Ammo supply good in your ‘hood?

Dang, would love to find some 357 for those prices!

[GFK]

I seen .357 FMJ and SWC on the floor. When I ask the clerk to check in the back for .38 Special +P, he said that he did not see any. But, asked if I had tried a lighter grained .357 that the felt recoil may be less. I said that I had been shooting .357 158 grains, when I did shoot .357s in it. Then, he went and got some Hornady 130 grains. I think that it was about $25 or so. I thought about. But, I have a few boxes of Hornary. Plus, I would like for my wife to try a few practice rounds, before loading with .357 130 grains. I am thinking that the felt recoil will not be that much of a difference, if any. Yet, I may give it a try.

Well it was a rainy day and not a lot to do, so I stopped by the local Academy store.

Pretty decent stock and had an end shelf full of shotgun shells, 12, 20, & 28 ga.
No 410's.
Then I stopped at one of the WW's.

I haven't been buying much. but the prices have finally driven me to learn to reload.

38's are nearly 40 bucks
357 run in the 50's and
45colt runs about 55 to 70.

9mm is 18 to 22 ish.
45 runs about 35 to 40
40 s&W runs around 25

10mm I have seen from 35 to 60

22lr runs on average 6 to 10 bucks per 50, depending on type. high end stuff has doubled. RWS SK, Laupua all well into the mid 20's

[Vaquero]

Ds, I've just been picking up the 22's, and mostly the standard vel., no CF stuff, I reload for ALL those that I own, and a couple more.

Those CCI standard are $4.83/50, the Aquila were $4.49/50, and the Stingers were the pricey ones,
but I want to try them so I bought 2 @ $9.99/50.

Good to see some supplies making it to the shelves again.

Two boxes of 357magnum 158 grain jsp Federal American Eagle for $68.00 today.

[Vaquero]

So is that 2 boxes for $68, nice...
or two boxes @ $68 ea?
I'm thinking the later.

Probably the latter. I will not pay that price! If for two boxes...bring it on!

[RanchRoper]

Still lots of primers here.

That's a great price compared to what it was but kind of sad that we are saying $34 for a box of .357 is a great deal when before the shortage I would occasionally see it on sale locally for around $20 a box.

Yeah, it’s pretty amazing how our expectations have changed. I get a kick out of some items I see for sale on our local trader page. For instance yesterday a guy listed a box of .410 AA target loads for $20 that had the original price of $6.99 written in it. I did just buy a box at a retail store and paid $13.99 for the exact same ammo. And was “happy” to do it.

I was at the Club's gun range today, watching young people shoot AR-15s. The smell of gun smoke made me think about shooting. So, I stopped at the LGS today. Found some Remington 38 Special +P 158 grain LHP @ $1.10 a round, which is more than I wanted to pay. Yet, the clerk did find some, based on my inquiry (I assume). Therefore, I picked up a couple of boxes, 20 rounds each and said thanks. While I was there, I picked up a box of 38 Special FMJ TulAmmo with 50 rounds @ $30; I have not seen or shot any before. But, I thought that I would try a box. From what I have read, they seem to be loaded a little hot for a 38 Special. I did see some .357 @ $38 for a box of 50; I don't recall the brand. I was not looking for any. However, it nice to know that a few boxes are available. For the most part, it was a good day.

Went to the range on Friday. Two box range use limit and one out the door, total 3 boxes of 357 magnum Federal jsp 158 grain $101.00

After dropping off Sir Henry i came to my daughters house in Naches Wash. We went to the local gun range and Ace Hardware store. I didnt see any primers but the powder and ammo supply was amazing. Ive not seen this much powder anywhere for a while. Its not very cheap at 45 to 50.00 a Lb but they had a good supply. The ammo they had was also not cheap but there was a good assortment
