The current sad state of affairs if bad whether or not you reload. I get you reloaders, many of you, have lots of ammo, so do some of us who don't reload. I can't even move the case mine is in.
Not sure I follow. I reload only for those calibers I cannot find commercial ammunition for. Anything else, I stand in line at the counter for or bulk up in the good times. Which I do and did. I do not have copious amounts of anything (well, I have a lifetime supply of .22 ) but I have enough to get through this. I was not in any way bragging, I am not a big time reloader, especially for bulk type and pistol calibers. I reload .30-30, .45-70, .45LC, .22 Hornet, .270 Winchester and I am now venturing into .44 Magnum (for rifle). As to "sad state of affairs" I was referring to the empty shelves and the cold weather, both are pushing me into the reloading bench, for good or bad. I have three muzzleloaders to feed also and a fleet of various air rifles. I note that suddenly supplies for both have begun to disappear.
