I know everyone is wondering just like I am to when some of the bullet manufacturer companies will step up on their product output manufacturing wise. I just pray that when they do that the QC doesn't drop off.

With the present state of the economy jobs should be pretty easy to get that's if the respected companies have not folded already or filed for Chapter 11.

I know that Midway, Natchez Shooting Supplies Hornady and others are has a tremendous put stock log.

Right now I am just hoping to get some more components. As of late I have been having a lot of folks asking about teaching them hold to reload. Some of these folks I would not trust tying their own shoes. Yes! Very scary!

Teaching them to hand load without components will be a challenge. Maybe this the Good Lord?s way of protecting some folks from themselves!

I'm not hopeful of things changing for the better anytime soon. I've started casting bullets again after almost giving it up some years ago.

i cast my first bullets this year and started powder coating. i am accumulating new molds for my given calibers so i can keep going. besides having thousands of bullets may end up being trading stock for primers or powder.

Reloading components and ammunition are almost completely unavailable here. Makes you really consider how much you shoot and I don't see anything changing in the current political climate.

I've been buying things as they come available but ammunition is off the hook. I've been able to find powder but bullets and primers just aren't available.

Looks like they figured out they don't have to restrict firearms ownership. Just take away the ammunition and components.

SMH.
