Froogal, I don't think anyone here is laughing at you. The folks here who have their stashes all recognize competition shooting will take a hit due to the lack of ammo availability, as well as the ongoing issues with Covid. And it isn't just primers that are in short supply. There was a major outburst of "flinter's laughter" here at my house when I had a half-dozen people call or stop by to "borrow" percussion caps for deer season. Seems no one had any in stock. A couple mentioned they'd have a flinter next year--but flints are sold out all over too! Me, I'm going be down on the Platte with a rock this summer, knapping out flints like I did in high school.
For the foreseeable future, it looks like ammo and components are going to be "available" on a catch-as-catch-can basis. Its been like that before, more often for particular calibers or cartridges than across the board, but this isn't the first time. I think this is going to change the habits of some folks, we'll have to see if that is good or bad.
I suspect availability of ammo/components is going to become more of a consideration for folks. Maybe some people will start to realize that matched revolver/carbine chamberings was done for a reason, way back when. I'm watching for a Rossi in .357 or .44, because I have access to ammo for them. A Model P in either cartridge makes more sense now than the .32-20 I have.
Judging by what I've been seeing on ebay, it looks like bullet casting may make a major jump in popularity. We'll see if that lasts. Looks like the popularity of handloading is going to jump as well. So we'll see. . . .
