A LGS here got about 100K in CCI SRP by mistake from their distributor (they don't carry reloading supplies). They were selling them for $65/brick initially. Then it jumped up to $75/brick. Now it is at $150/brick. I'll not be going back.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

That's just baldface gouging. :evil: Maybe the LGS will make a quick profit, but it leaves a bad taste and you lose customers long term.

Glad to help, buddy. Love that pic. Can't imagine my reaction to that.

I rarely ever buy a rifle, but when I do, it's a Henry.

Haven't done much on the bench lately, been doing other stuff. Still got 100 pcs Starline 45/70 brass to trim, size, clean, primer, flare.
That's where it'll end for now, no bullets. Dreading the trimming, anyway, my least fav. thing to do with loading.
I'll get it......eventually. LOL

I loaded 10 rounds of 223 with some 62 gr blems I got last summer.
They did well with some CFE, trying some LVR this time as I have 4 to 5 lbs of it.
Raining here this morn so I'll be shooting from the back deck, in a bit, :o ;)
Gonna give the neighbors time to rise and shine. :lol:

Haven't done a thing on the bench, in fact I am not even home. I am on the road working out of state for the next month. It sucks but I need the bucks, so I have to do this to to that !
