Gee, I wish I could get some of this out to you guys and cheap or I'm a d__ liar.
Not me. I'm a capitalist. Just sold another thousand .223's for 700 bucks (my 3rd sale to friends and family). 70 cents a round. Store prices are just under a buck if you can find them...and I have them trained now, they pick up the brass and I get it back so I can reuse it, clean (wet tumble), anneal, FL resize, prime, charge and seat new pills and sell again. I have very hungry family members and a gob of components. That don't include all the other stuff I run like 460 S&W, 300 WinMag, 45LC, 7.62 x 54, 338 Lapua, 44RM and some others.
Life is good, wallet is fat and yes, a few large ammo cans full for my personal use too.
Reminds me of the time when I owned 3 useless AK47's. That was back during the Obama years and I sold all 3 in the parking lot of a local gun show for 4 times what I paid for them, in cash plus 4 ham cans of Wolf steel jacketed 7.62 x 39. What a junk gun but then one man's floor is another's ceiling. When you can buy a junk gun for 300 bucks and sell it for 1200 bucks, it's a good day. Times 3 at the same time is like wining the lottery.
Haven't even bothered to look to see what is available or not available. Don't need to.
Didn't 'hoard' anything. Just bought more than I needed, each time I ordered supplies. Never could see buying a pound of powder or a couple boxes of primers when the haz mat fee was the same for a pound or 20 pounds or a couple boxes or a full brick (primers) or multiple bricks. Same with bullets. Quantity was (probably not now) cheaper than buying a box or 2. Always bought my bullets in full cases which was usually 500 or 1000 at a time.
Little did I know what was going to transpire, I'm not a fortune teller, but after Obama, I got gun shy so to speak. Glad I did.
All good here. No need to see what is available or not as it's all available to me.
