Reloading Components in Stock -- Running Topic

This may get me flamed, but I have to say it: I'm just not sure how helpful such posts are, especially in times of shortage.
There are those of us who do the work -- log onto our various supplier sites a few times a day to try to locate what we need. And yes, I bought one of these tubs of powder *because I was doing the work*. I'd prefer folk to do the work if they want to reap the rewards.
Sorry if all disagree but that's my opinion.

I do the same as you, always searching.
This post helped me immensely in boosting my stock of this powder, along with the IMR4166 I have I'm now well stocked in this burn speed.
 
So what's the verdict, continue to keep you guys updated on stock? Don't count on primers though, they go out in seconds. It's hard even for me. Trying to help out during the shortage that we are living through.
 
I agree with nakneker, it’s better the guys on forum get it before the guys buying then selling on GB for ridicules profits.
As a side note. I never bought powder and primers online, until this last shortage, usually Sheels or Runnings have what I need. What is the added hazmat/shipping cost for primers and powder? I assume the more you buy the better the total price per item is?

I will be one to disagree with you. I search the sites as I can but “I’m still doing the work “ also and just because it’s there doesn’t mean I have to buy it. If I don’t need it I will not buy it. If I can pass along some info I will and hope it helps someone else. It’s Just my opinion also...

Yes please! I saw your post while it was still in stock, but I did not buy it because I bought some 3 months ago and have plenty left. I felt it was the right thing to do to leave the powder for others less fortunate than me. I am looking for large rifle primers at the top of my list. These posts are very helpful and I am careful to leave what I absolutely don't need to others. I know that probably means I am a dope but I think we need to be respectful of others who are in worst shape than we are. You are performing a valuable service and I thank you for it.
 
I appreciate the responses guys. I will continue to post links of in-stock items if its okay with the admins. I help keep most of my club member's component stockpiles full, and I figured I would try and help out the forum members as well, as a thank you for all the great information and help I have received over the past couple of months.

$15 mas o menos. What I do appreciate about Midsouth, Grafs, etc., is that they have not jacked their prices during the shortage.

I appreciate it as well. Please keep it up. I can't check all the sites at once for all the different powders I may need.

So, checking here IS PART OF MY HOMEWORK ;) I clicked out of curiosity and it was still available when I looked earlier. I didn't need any so I didn't buy any. I am grateful that I would've been able to get some if I needed it.

If anyone needs any bulk hornady bullets.
Thanks fo lookin out.
 
Big thanks, ordered 62 grain FMJ 500 packs, 4 boxes and .452 250 grain XTP. The website could use some work but it’s basically pre Covid pricing and cheap shipping.
