Ammo can be made cheaply, especially common shit like 9mm, 45. They even sell very accurate modern molds for these calibers where you can produce 100s per hour with a basic $200 crucible and a bucket of water. That only leaves the shells, which of course you would have to stock up on. But the going rate right now is about $25 per 1000 for those calibers so stock up.
Gun powder can also be made, its a bit harder to do, but you can definitely do it they have youtube vods on how to do it. Of course it will not be the quality of modern smokeless shit, but it will be good enough to kill.
The rifle shit is harder because its supersonic and non coated or non FMJ shit will just shatter or deform in the barrel or usually shortly thereafter. So for shit like .223 and other rifle calibers I suggest to just stock up, even on the bullets themselves, and you can then load them when your initial stockpile of ammo runs out.
But you have calibers like 300 BLK which you can mold because they are subsonic, or at least they can be. And the shells can be made from standard .223 shells with a proper loading die set. ($50) This is why 300 BLK would be such a good caliber for zombie attack. You can make your own ammo easy.
Where can you get the lead you ask? Well people have been doing this shit for eons so even ebay sells bullion of lead for just this purpose, or you can go to any range and savage your own. You can then melt and purify the lead in a cast iron skillet or pot over fire. Even shit like the keels on sail boats have tons of this shit, autos have lead as wheel counterweights... its around you just have to know where its at.
Oh primers, yeah those primers... Well I have not really researched this too much to see if they can be made, but just stock up on them, there is only a few kinds, small pistol, large pistol, small rifler and large rifle. They usually come in a box of 1K and go for about $35ish?
