I think I have a box. If so I’ll get with you

Having rifles that I can cast bullets for 30-06, 45 Colt, 405 Winchester, 8mm, 308, 45-70, it never was an issue.

I've been looking for my old standby .270 130 gr SST bullet to load up some ammo for next year's deer season. Everyone sold out. I know there's an ammo/powder/primer shortage, but damn, there's apparently even been a run on hunting bullets too! Geeez!
When do y'all think this crap will end? This is why I buy a lifetime supply of a bullet, powder, brass & primer that I choose as a permanent hunting load. I’m sitting on a stack of many of the items people are pining for now. Sure, I could make big profits thru all of this, but I’m not married to money. Nor could I exploit my fellow man just for gain.

And here in eastern N.C. where we are allowed an unlimited number of deer tags , I have a pretty good data set to draw from.

Thanks, y'all - looks like I've got a couple of lines on some bullets now.
Now find me some 32 H&R brass and I'll be set. 😊 I have some of those. 97 new Federal to be exact & they’re even primed with CCI primers. Send me $20 and cover shipping and they’re yours. Outstanding! I'll PM you. Thanks.

Well, you hadn't noticed this six months ago. I have some extra 270 bullets if you might need a handful.
Yes, I noticed things turning south last summer when the Antifa/BLM loonies were burning up the country. At the same time I was dealing with the slow, long process of my mother dying and making ammo wasn't even on my mind. Plus, I thought Trump would be reelected and things would turn around. I have plenty of 5.56 as I'm a Service Rifle competitor and shoot literally thousands of rounds a year, so I'm good there. I just didn't know how low on hunting ammo I had gotten - and wouldn't have expected it to be difficult to find 100-round boxes of .270 bullets.

I still kinda giggle when people talk about bullets for use on deer as if deer are really hard to kill...... Arrows, .223, 6cm, 6.5cm, .270, 30-30, .308, 44mag, 45/70, .50 muzzleloader have all killed just fine for me. The only caliber I really think about the bullet is .223.

Have you checked midsouth? I know they got SST .308 and .323 available in stock or can back order. Limited selection.
Dont know about .270 though. I dont surf for them.

My nephew has dumped several nc deer with SST's out of a bastard 6.5-08 I had left over from my High Power days. He says they were DRT. If I had any .270 bullets I'd deliver them.......

I bought about 120 rounds of 150 grain Winchester 350 Legend when it was readily available. Hard to find now. I have enough to deer hunt in Ohio until I'm too old to hunt.

I inherited so much 270 components that I thought about buying one...never owned one. Whatcha got for bullets??? Ha, I'll have to look. I have quite a bunch of 7mm bullets too and don't own any 7mm's. 😃

Seems a little late to the party. There have been ammo issues for two decades. And get caught with no ammo for your primary meat stick. Not good.

The best thing to do on bullets is do a trade. Most of us have quite a few boxes that have been sitting around not being used. Advertise what you want to trade. Usually works out, they get what they want and so do you
