Do I have to worry about getting ammo (300 win mag) next summer for my fall 2022 hunts? Currently I cannot find any of the 3 300 win mag ammo I typically use, or any of the 2 I want to try?
How dare you buy that many! ?Went to my local store yesterday. Lots and lots of ammo. Just basic brands. But shelves looked good.
Bought 160 rounds of 7mag. Hope i am not labeled as a hoarder due to still plenty left on shelf for the next guy
It's not just ammo, it's just about everything. We are constantly running out of electrical supplies. Some products are backordered over 3 to 4 months. Try buying a turkey the week of Thanksgiving and see how that goes.I’m still confused why ammo isn’t being produced and hitting the shelves. Can someone catch me up. I don’t follow news stories very well anymore.

That would be a good thing. Turkey is played out in my opinion and I would rather have Enchiladas instead. On the issue of 3-4 months, I just ordered two 50 round boxes of Hornady brass for 300 Savage from a well known online place and it’s 2-4 months out. I thought I was getting it right away because when I clicked on it, it allowed me to Add to Cart instead of Place Backorder. Then I get the email notification about it being on back order. It’s 300 Savage so it’s no big deal in the big picture. It’s not like I’m going to use it for anything important. I’m just going to play with it but if it was, I would be in trouble.
Buy 6.5 CM. Plenty of that laying around. Or a 6.8 Western...Do I have to worry about getting ammo (300 win mag) next summer for my fall 2022 hunts? Currently I cannot find any of the 3 300 win mag ammo I typically use, or any of the 2 I want to try?
But some of us need more.... no matter how much we have.There's 80 odd million of us with over 300 million weapons, and all we need is just 3 more boxes........
I honestly don’t think we will ever see it like it was.
Eel, didn't the sawmill give you guys turkeys for Thanksgiving. The coal mines always gave us turkeys for Thanksgiving and hams for Christmas. They would even call me after I retired and tell me to come and get my free ham and turkey.I just saw 11-12 lb. turkeys for $6.00/ea this morning. I bought 10. I hate people who hoard.
I think they did a few years. Then they started giving $50 gift cards from locally owned grocery stores. That quit when I retired. I do get free mill trim ends for firewood though. The owner told me to come down anytime I want.Eel, didn't the sawmill give you guys turkeys for Thanksgiving. The coal mines always gave us turkeys for Thanksgiving and hams for Christmas.

Then, Obama put them bankrupt and that was the end of my hams and turkeys.
6.5 CM - is that the same as 300 win mag?
Now We Are Sending Ammo To Ukraine?

Lotsa brass for that locally.Or a 6.8 Western!
No kidding. Do I see H1000 and Retumbo on those shelves? *drool*That aisle of powder is the prettiest thing I’ve seen in a long time.
Scheels in sparks today had a bunch of 125 grainWould like to know where you see lots of 6.5 CM, I can rarely find it. 6mm and 300 BO fills most of the shelves.

Been lots of 6.5 CM in utah and salt lake counties. Scheels had a bunch of Hornaday last week, so did Al's.Uhh No!
I've told this story before and I'll say it again. My grandparents raised me and my grandpa would tell me that during ww2 as a civilian he searched high and low for ammo (30-06) to deer hunt and he could only scrounge up six rounds and had to make them last for several years. I was twelve when he first told me that and it was one story I took to heart and learned from. I'm glad I did.Reminds me of my Grandfather telling me about living thru the depression..you didn't waste ammo on targets or fence-posts you became a hunter and made every shot count...I got good at ground-sluicing..
I Don't See Any BH 209?
HSM. Which i believe they use a berger bullet. Cant remember the costWhat Brand & Bullets nfh?
how much??HeII I bought a 1000 Federal LR primers last week. Could have knocked me over with a feather!

Those have all been rechambered to 6.5Chasing rainbows and unicorns. The shortage is not officially over until boxes of 6MM REM show up!!!!!!
lol....they'll wobbleThose have all been rechambered to 6.5
Going for a ridiculous price on Gunbroker. Must be more than one guy out there that really needs some!!! ?Bighorn 209 is in stock at Cabela's but you'll be paying a premium for it!
