    Ammunition shortage

    My son owns his own trucking business(he owns his tractor and contracts to a freight hauler). He is really busy and does real well financially. He told me that the new computerized log books and drug testing has really depleted the driver pool. There is a shortage of drivers for sure.

    I load exactly the way Jim does it. I too have a Chargemaster. It is really great.

    I Found A OOP's Today

    Many years ago when I started reloading, a couple of friends and I were trying to work up a 12 ga 2 3/4" magnum waterfowl load. We played around with powders and wads and found something we thought was the one. We took off for a weekend of duck hunting at the Salton Sea's Wister Waterfowl...

    I Found A OOP's Today

    I found a round of 30-06 that way on some reloads my Dad loaded. I only pulled a few bullets to weight the powder and find out what he had for a load. When I found the one that was about 1/2 full, I quit pulling bullets. I weighed the rest of the ammo (50 rounds as I remember) and found 4 more...

    Hunting CO?

    I definitely agree with Jim, especially the 4 rifle season options. Lots of public land and really pretty easy to access some really great hunting areas. Sure the really famous units are hard to draw, but Colorado manages them that way. If you do your research and get boots on the ground in...

    As long as you don't ship the part that has the serial number on it.

    Y ou could do it that way. Our FFL at the show is doing some that way, but it does cost extra.

    Gun Shows

    The dealer/FFL holder at our show did not want to hold them for sure. I lost one sale to a guy in Moab because he didn't want to come back a week later to pick up the gun. I checked several website this morning for information about the background check and there did not seem to be any changes...

    Gun Shows

    Guns Shows get a lot of bad press and criticism in the media. Every state has their own rules. My local shooting club here in SW Colorado puts on an annual gun show as a way to raise money to operate our club. This last weekend we held our 2021 show. It was a huge success and the club made over...

    Ammunition shortage

    I have had Amblyopia (Lazy Eye) in my right eye since childhood. Wore glasses for awhile as a child and after it didn't help, quit wearing them. As an oldster, my good eye aged and I had to wear them again. Started wearing contacts about 10 years ago and absolutely love them. Wear them 24/7...

    Ammunition shortage

    I still have plenty for my own needs. I have cut back my shooting too, but because of some other problems, not supply. Found out a week ago that I have a cataract in my one good eye. Going to have it fixed asap, but can't see well enough to shoot, everything pretty fuzzy. I thought I just needed...

    Ammunition shortage

    All in all, a very good gun show. We had more attendance that ever. This was the 15th one our club has done and we might do another in August. I personally did well. Sold a lot of stuff I wasn't using anymore and didn't need.

    Ammunition shortage

    I too, was short of small pistol as I shoot a lot more .38's than I thought when I bought my last primers. I did do a trade at the show for some small pistol primers. I will be set for awhile now.

    Ammunition shortage

    The only problem I saw was an extended wait for background checks. It looks like it could be 5 to 7 days. Definately a hardship for those who traveled longer distances to come to the show. A local dealer is doing all the checks and if a buyer has not cleared by the end of the show, the guns...

    Ammunition shortage

    I dropped my price on primers, I just couldn't sell them at $150.00 knowing what I paid for them. I sold them for !00.00 per brick . but kept the posted price at 150.00 to keep the other dealers from buying them and reselling them later for more. Sold them to shooters not dealers. I still made a...
