Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire More ammo and component shortages

I'm glad I stocked up earlier this month. I got 5000 small pistol primers and 3000 plated 9mm bullets. I already had plenty of powder, since the 9mm uses so little per charge. I've loaded 10000 rounds of ammo this summer already, and loaded roughly 8000 rounds, but I haven't shot that many. I've got plenty of loaded ammo stashed, but I'm in good shape for now, at least until most of this stuff blows over. Got plenty of .22 rimfire, quite a bit of .223, a good amount of .45 ACP, and quite a bit of other stuff, or the ability to load it. I've had the rifle bullets I need for a LONG time, and plenty of powder for those, too. Got roughly 1500 rounds of 12 gauge, too.


Yeah, I'm a boomer, and yeah, I've got a helluva lot of ammo. Get over it.

No shortages yet IMO. But not staying on track as far as coming down in price, it's slowed.. Been tracking a bit & comparing to what I watched during the Trump years.

Getting to be like very active in stock trading, when to by. Will it go down more? Or freeze,,, or skyrocket.

Looking forward to new times. Buying what I can when I can. This is just one drawer

I wish I had stocked up on trap loads. Just didn't shoot as much as I would have liked. I thought it was funny that stores had pallets of clay birds but no shells to shoot them with. I have quite a bit of primers powder and bullets but keep most of stuff in components. If I croak they would be easier to sell. Just load a couple or three hundred at a time

I ain't gonna be caught flat footed.

300 more Golden Pheasant on order. 16 and 20 gauge, 5 and 6 shot. $1 apiece with $hipping.



Double as self defense ammo or barter material so win/win.

Lol.

I hear ya.

I’m a little disappointed.

There should be way more 70 old members bragging about the [bleep] they’ve been ratholing for the last 40 years and laughing about all the components their grandkids are going to sell for penny’s or turn into the local Stasi

I was all ready to pounce on some good deals next spring on leftover ammo before the stupid middle east insanity. Now, I'm going to have to wait another 5 years before things settle down.

Well, you got it, Whiner.

You & Flave just continue to be cockswappers. You'll be fine.

Hold on, I've got to to take a BP pill, Vodka anyone?

But Pard, just relax. Pard.

Golly.....that's almost some.

Let’s not forget that there is no reason for any of us to be experiencing shortages of anything in the United States over the past 20 years.

Other than white liberals.

Exactly. 💯

Sorry you’re bitch.

I guess?

Well, I guess I'm supposed to be impressed, me being a young person and all......


I'm still waiting for my feeling of awe to kick in.

I have no sympathy for anyone who gets caught short on ammo or components this time around.

The shelves have been full of 22 ammo and other center fire rounds for quite a while now, reloading components have been generally available although the prices were high but not as high as they will be when they are soon not available again.

That light at the end of the tunnel is an oncoming train.

I got 44 CoreLokts left. Hope that's enough. If humanity blows itself up, I hope it's soon. Next year I gotta buy a furnace, an air conditioner, a car and send another kid to college. I'd hate to go through all that headache and then die before I go on my first Canada fishing trip in July.

Just let your jealousy emotion run wild and be sure not to ever sacrifice for anything.

That Starbucks pumpkin latte sure is tasty..

I'll be sure to take a vote on how hard I have to check my privilege too

shortage ? sheeit, all I gotta do is dig up some of my Y2K stash

then there's the 2012 re-obama stash

then the cv19 stash

there ain't no shortage out here

White liberals are an illusion.
