I had heard that the USA finally expended the last of the WWII munitions lying around during the "shock and awe" in Iraq.
Perhaps this is apocryphal.
I finally ran through the last of the .45 ACP I got in an ammo "inheritance" from my father (he just handed me a crate). Most of it was 60's vintage. Some of it was rather smoky but otherwise it ran just fine. There's a bunch of .38 Special LWC in there that I have shot through as well. I think I've hit 2 duds so far.
I still have a few hundred rounds of .22 LR from that batch that runs just as well as newer stuff.
