shooterrex Posted April 7, 2022 Report Share Posted April 7, 2022 Hornady 6.5 Creedmoor American Gunner is nowhere to be found. My rifle really likes that load and I'm down to about 300 rounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNP Posted April 7, 2022 Report Share Posted April 7, 2022 You tell me, ammo seller. Stick around and get involved in the conversations you start. You have 3 posts here and a link to an ammo site in your profile. Almost as if you’re just hoping to direct traffic and that’s you’re only reason for swinging through. You’ve been here since October of 21. Hang out a bit and share some thoughts - probably wind up getting a few more bites if you have time for that. Or just lob a hand grenade question every now and then and see where it goes. Welcome to the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MtnMike Posted April 9, 2022 Report Share Posted April 9, 2022 Agreed on primers being the most scarce ammo item. Unobtainable in WNC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverDragon Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 Primers! Primers! Primers! Especially small rifle primers, I'm totally out, have the brass, bullets and powder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cunuckgaucho Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 Primers with small pistol primers in particular in my neck of the woods We knew things were getting bad when Canadian dealers were getting so many calls/attempted orders from the USA they placed disclaimers on their websites about not being able to ship to the US Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarWolf Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 This is an older topic but since it's been revived, now last month... NOTE, Yes special orders are SOMETIMES an option but the morons in Kalifornia govt have deemed we have to go through a background check and get it at a FFL so ordering it cost you an extra 5-10% most of the time plus background fee and sometimes an additional receiving fee on top of the percentage depending on the FFL. I bug the heck out of the ammo clerks asking for what they don't have. I have clerks telling me they NEVER carried certain calibers I've bought in their shops while Trump was in office. I have had clerks tell me they never even hear of or seen some of these calibers. 50 Beowulf 6.5 Grendel 270 Winchester .30-06 Springfield .30-30 Winchester .444 Marlin .45-70 Govt .30 Carbine (bought a full ammo can in bandoleers the week before the COVID shutdown. You should have seen the stares as I walked out of the shop with it as the other 80 folks there were trying to buy emergency firearms...) 7.62x25 .32 Auto .300 Winchester Magnum 7mm 08 Remington .243 Winchester .22 WMR .357 Magnum .44 Magnum 10mm There's more, .38 SP shows up from time to time but at $.75 to $1.50 a round when it's in stock I'm not typically biting. Before Obama, I didn't think I'd have much problem finding .30-06, .30-30, .300 WinMag, .270, .357 Mag, .22WMR. During Clinton primers got scarce but I was able to scare up 3-5 K large rifle. I've got reloading equipment and supplies for most of these but as has been mentioned primers and powders are hard to replace right now.

It was the first Grendel ammo I have seen on the shelf in a couple of years and it was a reasonable price. 450 Bushmaster ammo is still $1.75+ per round. I'm not buying at that price.

MikedaddyH Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 No primers around here. Powders are back. $39.99 to $56.99 a pound Also pistol ammo is back . I was at Bass Pro Shops. Good supply of rifle, pistol and shotgun ammo on the shelves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pistol and small rifle primers are harder to find than an honest politician Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketch Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 I had a gun shop tell me the primers were to expensive to sell me, for the ammo they were intended to reload.. I could buy it loaded cheaper. But, what the hell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtnMike Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 I was seriously considering taking up reloading as a new hobby. Even had a local friend willing to show me the basics and work up some rounds for a few different .308s we have if I got the primers, powder and bullets (already had bagfuls of spent cases). However, the lack of availability of large rifle primers, plus the costs of components - then there was the cost of the equipment if I was going to do it myself - made me give it up before I even started. Just socked away a few extra 1000s of quality factory loads instead. Cheaper by far if I place fair value on my time. My old carcass probably only has a couple, maybe three, more decades of vigor left in it anyway. This ought to last me - (he says as he scans the online retailers for prices on favored bullets😊) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim3326 Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 I found some Hornaday Match 108ELD at Sportsmans for 33 / 20. All things considered I didn't think it was to bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no more Grendel ammo at the moment. They have craploads of 6mm ARC ammo. Match ammo is $25/box and Hunter ammo is $35/box. They had 15-20 boxes of each this evening when I was there. @98Z5Vwant any more? Edited March 22, 2023 by Armed Eye Doc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the only caliber I have available right now for any kind of distance. I'll start making paycheck allotments to you... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
