6.5 Grendel

Looked on ammo seek and it’s pretty bleak. Been making my own for a while.

Tell me about it. I’ve been looking. Glad I have a few boxes to hunt with.

I imagine the suppliers are using them all themselves.

Federal/CCI/winchester/remington are all probably using them as fast as they can make/get them for loaded ammo. Profit margin would certainly be higher on loaded ammo i would think and if you've got orders on the books and still coming in for it, why not make it?

what about primers?
small arms primers seemed to have vanished on the retail market...

Back when the run started, I went and bought everything that I could find. Primers, bullets and powder.

I think I have right around 8000 small pistol primers and 2000-3000 bullets.
4000 small rifle and 4000 small rifle magnum primers.

don't have as much large pistol or rifle but enough to get buy.

Really glad I did now.

I've bought several boxes in the last few months, always picking up a box or two when I run across it.

Impossible to find. My 2 sources have been out. I have a 1000 srp and 1000 srmp I hoarded.

Academy in Katy and my local gun range have plenty .308. It’s expensive but available.

I mean there is a frick ton of .308 available

If you want to spend over $1 a round you can get as much as you want

Midway has Underwood in stock

Ain’t cheap but it’s in stock

Good job. Use a 120 gr Nosler Ballistic Tip, Sierra spire point, Speer Gold Dot or 125 gr Nosler Partition and whitetail deer won't stand a chance.
