great advice. Now if I could only put it to good use in the market.
I tell myself when to sell all the time but I never seem to do it!!

YOUR RIGHT ON TARGET, WITH ONE WORD. OBAMA. ALSO BETTER KNOWN AS (GUN CONTROL). IT AIN'T MUCH OF A GUN IF IT AIN'T GOT BULLETS.

The Denton gun show had (has) tons of ammo and reloading components. Winchester 45acp fmj was $49/100 round box. That's only 1 cent per round more than Cabela's and you don't have to pay tax. Plus, you can buy as much as you want. What was high was the handgun reloads. Why would you pay $20 for lead SWC reloads when you can buy factory fmj for $24.50?

Also saw new ARs for $799. Several SKS for under $300. I screwed up on a single point sling for my AR though. SOG had them for $80. Another guy had Promag for $50 (including adapter). Then I come home and see that Sportsman's Guide has the same sling for $25. Probably about $10 shipping so I overpaid by about $15 I guess. First mistake I made all year!



Practice doesn’t make perfect.
Practice makes permanent.

I was in Cheaper Than Dirt in Ft Worth today and they had every caliber you could want... But they should rename the place "Higher then Hell". The Hornady .45 ACP I was shopping for was $30 for a 20 box.




CTD is the last place I would ever buy ammo! There prices are insane.

I think the manufactures are playing the Obama game with us. That is the reason there is no 22 ammo-not enough money in it. They can make much more on 9mm, 40, 45 and the rifle ammo. If you can find a store that has Federal, Rem, Win. Hornady, take a look at the difference in price of the cheap stuff that each make. Fed blue box is far the cheapest. So why can Fed make 30-06, 243, 308, 7-08, 270,280 for 18-20$ per 20 and rem,win cost 26-30$ per 20. Something smells!!!!!
