    I will definitely be buying on the dips if there are any. Honestly have not bought ammo in a year or so.

    No it's not the ammo prices keeping me from shooting but it's the lack of places to shoot. Looking for somewhere in Chesco to shoot. Anybody?

    Yes. I don't shoot nearly as much now. Been burning through .22lr quite a bit as I have more than I'll ever know what to do with. The other calibers are checking function/zero until my backorders come in. Then it'll be back to normal. I used to think my stockpile was good to go until this year happened. Now I know I need to double or even triple it to feel comfortable shooting at the pace I normally do. The wife will love that.

    I have a few rounds for my various calibers and have cranked up the loading press to roll my own for target shooting... I may be shooting more rather than less----retired and shoot about 9am on the week days; pretty much have the range to myself.
    I have more than enough 22s to last until I am worm food.

    As of now home schooling has affected my shooting habits more then ammo prices. I suppose one day they will effect me too.

    Been in quarantine for 10 days, figured I*d stop in to see if this was being discussed.

    Nope, because after being ridiculed here by members including a moderator in the past, just this last week I cranked out 1000 124gr 9mms at a whopping cost of $5 a box and 1000 rnds of 55gr .223 at a cost of under .10 a round from bullets I bought on a sellout of a gun shop years back at a an outrageous cost of .03 ea.

    Today is my last day at home and tomorrow the S&W Performance Center M&P CORE is getting a workout.

    One day maybe guys will learn that at least knowing how to reload and that picking up a few supplies when costs are at giveaway prices is not to be laughed at or ridiculed.

    Thanks for the realization that I wasn*t the stupid one every time someone here thought it was a joke to express how beneficial it is for a gun owner to know how to reload.

    Sweet sweet ammo, I got lots.

    Sorry to hear about you being ridiculed for reloading. I too am a big time reloader, sure is nice to have the ability to shoot without running "low on ammo "

    Amen.

    And those that demean others for "wasting time" reloading 9mm..... HA!

    The joke is now on the other foot!
