What a difference 5 years makes.

 

From 80$ per # on GB to the new concern....stock sitting on shelves gathering dust.

 

I get an email a week from PV begging me to buy something.  I'm still sitting on the pounds I was able to snipe in about February 2013.

 

So since I can get whatever I want, what is the premier sought after components?

I still have problems getting SPP for the better brands. .22lr prices are still high.

I don't know much about .22 but these seems pretty good?

I bought 20k rounds of 22 from targetsports usa over the winter. .04/round  and I got a 20% rebate on top of it.

Any chance you know who has VV 3N38?

Always keep a large supply of primers, they are the first to go when a scare arises. The Obama years were obviously rough on all fronts but if you remember - the first to go were primers, just like the Clinton years.

[Cranky Gunsmith]

Stock up on primers before the government requires the manufacturers to put that "stuff" in them that makes them go bad after a period of time.

This is the wisdom someone at the range imparted me with in the early 2000s when I started reloading.

I gotta say to some, I told you so.  I fucking told you so. 

 

Looking around seeing these ass clowns buying primers for 150 per K, 8# of Bullseye for $350.  You are the problem.  And you'll be selling it for pennies what you paid next year at a garage sale.

 

When I posted this a mere 18 months ago it was after months and months of emails and ads to please buy .22,  primers and power.  Shat. I recall a 5000 "bucket" of .22 for something like .03 cents a round.  One could buy 9mm for 115 per K.  I also got a kick out of the clowns trying to dump what they bought during the panic on local forums....watching the prices fall. 

 

What I didn't see was the run on coated lead bullets.  SNS, Blue et. al.  Always seemed like if they got a bunch of orders they could just work the weekend or something.

 

Still sad to see nothing can revitalize this place. Too many trolls.  Not even a range officer getting kilt could do it.
