Yeah, wasn’t all that long ago when the same sounds were being made in regard to .22 ammo. Now $3.50 is pretty much the new $1.00, if you look a bit anyway. 9mm can be had for less than $.30 a pop, so loading it still doesn’t make much sense.

I keep getting ads for those $.09 & $.10 primers; have one in my box right now with free HAZMAT, but I don’t need any. I suspect they’re not really flying off the shelf at that price. My inner packrat did fall for some very cheap Speer .224 bullets not long ago, ones suitable for my Hornet and 5.7. Hard to pass up at $10 or $12 a hundred.


What fresh Hell is this?
