It has literally disappeared. I have checked jgsales, midway, grafs, ammunition to go, palmetto state armory, cheaper than dirt... Its all gone. I went to walmart and they only had 4 boxes. I'm very surprised its not available.

Uhh...post election stocking up. You do remember 4 years ago, right? People go for cheap and volume when they are worried about future availability.
