A question was raised on the Handloading forum that got me to pondering. A couple of years ago, I quit reloading 9mmP, 'cause I could buy Blazer ammo at a local discount sporting goods store for $3.88 a box. Now, the component prices are higher than that, brass not included. A couple of years ago, you could by Turk 8mm ammo at prices that made it cheap enough to consider using it for driveway gravel. No longer. Same way with Turkish Mausers, which were south of $50 for a M98. That got me to wondering....
What are we going to look back on in 2 - 5 years and say: "Man, I wish I'd have bought 10x more of that/those back in the fall of '07!" The only thing I can think of right now is .30-'06 ammo from ODCMP. Anybody else got any insights?
