I’ve read that there is enough ammo in the pipeline that this won’t amount to much, except for the panic buying, for some time. Let’s hope the other nations that export ammo pick up some of the slack. Wolf has manufacturing outside of Russia. I think Tula, Barnaul, and Red Army Standard, which is Century Arms’ branded Russian ammo are the ones hardest hit.
With Remmington back in production, I don’t think this will crimp supplies much.... but I admittedly don’t know the actual numbers.
Supplies have improved vastly, prices still haven’t dropped enough, but compared to 6 months ago, I am having no issue finding rounds, whereas back in Feb/March, next impossible to find much on the shelves.
Wolf had a factory in Ukraine, but it was destroyed. This is going to have large, long term impact on the 7.62x39 and 5.45x39 market, where Russia steel ammo accounted for something like 80% of the market. Much less so on 223/9mm etc..
