Anyone know a current source for decent and decently priced mag. ammo?

Shirley you jest!

😆 yeah I know. Worth a try tho..

I hear REN-Fiddy cuts good deals?

He’s traded it all for 9Megameter

Couple of options.

Still high as hell though.

I’ve searching for it too, it’s really hard to find

Free shipping on orders more than 200.00.

Cheapest I’ve seen. That might work

Thanks

If you didn't buy enough for several lifetimes back in 19 and 63 then you are a fool.

I haven't seen any in local stores in ages, and online prices are ludicrous.

My piggy bank just came into existence in 19hunert and 63.
Problem was-I couldn't count yet.

Bastid. Who you been texting?

He's sitting on a big cache of .357 at his Hi-Line Redoubt, probably has the good MRE's with fancy desserts, too.

Fancy as in frosted Pop-tarts..

Said every couch tater over 65 on the Fire.

Lol

🦫

I have never bought from them, but I did find this...

1000 rounds

He’ll trade like an Indian Squaw, if you have a bottle of fire water and a frisbee for his kids.


🦫

Most of those pricks are still only halfway through that box of KleenBore that PeePaw gave em.

They will call SB a hoarder for having 300 rounds of 357's.

Those would shoot.

Hop on that deal, SB.

🤷🏽‍♀️🦫

You do know our clientele too well.

🦫

Sheit. I have more than that, and a plethora of .38

Fûck’n ass-hole hoarder!

🦫

Thank you

😊

.67 cents a round with shipping

Got to get set up to load them. But you know that. Cast & coated bullets are cheap. Powder comes around. Brass is a sometimes thang. Primers are premium priced but all in all you still come out better than buying factory stuff. Just probably take a bit to come up with it all. End of free advise. Guaranteed good free advise is $20.

Edit: just saw the 1000 round deal. These days that ain’t bad.

All of my loading equipment is in storage out of state. When I get a house built I’ll move it. Right now this works.

Post a picture of that cool, new, pew-pew you got.

Everyone be thinking you got yourself something your Paw-Paw handed down to you from 1909


🦫

1000 pieces of 357 brass ain’t bad to have on hand for later either.

👍🏼🦫

Nope. That’s about the easiest way to get it these days.

I keep myself on the the "Notify Me" lists for my favorite sellers and usually get a couple of notices a month that stock has arrived. It's a good practice. I just picked up a bunch of Remington HTP ammo in .38 Spl and .357 from Midway. It's not super cheap anymore. But it does come in with some regularity.

Koolio!

That looks like a fun Lever.

🦫

Fugging it up for the rest of us.

Pretty good looking ammo for sale in classified section. .357 a couple weeks back and some +P .38 that’ll carry freight. Don’t know what your budget is but availability matters.

Been burning .357Mag like crazy here in the past month or two. Reloading though.......Have been able to find components and so I'm making the most of it. Large Pistol Mag Primers for $5.50 @ Sportsman's and last weekend Scheels had H100 for 29.99/lb and Hornady JHP 158gr for 25.99. Not pre Biden prices, but not ridiculous either.

Try Georgia Arms in Villa Rica, Ga. They have a web site.

When you fetuses' finally decide to learn from boomers instead of blaming them, you'll be gettin ahead.

Gosh! Two boxes?


Hoarder!

Never touch the stuff. Factory .38 and .357 has been expensive for at least a couple of decades. Last cheap stuff I found was some Fed .38+P 158LHP for about $3.50 for 20, about 20 years ago, and the cases on about 1-10 of those split on the sides. Rolling your own is the only way to fly with revolvers unless you’re well-to-do.

OTOH, 9mm ain’t worth the time, even at $.30 a pop. I buy the Blazer aluminum so I won’t be tempted to scrounge my brass.

That stuff will blow lungs right out of a body.

That’s 2.7 % of my stash

Mackay Sagebrush sells 357 M and 38 Spcl +P in the Classifieds here.......good stuff, and not outrageous.

I'll have to say, 4000 rounds of full power357 magnum is a pretty good stash.

Might be, you da horder.

That amount just fell out of my front pocket, Boomer.

🤣🦫

+P Forgot about Mac.

He’s got a fair price on good loads.

🦫

Think I have a couple of coffee cans full of hand loads.

Most 357 magnum ammo is still priced under whiz-bang lung blower 9mm ammo sleepy joe wants to ban.

Thank you[/quote

Sold out

Most of us were smart enough to lay in sufficient components to roll'en as we need'em.

What's your excuse, Junior?

Umm, well, umm….I was paying off a student loan 🤷🏽‍♀️

Laffin

🦫

Not laffin here, and good for you. At least some of you have the Class to keep your word and do what's right.

Ammo companies seem to think the only rounds handguns come in are 9mm, 380 Auto, 40 SW, 22 LR and 45ACP. I can't remember the last time I saw a box of 38 SP, 357 Mag, 44 Mag, 45 LC etc... on the shelf

It has become the "Big Box" mentality anymore in this new world.

Buy what we want you to buy and like it.

I have more than I will ever shoot at my age and I didn't buy 1 round. Two death , I got some and an older lady could not shoot any more. I taught her handgun shooting 20 years ago for a CC permit. So she said come and get it. Same with 38 special.

I shoot mostly .357 loads at 38 velocities, 158 gr SWC. I can't shoot the full loads any more

That site has this as a mission statement.

Ammo restrictions: We do not sell or ship ammunition to residents of Hawaii, Alaska, Massachusetts, New York State, Washington DC, New Jersey (non-hollow point and shotgun shells are allowed), California, Chicago Illinois and within 50 miles of Chicago or any location that requires air shipment. ADDED 08/10/2020: We will not sell or ship to any area deemed to be unsafe due to protests such as Portland Oregon or within 50 miles of Portland Oregon. The same applies to any large city where protests are not peaceful, demanding de-funding police, and or it has a high rate of gun violence.

Well, how bought this amount fetus;



Or;




Rookies I say , fetuses' be rookies. Watch Boomers & learn

Rogers has American Eagle 158 grain, 50 round boxes. Buy 5 or more boxes, it's $34.99 each. About 69 cents a round, with free shipping.

https://www.rogerssportinggoods.com/federal-american-eagle-357magnum-158grain-handgun-ammunition

9mm is pretty cheap.

They are making LOTS of it.

Here is another deal for 1000 rounds of PMC.

1000 rounds

They had 11 in stock when I looked

Did anybody get on that deal when Walmart closed out the 100 rd Remington SJHP packs for $30 because Remington was bringing out new packaging?

I ended up with 5 of those. Best deal ever.

Yes I did. I have one full box.

Touché!

I don’t have big enough pockets to carry that much around....But, I got a truck.

Lol

🦫

Puny stack of primers, that. Hope the “fetuses” (anyone younger than a boomer?) have more than that. This one does… I bet Mac does, too. And some others. Generalizations are usually the incorrect assumptions of the self-aggrandizing numbskull.

I have two partial boxes of 22-250, a box of .308, an opened 500 pack of golden bullets and a flat of 12ga bird shot.

Don’t tell Joe I have more than a 100 rounds.

This past winter(while busy stockpiling Rotella...) I built up my small arsenal.


Picked up a few new handguns and the proper ammo to go with them.

Personal protection items for family.



Rodger's almost became the new favorite on-line ammo retailer.

They would have beat midway but I ordered a pistol from Larry and that was enough for the lead.

Money well spent IMHO.

SandBilly;
Good evening to you sir, I hope your part of the world had decent weather and all else is as right as can be in your world.

Thanks for sharing the photo of the youngster with a lever gun with us, it make this old lever gun aficionado smile for a bunch of reasons.

As a broad statement I don't have a pile of things in life I'd like to do over, but looking back on the fun new shooters have had with a .223 bolt rifle and a .357 lever carbine... well let's say I heartily recommend both for any shooters but new shooters seem to really enjoy them.

In the .357 lever carbine for ammo I've only used .38 Spl so far and need to run at least a couple .357's through it. In a similar way as you, I've got one open box of .38Spl and two rows left in a box of .357 so it should all be good....

Seriously though sir, a tip of the hat to you for taking the time and making the effort to build bridges with any youngster - if it's yours even better - but any young/new shooters are a grand, grand thing.

All the best and thanks again for the positive photo.

Dwayne

Missed the pic.



That is a badass setup, I want one!

Thanks Dwayne, he likes it a lot. A little long for him at the moment but he’ll have a different setup for support when hunting. We were just messing around and checking it with the suppressor.

Don’t shoot all that ammo at once. 😉

New tractor gun Sam, you need one!

SB, you are thinkin' now....lol

Sam;
Good evening to you my old friend, I hope that you're all getting the weather your crops and your cattle need and of course I hope you're all well too.

I'm admonished - fairly firmly actually - in Exodus 20:17 that I'm not to covet anything that is my neighbors...

So it is with a heavy heart that I must admit that I am beyond envious and might I say covetous of you free folks being able to have suppressors.

Even as a hidebound traditionalist Sam, I could own at least one lever gun with a threaded barrel if I could run a can....

For sure as you say, it's a fine looking setup indeed.

All the best to you all Sam.

Dwayne

Thinking about a new hand guard.

Renegade really likes it when you Buck Roger’s out a new gun. I’m sure he’d approve. 😆

https://www.midwestindustriesinc.com/category-s/514.htm

Howdy Dwayne!


All good here and I fully agree. A threaded lever gun is beyond sweet!
(I don't have a single suppressor and NEED to get with the program...)

Lol.

😆😆😆😆

300 fugging rds? Wtf you gonna do on Sunday jack your root.?...mb

Whut?

Check out the price on this.. Rory sent it to me, said I “needed” it.

SandBilly;
Thanks for the reply and most excellent advice, I'll try my utmost to heed it.

Silly question from an unschooled Canuck, but other than more cleaning perhaps there's no downside to lead with a suppressor is there?

As mentioned, I've been shooting .38Spl lead out of the lever gun and the barrel looks cleaner than a .22 with an equal number of rounds.

If the young shooter is keen to learn, casting is a fun rabbit hole to jump into.

I started casting on the kitchen stove when I was maybe 13 or so and convinced my Dad to do the paperwork for a .36 Colt Navy replica kit gun. The .36 Navy is long gone, but casting is still something this old guy likes to fool with from time to time.



If I could figure out a way to use them to convert this into something, I bet my open box issue would be less worrisome, you know?



I am cognizant that if you do this it'll be in the future once the reloading setup is in place too, but the girls and I did some casting together when they were younger and they seemed to enjoy it.

All the best again sir, it's really good to see the next shift getting a firm foundation.

Dwayne

I’m far from an expert on suppressors but my understanding is you do not want to shoot lead cast through one if its not serviceable. The only cans that I have that can be completely taken apart are .22 cans, and they’re the only ones I clean. I’d still like to get into casting either way, never know when we may have to totally grow our own..

SandBilly;
Thanks again for the reply, I appreciate it and again I've learned something sir!

It never occurred to me that one couldn't take them apart somehow...

The neat thing about casting is - well used to be when we could find the molds - but it's relatively easy to make some odd stuff.

For instance there's an obscure ruling here that one can hunt black bear with a 20guage shotgun or larger but that it has to have Number 1 Buckshot. Buddy on another forum has a 20guage double as a "camp gun" and didn't want to run afoul of the CO's if they happened to inspect it and there's no such animal as No. 1 buckshot in 20guage on this side of the medicine line.

Anyways long story short, No. 1 Buck pellets are .300" and buddy got a gift package in the mail of a bunch of .312" round balls so he's good to go should an impromptu CO encounter happen.

While it's stalled a wee bit as of late with house and garden work, one of the things on the "to do" list is work up a round ball load with a few of the .308" bored rifles in the safe using those .312" balls and running through a .309" sizer. It "should" with either Trail Boss or a pinch of 231 make something fairly quiet and nothing to stand in front of either I'm thnking?

Anyways casting does open up a different avenue or three for sure and if the new shooter is into it, so much the better right?

All the best.

Dwayne

How's that Muslim Studies degree working for ya, Beav?

Lol

You are a malqit alhimar

😂🦫

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Pick up a box of 20 Remington 158’s tonight for $33.79. Sportsman’s had a few boxes in stock.

I was exchanging jabs with a few on here that were picking on old farts. That's ALL. Otherwise, lighten up Francis. My ex wife called me nearly every name in the book. But I must admit, self-aggrandizing nimbskull might surpass that bitch. Good job.

Now, back to the fun, or a serious nature. Was at Bud's today along with Sportsman's, 357 IS surprisingly scarce. I didn't know. And, I didn't know that the OP was a reloader & in the middle of a move. Good luck with finding ammo for the young shooter, wish I could help. Just the shipping cost & logistics keep me from donating.

🤣 😂

Bunch of damn bullies around here, gotta stay on your toes.

Beav is busy working out her inferiority complex with the 300 RUM . LMAO

We all see you standing there on the sidelines waving your Pride Flag and hoping someone will notice you…Post a picture of yourself and your lover Bobby Brown Eye.

Hell, post a picture of anything you own or done that has a something to do with hunting or shooting…But we all know that ain’t gonna happen either.
