Ok. So you know I built a 6.5 Grendel AR. As this is one of the lesser known rounds, the ammo makers have been dragging their feet. I have found them on the shelf only once. And they were not what I wanted.
My lgs found me a couple boxes. Cool. I have reloaded about 150 with components I scrounged up. Not the best bullet, powder or primer. I did buy good brass.
So I am sitting on less than 200 rounds. Not cool. I will buy as I can. And acquire more reloading components that are hopefully standard. I want a thousand of these puppies waiting for me.
After hearing about the Russian ammo ban, crap. Everything is going to hell again.
I will not give up. I am an American!

Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.

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.......

I prefer Norma more than normal.

Re: Hard to find ammo
I like it too but getting harder to find. I think I can get Eley more often than TAC.

Re: Hard to find ammo
During the shortage before the last one I bought several cases of Norma, SK and RWS. I complained about the price at the time but it seems cheap now.Shakey Jake wrote: ↑Tue Aug 31, 2021 7:47 pmI like it too but getting harder to find. I think I can get Eley more often than TAC.

I’ll keep an eye out for the 6.5. I have to admit I had to look it up.
