I talked to a heavy hauler trucker yesterday, he was from Florida. He said he heard of Flave, LOL.
He was telling me everywhere he has went across the country, that the popular ammo is gone.

My reloading shed has plenty of ammo waiting to be made. Yep, fixing to finish loading 1K .223 with $13.00 per 500 fmj's purchased in the '90's for times just like these. Bought a lot of these just after the Slick Willie Clinton '94 primer scare. Hate to see guys ammo-less, but it's hard to sympathize with people who refuse to pay attention, even after the recent 2011-2013 ammo/component shortage but want to cry in a public forum about no ammo to be had.

LGS yesterday 9mm was $35.00 and up, a case of Federal was $1100.00. Are you saying a 1000 rd case of Federal 9mm was $1100? If so, I've got several I'll sell in about 45 days. Lol.

Fact is you can never have enough ammo. I'd like to have more of everything, especially some heavy hard cast 10mm ammo.
Life is good live it while you can.

With no ammunition available, the defense of freedom won’t last long. Anyone think this across the board shortage is serendipitous? When things heat up, there will be no resupply. My re-supply sits about 30 ft from where I sit right now. Plenty of components with which to keep me and mine supplied for a long time and plenty already loaded up. I don’t rely on factory ammo.
If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

Guys just keep on doing the same thing and expecting a different result. You would think everyone that shoots would be stocked up but no, they're not. We have been through this two or three times now in recent memory but folks just dont seem capable of learning. Sad.

So true, my brother was caught shorthanded He asked me if I would sell him some ammo and I said no, LOL, I sort of kind of felt bad but I gave him links to overpriced ammo and he bought it :-)

My reloading shed has plenty of ammo waiting to be made. Best get after it. Components are completely useless unless assembled.

I have a sealed case of Fed 210's (5K)
I'd trade straight across for the same in Rem 7.5's
As the saying goes.........

If I saw $1100 per case, that'd be a door I'd never darken again. Agreed. I don't have a clue what the V Max that was first mentioned goes for...I know it's premium ammo. Regular FMJ Fed is better than Wolf or the like, but it's pretty much bargain basement. $350 per 1000 was the going rate for a long time.
