Cooling my heels on reloading for a bit...

[sierracharlie338]

I'm ramping up my rifle shooting. Prepping for a couple hunts and workin on mechanics with others. Starting to see more components, except primers, so I won't be slowing down anytime soon.

but I'm reluctant to do any unnecessary testing or recreational shooting for the time being.

Same here. I've done load development, loaded some up based on those findings and the ammo sits in their respective boxes.....waiting. Used to shoot 2 or 3 times per week, but now I'll go 2 or 3 weeks without firing a shot (except at a groundhog, of course ).

Loading and shooting up old stock/oddball loads with the exception of hunting rounds.
Plenty of primers and powder but short of prefered bullets

I stopped loading 223 and am saving my small rifle primers for a Br build coming up.

switched my mag dumping to my AK which I can still buy pallets of Russian cat pee smelling Tula whenever I feel like it and it eats it up

I'm thinking I'll be loading more and shooting only to check dope throughout the year. I dont like what I see out there.

 

[Argon Glen]

I'm real good on powder and primers. I could use some brass and need bullets.

I'm setting pretty good right now. A few months back I sold one of the best rifles/scopes I had in order to stock up on components and shift my focus a little to pistol's. I ended up getting a 9mm, .357 Sig barrel, 40S&W and 10mm (no .45, yet) and have .380.
If they come for my guns, I'm gonna give'm the ammo first!

I use reloading as therapy and I've loaded everything I got waiting on some 9mm bullets. I was putting up ammo for retirement, so I have plenty of ammo but no therapy left lol. I ordered 20000 primers 2 years ago and they're all gone so I guess I have to find something else to do till I get some bullets

I'm in good shape but I have halted the rounds that I'm not using much. I'm only loading the stuff I'm shooting at that time. My concern is gonna be primers. i hope the election will begin to stabilize the "reloading drought"

 

[flyguy1]

I stocked up on ammo 2 years ago when it was cheap and should be set; inevitably after 2 terms the presidency turns over. If we get ACB on the SCOTUS much less to worry about. Packing the court won't likely be as easy as they think.

 

[P7M13]

Well stocked for years to come. Envious of those of you with the time to load and shoot.
Had thought, with these crazy times, thus would be the summer to get so many things done. Instead it has been one of the busiest and zero shooting or loading since June.

Every election lately we go through the same scare with everyone buying everything in sight, then after the election people cool down and ammo and reloading supplies begin to restock. Its the American way.

I'm ramping up as much as possible. So far, it's been a good year for me in the shooting/reloading/hunting department. And it's not over yet.
I'm also trying new components since availability is hit and miss. I won't let it slow me down.

I learned my lesson during obummer 1 and then again during obummer 2 and again after sandy hook school, I can be a slow learner sometimes, I will NEVER again get caught short

learn to be flexible in your recipes

and you may be able to trade less desirable components as well
