I took a ride last weekend up to Fargo, and Grand forks North Dakota. While I was there I stopped at a couple of sporting good stores to see they had any goodies that I may need. I was very shocked at the prices I found, the IMR powder was about $7 cheaper. I bought some Sierra 7mm 140gr Boat tail bullets that were $10 a 100 box cheaper then my local Scheels All Sport store. One of the stores was a Scheels the other was Cabella's Every thing I looked at as far as components was significantly cheaper. Granted they are about 300 miles apart but it is hard to believe the difference.

Wow that's terrible but I think we are trying to catch your side of the pond.

I still think all this hoarding is about to end and the prices will drop...
(Wishful thinking?)

I really hope so! I love to shoot...... a lot. But I keep paying the price, I just stop in every time I'm near to keep my supplies stocked.

I just hoping that the new gun laws won't go through in our state .6 months back a young boy was shooting a micro Uzi for a photo at a machine gun shoot run by a police chief .He couldn't take the recoil so the gun flew high up and hit him through the brain.Now they want to make it illegal for anyone who doesn't own a machine gun to shoot it.And since my brother has a pal at work who owns a MP-40 and a STG-44 ,there is a good chance I may get to use one .The guy even has a LAW-66!!But if this bill goes through then us MA gun owners are history .

Those aren't my kind of guns but I hate to see any kind of gun bans. It just give the bleeding heart *T^$^@!*# one ore notch in the belt.

Supplies are growing slowly in my area. I had a good supply of reloading components and have tried to replace only what I have used, same thing with 22 ammo.

I was surprised I actually found primers yesterday, but no magnum primers.
