Re: No ammo.....?
Sorry if I am overstepping here...just wanted to throw up a link, I am absolutely not affiliated. They do have ammo still at decent prices and shipping. Just tryin to help.

 Quoting: Mandi/K


They are out of stock on almost everything....

And just like everybody else they want 1.00 per round for 5.56.


Cheaper than dirt wants 1.25 per round.

If you are trying to buy ammo and guns now you are doing it wrong.

If you are trying to buy powder and primers now you are doing it wrong as well.

I feel bad for those spending 800% more for things...rifles and ammo, but damn.

Nobody wants things when they are cheap. If the ban never goes through, people holding 2500.00 DPMS rifles that were worth 650.00 a week before are going to feel stupid.

And paying 1 dollar per round of 5.56 is insane.
 Quoting: FatalW1shes


Yeah, and I bought when everything was cheap, but with the dollar becoming worthless soon, it's better to buy what you can at any price and hang on to it...
 Quoting: BRIEF


Your last comment here speaks volumes!! Been trying to tell folks this for years now. Buy and hold, you'll eventually use it if you don't need it as a prep. Stock what you use or can guarantee barter with.
 Quoting: Mandi/K


I can make the same argument with real estate too...yeah my houses are worth less than some years ago, but your home, paid for, is priceless in this shitty economy. Your car is also not an investment, normally, but if it's in good condition and paid for it's worth a ton more in usage than in resale value.

watched a video on utube last night. store in Delaware Ohio got in some PMC Bronze .223, 1000 rounds for $550!!!!!!!!!!!
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28870983


last 1000 rds I bought was $43/100 or .43/rnd, that was just a few weeks ago...your .55/rnd is not all that bad of a deal if there is no shipping charges.

Picked up the last of the .45 at my local gun store. The guy didn't raise prices on anything. He says he has no choice when the next shipment comes in....if ever.

Hey, what's the deal with primers having an expiration date? There was a thread a few days ago about primers going bad in 6months.

So all you reloaders need to look into it. I wish I was prepared like you people. I got nothing and when whatever happens happens, I'll still have nothing.

The .22 LR is my all time favorite round. I bought each of my boys their very first rifle, a .22 LR bolt action, stainless steel 10/22 with a scope. Deadly and accurate and at two cents a round, it's by far the most efficient firearm there is.

Not at my range, as long as it is not forward of the firing line. They don't want you going up and down the range line hoarding either.

Fair is fair. Collect your own.

Find a different range. A lot of them don't want to spend the time/money to pick it up.

Signs are up in the lanes, each lane has one. I'm sure if you were slipping smokin hot rounds outta your chamber into a container that they couldn't see, you'd be cool. Thing is there are cameras on the range 24/7 and all they would say is don't do that or you can't shoot here most likely. But definitely don't get caught sweeping and collecting even your own brass. A sure way to get kicked off the range. There are other ranges of course. Only saw the signs at this one. They are also a gun store and sell reloading supplies, as well as used brass cool2

The all-mighty dollar.

I love the outdoor range I go to. You're free to pick up your brass and if you've a mind to, your neighbor's brass.

No more range for me though. Not until I can buy ammo again.

Great thread by the way.

All you lurkers out there please put in your two cents.

Middle Tennessee: lots of places sold out. What's not sold out has gone up in price. Haven't seen any bulk .223/5.56, just the high-end stuff in 20 round boxes. Bulk 7.62x39 has gone way up. Saw some Romanian bulk 700 rounds (Berdan) for $300.

High quality hunting ammo (.243, .308, .30-06, etc.) is still mostly available and doesn't look like it's moved too much in price.

Can't find any .22lr, very little 12g in "small game" calibers (been looking for some #6 for a week or two - no luck). Can still find buck and slugs, about a dollar more per box than a couple months ago.

Haven't seen any 9mm, .40sw, .45acp ball. Saw HP rounds in those cals, price up on those.
