is the sad truth. But I don't see it going away. Once we start to see a shortage, we buy more than we can use in a reasonable period. Hornady ramps up production to fulfill the perceived need. Then in 6-9 months that demand will fall off because everybody stocked up. Hornady *might* take this into account, or they could drop production dynamically, thus ensuring the next shortage.

There's nothing wrong with stocking up. But when everybody buys everything in sight right away, it plays havoc with production scheduling. If we perpetuate this phenomenon, the dry spells will get longer.
