Let’s all not become too gloomy about the future. We are only months away from the Covid mess and factories that had been virtually shut down are ramping up production as fast as possible. Where there is a demand the manufacturers will find a way to supply it (it’s called capitalism). Wads? It is my understanding that anything made of plastic is in short supply, mainly from a lack of rosins from which they are made. The interruptions in supply remind me of those terrible chain reaction wrecks we occasionally see on TV—one car makes a mistake and pretty soon it’s a 50 car pileup that shuts down the entire interstate. Same with the supply chain ammo manufacturers are having to deal with. Keep the faith, it’ll all work itself out—sooner than later.
