Yeah, I was wondering about that too. My three thoughts on it are:
1) Producing ammunition still takes resources, and we are seven years after the war with Negan. Maybe they just ran out of excess stuff to make the bullets with and only have a select amount of available ammo.
Then at least say that. But introducing Eugene manufacturing ammunition years after the beginning (without ever touching the resource issue) and then completely ignoring it is lazy writing.
3) All the ammo in the world wouldn't have made a difference against that mega-horde that Alpha showed Daryl in the last episode, so they'll have to do something different to fight them.
You'd use guns against the Whisperers themselves, not the horde. They've been concentrated enough on plenty of occasions.
