RST does have some shells available, so I loaded up.

12 gauge Nice Shot is in, so I got a few boxes of that too. Their supplies of Nice Shot were tight last season

all I can say is I hope things change after the next election

And the Pope's new campaign for a worldwide "legitimate redistribution of wealth."???
What ever happened to the "separation of church and state"? :shock:

That is EXACTLY what the founding fathers had in mind to avoid when they put separation of church and state in the Constitution.

I am not convinced it is all politicians and smell big ammo companies trying to run the small guys out of business.

The precise phrase in the 1st Amendment reads:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion..."

It contains no mention of "redistribution of wealth."

Still, a Pope and his faith hold more wealth in the Vatican and worldwide than anyone can know. Doesn't charity begin "at home"?

BTW, Ballistic Products has Fiocchi and Winchester cartridges on SALE.

the phrase separation of church and state was embodied in US law by a Supreme Court decision in1947.

i've been lucky in finding what powder I have been looking for most of the time lately. One of the bigger shops I stop at tells me Clays should be back in production later this summer.

Not to belabor a 'conspiracy theory' but I just read where FEMA and DHS attempted to buy up the entire supply of Survival Food produced by the Food4Patriots company and it leaves me wondering about their motives....?

Just one of many strange things going on? FEMA & DHS buying food that will last almost as long as a Twinke could make some logical reason. At least that can be used if another natural disaster puts thousands in shelters.

But why does the United States Postal Service (USPS) need ammo? There are others buying large amounts of ammo that seem more than a little odd too! Social Security!?:shock: I'm living on Social Security and I don't think they are going to provide me protection services.

Business Week wrote that "On April 14, 2014 Newsmax reported that the USPS was seeking to buy a large amount of ammunition on the heels of similar purchases by the Social Security Administration, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration."

I'm still looking for a supply of .22 ammo. I see a little more ammo on the shelves but not what I need.:banghead:

HUGE ammo buys by " Social Security Administration, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration." ???

I give the members of this organisation more credit than that. Ask yourself these questions;

Why does the SS administration need ammunition? Malevolent retirees?
Why does the UDSA need ammunition? Enraged pigs and cows?
Why does the NOAA need ammunition? Shamu gone wild?
Has the government ever lied to you? Think "Benghazi."

To hell with .22 LR. I want .50 BMG...
