I just got notice from Powder Valley that 2 items I had on backorder are ready to ship if I still want them. It was 8 lbs of 5744 and Bullseye. These aren't listed on their website yet but I bet they just got a shipment in and they haven't updated yet. Usually when they update their site a number of items get added all at once so I'd be willing to bet later today they will have new stuff in stock. Based on my backorder I bet they will have new Alliant and Accurate powders available shortly.

Bought a thousand CCI small pistol primers for $42 at Sportsman’s Warehouse. They had LPP At the same price too but had a one brick limit. I keep coming across primers sporadically & I’m getting a good supply stocked back up slowly & not getting gouged.

Third Generation Shooting Supply

I just ordered 3 boxes of berger bullets and 5 one pound cfe 223 powder from these guys in Oklahoma, not sure how legit they are, his prices seem to good to be true, and they dont tell you the shipping and hazmat costs up front, I called and talked to them, they said they were not that high and I would be billed for them when the order ships, but they didn't waste time charging my CC for 293.00 dollars.

From what i got from talking to the guy, they would figure the shipping and hazmat fees later when the order was all put together and ready to ship.

The third generation shooters supply just billed my cc 34.79 for the hazmat fee and the shipping and handling, I think that is probably a reasonable amount, considering all the high prices now days.

They billed you initially for $293 and then later for the hazmat fee?

Shane Tuttle: Yes, later was the hazmat and shipping fees, kind of different I know, but these guys sound like there from the backwoods of Oklahoma.

It’s definitely odd but I’ve been billed separately by other companies as well however they were billed the same day . For whatever reason they did it separately . If I had to guess it would be that their computer program has their general shipping and handling at a lower cost than they want to charge right now so they bill it separately at a higher cost rather than rewriting or adjusting their program .

I thought Oklahoma had singing cowboys and cowgirls rather than a backwoods constituency.

Received my order from Third Generation Shooting supply yesterday from UPS, all was good, so really no issues with these guys, I would probably order from them again.

Bullets and brass are occasionally available at Sages Reloading Supply. Online sales only. Fast shipping and excellent customer service every time I have ordered. And they aren't gouging on prices. Today they had 9mm brass and extreme bullets. .223 bullets and brass are usually in stock too.

They are still in stock and it says limited to "10 pieces" per day . Well they are advertised as 1k count so does that mean limit 10k ? Doesn't sound much like a limit haha but $9k is way over my limit lol .

I don't really need they but I sure want some ,

Great news! Scheel's has their grand opening going on in my town. Ammo is fully stocked at average pricing. Plenty of small pistol and small rifle primers. Only $60/brick! By today's standards, that's low. I haven't seen that price in almost 2 years. Decent powder available and pricing was pretty decent. Plenty of press kits and related components, too.

Brownells has CCI BR primers currently, but the price is way off the wall.

Meaningless... unless you list the price.
