I know 300 RUM ammo and brass have been in extremely short supply it seems forever. I have a decent supply, but checked the usual places last night for some more "good" brass (Norma, Nosler) and forget it. It's not happening. Ammo? Everything was sold out.

Interesting was the fact that some ammo or brass was backorderable but not Nosler. Nosler ammo and components were out and not able to be backordered. Do you think the fact that Nosler has been bought out by ATK has anything to do with that?

It appears that it may have been a perfect storm of increased demand and the end of a production cycle? I don't know...it's been such a long time you think the companies would have caught up by now.

You only live once, but...if you do it right, once is enough.
