I'm thinking about getting a barrel for my TC Encore/Pro Hunter in .223 caliber for predator hunting and just general shooting. I must have slept through the last serious components shortage and I've never owned a .223 Rem before. How is/was the availability of this cartridge and components during the last shortage? I see that the big box stores always seemed to have certain calibers on hand and on sale regardless of the shortages. I may or may not reload for it depending on availability of loaded ammo. If I can find a decent loaded round that's readily available I may just buy a bunch of it and use it for coyotes, fox, woodchucks, etc. Any feedback?
