    Things must be really bad when MIdway runs out of smokeless powder!!!!......unless it went to that ammo manufacture in Wisconsin for Ukrainian bullets!

    All of the legitimate online suppliers have been in and out of powder for the 18 months.

    It does seem a bit peculiar, they’ve always had something listed and then about 3 or 4 days ago it went to nothing.

    FYI,

    An important message from MidwayUSA

    Dear Valued Customer,
    Thanks to you, we’ve experienced tremendous growth over the years. A while back, we started the largest project in company history. We’re in the final stages of moving our Distribution Center (DC) about 5-miles down the road to a DC, just west of Columbia, MO.

    Our new DC is 400,000 square feet, with plenty of room for expansion. The unique new NITRO Express® Shipping System we’re installing consists of brand-new state-of-the-art equipment. This new system will be faster, more accurate, and more efficient than our previous system.

    The conveyor and product storage/retrieval speed will allow us to receive and ship products faster, meaning we’ll get products in stock quicker and your orders will arrive sooner. Increased accuracy comes from precisely picking every order and verifying the correct weight with a high-tech scale to ensure no mistakes were made. Increased efficiency comes from custom building precisely sized cartons for each order, reducing the average box size by over 30%, meaning there is less room for products to shift in transit and become damaged. The remaining area (void) in the cartons is filled with one of three different types of materials, depending on the characteristics of each order, resulting in intact deliveries. We’re building the best package possible – extremely accurate, efficient, and durable!

    Our inventory transition is going well, but will take a little longer than projected. Since we’re shipping from two DCs, and we have inventory in both places, if your order contains more than one product, you may receive it in two different packages at different times. If you receive part of your order, rest assured, the rest of your order is on the way from our other DC. While we transition, your order may take a few days longer than normal and we’re sorry for any inconvenience this causes.

    I hope you enjoy our new NITRO Express® Shipping System. Thanks for being a valued MidwayUSA Customer!
