Sell the ammo here. You will make more than replacement fee. depends on how bad he needs stuff when he gets to Idaho. Might get more money but if you can't buy what you need then its moot.
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

It’s been 9 months and the OP is posting like he’s still in ER. I wonder if he’s still moving?

No we are still here we decided to stay one more year hope to get out by the end of summer. Still alot of work to do on house, kids wanted one more year with their friends. Have figured out how to get everything down using ferry out of whittier. They said everything but blackpowder which I sold is allowed to be in vehicles and trailer. Other vehicles will go down with tote and driven over to boise from seattle .After just getting my prop tax card I`m realizing the politicians here are out to screw everyone as it jumped 18,300 this year are they [bleep] nuts all I did was lay a new driveway last fall. And really sell my ammo I can replace it!!!! I don`t think not for the prices I paid for all this stuff since 1978 . Aaron

Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

The reason all compass point north is because Alaska sucks. Apparently you haven't been there. We have property in SE so I guess Alaska sucks hard enough to be sucking me up there….I wish it would suck even harder so I could get the hell out of this once beautiful state turned liberal chithole. 😁

Negatory no ammo or reloading supplies are being sold its coming with I ain`t going to try to replace it at todays prices I got enough to keep me and the kids going till I`m dead except maybe primers. Yeah we have looked at house prices around boise thats the wifes deal we even looked at some places right inside the oregon border near boise they were a bit cheaper , they are pretty crazy on their prices for some of the old dumps people are trying to sell down there ,but neighbors houses here been selling for 375,000 in our hood so we should make some good money on our sale to get a place down there. Wife says we are going ,she is done with this state. She has family in boise and her mum and my stepson are there. And I`m so ready to get out 52 years is enough.

I lived in Mtn Home for 3 years, enjoyed it and the hunting was pretty damn good but it's been almost 22 years since I lived there so I'm sure things have changed and not for the better.
That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.

Good luck on the move. Your wife sounds like mine. I have heard through the grapevine that my job is going remote so I can go just about anywhere. The wife has a 5 year business commitment for her practice, then she plans on selling out and we leave AK. Both of my sons are wanting out as well. Five years gives the youngest time to finish college before we leave. At this point it’s either SC or FL. I am not a FL fan, but the SIL is there and is currently stage 4 of kidney failure.

Prices are still crazy.. Yeah we were looking for a winter home down there. Not the time to buy down there and not sure if it will get better.

Alright kids gather around the fire I have a story to tell.. I came down assignment to leave Alaska in 2013. My report date was Jan 2014 to fort Carson Colorado. My wife and daughter were ecstatic, at this point we been here 5yrs. They couldn’t wait to leave, so get house packed up movers get everything we get house rented and off we go. We get to Carson nice area, it in El Paso County population 900,000 plus yes more people in El Paso County than Alaska. Anyhow we find a nice place to rent life is good. Until summer comes subtle hints how they both miss Alaska wife not really happy with her new job with Dept of Airforce. So she applied for her old job back here in Alaska. October 2014 guess who was driving wife and daughter back to Alaska with a uhual trailer in tow? You guessed it this guy..while everyone hoots and hollers how they hate Alaska and blow out of town. They get to new destination and realize it sucks. We are going to snowbird that’s the extent of us leaving.

At least Boise has a manageable population a lot like Anchorage. Anyone leaving Ak highly recommended finding something with a small population.

Colorado is nice too I lived there before here, My Dad was in the Airforce that`s how we got here. Time to go hunt some deer way more tastier then the moose and caribou here. Will miss the tasty salmon and ptarmigan though. But the older daughter can ship me some fish down.

I’d snowbird here in a heartbeat. I’ve got a bud that just built a house in AZ, with a plan to snowbird for 5 years and then permanent in AZ after that. My plan is to just start leaving the state for 2 weeks every January and going someplace warmer. Once the youngest is out of high school, it won’t be an issue to do that. January is slow for me at work anyways, and a few days in Vegas or somewhere sounds nice!
