I just got an email from natchez shooters supply stating they now had 223 ammo in. I just thought I would post the info. They are selling it for $324 for 500 rounds. They also have 308 ammo in stock too. I think the link is this- natchezss.com . I hope it works. If it doesn't then I am sorry you will have to type it in.

Hi everyone, I just tried to go on their website and it stated it was unavailable. I went back to their email and wrote down the item number and their phone number. Here is the description - Federal Independence 55 gr FMJ 500 rounds. Item number FAXM1931C and their phone number is 1-800-251-7839. I hope this helps.

DANG got 500 rounds of brass from Midway for $236 shipped. Whish they would let you order more than 500 rounds at a time.
I went to place my order (I'm in Georgia) and it would not take it!

Dunns sporting goods has 62 grain federal 420 pack for $299 plus shipping. Price is too high for me but thought I would let you all know.
It looks like the ammo is slowly coming back.

$324 for 500 rounds? Almost .65 cents a round! Really? Yet another establishment I will never do business with due to their price gouging in the midst of a panic.
Nice business model these Companies seem to have recently adopted. I now know of several that will never, ever see a cent from me, even it they go back to normal or even reduced pricing.
Take note of which companies are doing this, I know I do.

I understand your frustration and share some of it, and fully respect your right to vote with your wallet.
But honest question: what's wrong with free market capitalist enterprise, and the law of supply and demand?
Gouging has a specific legal threshold and it applies to basic necessities in times of crisis: food, water and fuel, to name a few. It doesn't apply to other goods, like ammo (however basic and necessary it may be to us).
Businesses have every right to probe and see what the market will bear without being branded "gougers".
Increased prices help to cool panics and keep some supply on the market.
Retailers are also links in chains and sometimes are getting jerked around by dealers, wholesalers and manufacturers and have to choose between paying more to have any supply at all but risking losing customers to increased prices, or elect not to pay more and have no product on the shelves to sell, thus losing customers.
They're also staring down the barrel of lean times as the supply eventually dries up; the extra money they charge now allows them to stay in business for the many months there will be no in-demand items to sell until manufacturers can resupply.
Just another way of looking at it...
$0.65/round could become the new average for all we know. I hope not but a few years ago we weren't paying over $3/gal for gas either. So only time will tell what the market is going to do. Pending any action from POTUS.

Prices will fluctuate depending on demand and when the panic subsides so will the price.On a positive note I just gassed up the truck for $2.55/gallon.
I was looking around the internet and found some more 223 ammo at Target Sports USA | Discount Ammunition Online | Ammo For Sale | Free Shipping Ammunition. They have Federal American Eagle 223 50 gr Tipped varmit ammo for $14.99 ea. They have a 5 box limit tho. Item number TSAE223GTV. they are also showing 30 rnd promag ar15 mags for 19.99 also. They are posting 20-22 day processing time and 3-4 weeks delivery time. I don't know maybe this is how things are going to be from now on when you mail order until things calm down. Its insane. At least we are seeing some product finally be available, so maybe thats a good sign. I hope so.
With the ammo manufacturers being done with the holidays, factories running full capacity we will see prices come back down. Over the last year we have seen manufacturers and suppliers have an increasing amount of ammo in storage. This latest crazyness has dried that up. Last summer some of the plants were talking about shutting down some production lines because of all the extra ammo on hand. It will take a little while but the prices will come back down. I have seen this a few times over the last 40 some odd years of shooting, so at the moment my reloading for $.21 a round is not looking very bad. 
(remember glass half full)

Must be nice. I'm paying $3.95 a gallon of diesel in Maryland. The panic must not have subsided here
I suspect diesel is very profitable ;-) Is it just me or did diesel prices go nuts at about the same time the big 3 were convincing new truck buyers to cough up an extra 3-4k for those engines because they got better mileage?
$3.79 for diesel here in SC but my VW is getting around 40mpg
