Back when we had that first shortage, I tried to warn shooters to stock up. Very few listened.
Then when this last just began, I tried to tell them that the price of T7 was going to skyrocket too. Very few listened.
At least LRMP's are coming back.
This doesn't include the case under the bench........

Now there is a prudent man!
I hear you. I have a fairly large supply of various powders, primers, bullets, lead shot, shotgun wads, etc, etc, and way back when things were relatively cheap, I spoke with a lot of local shooters and warned the day was coming when prices would be unbelievably high, at least for then, and almost no one listened . Many thought I was nutz! Every time I went into sporting goods stores, Wal Mart, etc, etc, I purchased a lot of clearance sales, after season sales, then yard sales, estate sales, the various thrifty magazines, etc, etc.
Just a "few" examples are the "cases" of clearance 12 gauge Federal Gold Medal shotshells I purchased at a couple of Wal Mart stores for $5 per box. At that time and locally, no one around was purchasing those, and after some time, the manager wanted them gone. Similar with numerous 10rd boxes of various brands of heavy turkey loads, 2-3/4 and 3", well after season close. I grabbed all they had for $3-$4 per box. And then there were several canisters of Pyrodex and a few #'s of BP I found on clearance.
