I just shot 60 rounds of the FEd Eagle FMJ to sight in and break in my new 6.8 today and they were all accurate and no FTF's. I only shot 6 or 7 rounds of the SST's to make sure they are keeping the same POI and they were also very accurate.

I purchased 5 boxes of PSA when they were like 9 bucks a box. Maybe it was just my lot or something. Not sure why they don't eject properly. Its like they just aren't creating enough pressure to eject. Pop in a different mag with another brand and no problem. I wish they cycled better bc they are cheap fun.

Been buying what I can, when I can. Month by month. Over 8 years, it really adds up. No issues here. There will ALWAYS be rushes, though. Folks never learn. It's entertaining to read on here those that didn't learn and didn't prepare gripe about how somehow they got left out, left behind, blah blah blah. Wait 'till it's food and water, not ammo and components. Have your house in order and PAY ATTENTION TO CURRENT EVENTS. No one else's responsibility but the person in the mirror.
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers

It started the day they announced Obamas election in 2008. I suspect it will again this time. The every time she appoints a new liberal judge. We will see more runs in the next fours years if she does win than we saw in eight with Obama. This time the factories are gearing up and starting to stack in some guns. If they can sort of keep up with demand the believe they can hold down the gouging.

Guns being taken away?
Not likely in our lifetime.
Ammunition being taken away?
Not likely in our lifetime.
RELOADING SUPPLIES STOPPED BECAUSE THEY COULD BE USED FOR MAKING BOMBS?
EXTREMELY likely very soon.
^ ^ ^ This one worries me the most.

Creedmoor, you do know that guns have already been taken away right? As far as I know, there are still boxes and boxes of guns in New Orleans that were confiscated during martial law during Katrina that sit rusting that were never and never will be returned to their rightful and lawful owners. The city was ordered to return them in 2008 but only did so if residents could provide proof of ownership. A lot of that proof was lost during Katrina. The guns should never have been confiscated to begin with.
The first step in confiscation is registration. Last week Kerrey signed the UN small arms treaty that requires signatory nations to institute registration programs. Now this law will never pass the current Senate but you are always only one election, one supreme court justice, or one national emergency away from continued progress down the wrong path.

Yes, I'm well aware of that happening. I was referring to nationwide events. But since you brought it up, it is definitely an example of what can happen.

Also, we had Scalia and a 5-4 Supreme Court. We don't have that now. If that 5-4 is swapped in the other direction, even standing guard won't work. There is no overturning an out of control Supreme Court. None. Check Mate. Game and freedom's gone, over - done with. Nope. Because we were worried and kept a close eye on our 2nd amendment he wasn't able to do much. The second we let our guard down, watch out. Earl, you hit the nail on the head. Trump is probably going to lose some senate & house seats because of his ego, he had a real good chance to win till all the chit has been dug up
hold on Newt, we got a runaway

I have enough reloading stuff to last way beyond my lifetime.
