Was in a small local shop yesterday to get some wads. I noticed they had Federal Top Gun, and Estate shells at $6.95 a box with a 4 box limit. Another small local shop had CCI 209 primers at $70/1000. That is crazy.

Here is an example of an EXTREME attempt to gouge.

I just saw that Federal has already started production of the Remington ammo. We shall see how this shakes down in the coming months.

I tried calling about getting some RST low pressure Ammo here in CA. Not available or any target loads either. It’s very frustrating.

Ammo
A fellow skeet shooter was on the wait list a local sports shop in Lehigh Co. PA. He was able to purchase a flat of Federal Top Gun this week for $89 plus tax. Limit of 1 flat per customer.
He left after shooting 2 rounds. Needs to make his supply last a while. |
Ammo/Beer Run
Today was a very profitable/expensive day. Tennis got cancelled this morning, so made a beer run across state lines to Capelli's beer distributor in Washington, Pa--much better prices than here in Wheeling, so WTH, picked up 4 cases of Yuengling. Then on to a little business that sells reloading supplies on the side: picked up a couple thousand primers at $30/thousand, a few lbs of 20/28 powder and more shot. Price gouging has not hit here. Then cross country to see Brett Hoops, who had picked up a couple bags of shot for me a month ago. We ogled, weighed, and discussed our Parkers and future wants and needs, while his bird dogs listened intently( or maybe they were bored).
On the way home, got a call from my friend Mike who had just picked up a skid of dog food, several of us feed. So met him and took 6 bags. So I'm good for a while--plenty of shot, primers, and powder--plenty of beer and 4 months worth of dog food. |
Harold, what brand of primers did you get for $30. That is about what they should cost.

I got Cheddites, the Win 209's were $35--I have used cheddites before and never had any problem.
