I learned some important lessons on the last two "ammunition runs". First, its a great way / excuse for manufactures to raise the price of product. Remember when a tray of primers use to cost $1.99?

Second, never have a "favorite" caliber. There were days I couldn't find powder so reloading was not an option. Purchasing factory ammo was like playing the lottery; which caliber were they going to have today?

There were days I couldn't find 30-06 or 270 but hey there is a box of 300W$M and one for the 6.5x55 SM. Carry as many calibers as you can afford.


Remember, not everyone has a happy ending, so be happy when you can
