The powders I use will be constrained and expensive in the coming year.
Um ... tell me something I didn't know.
Good thing I have enough Retumbo and H1000 to last me until we're all shooting "Ray Guns".
Remember ... it's not actually "Hoarding" if you really really want lots of it.

The people that we give our business to, are now giving us the business big time.
I believe its all about profit and the bottom line. With the increased prices they can sell less and make more profit.
They have us by the short hairs, we either pay their price or go without.
Don't forget Biden said if we can't take the guns we will take the ammo !!!

Holy crap...I'd just stop reloading at that point. A tray of 100 is about 8-10 bucks here.

I bought thousands of primers several years ago when they were still cheap. So I'm using them up as we speak. I bought lots of bricks S&B at $33/brick,... and 210m/215m for $ 50/brick. Hence why I'm still reloading.
I still have lots of out of production projectiles like the 105 A-max.... I have several boxes of Hornady BTHP Match I got for $ 24 per box. and 1,000 Sierra 210 SMK I got for $300 years go. and so on.
I just saw BR-2‘s for $16 a sleeve…..at my local ace hardware yesterday….
and reloader 16 for $500 for an 8lb jug, retumbo was $399 for an 8lb jug……..

just so you know Br-2’s are std large rifle primers that are more consistent when testing but all the components are the same. Br4’s however are different than 400’s and 450’s
I worked there from 09-15

I can’t answer that anymore, I left there in 15, at the time I had the prints for all the primers, I believe the cups and anvils were the same as 450’s but the priming mix was different but don’t quote me on that. I still have friends out there, it’s not open information but I might be able to get it.

Same here in Australia. The only reason I reload now is to get the ammo I want. Factory ammo in many cases is now cheaper. When I've burnt through all my small pistol primers I'll be shooting factory only. Can't get pistol powder anyway.
Oh Lordy, what is to come here yet.
