RANT [ON] OFF

You goons are stashing up the .22wmr ammo too? All of the internets are sold out of good hunting .22 magnum bullets.

Knock the fort down, put the cushions back on the couch, take the foil helmet off, and quit piling up shite I need in your closet. The artificial panic you idiots started has completely ruined the ammo market for normal people who use bullets for good American hobbies like trapping and hunting.

Who in the cornbread frick decided that .22lr needed to be hoarded anyone? One dumbass decided he needed to buy .22 bullets out of panic, another dumbass saw him do it, and next thing you know masses of dumbasses are buying mountains of cheap arse junk ammo for no reason other than everybody else is doing it. Stick to hoarding TWO TWO THREE and FIVE FIVE SIX ammo for your shitty useless AR's. It's much more tactical and cool anyway.

My old man can't find .35 remington. 35 frickING REMINGTON!!! WHO THE frick HOARDS 35 REMINGTON???? WHAT IN THE HOLY HELL IS YOUR TACTICAL arse DOING WITH ARCHAIC 200 GRAIN COW KILLERS???????????????

So go sit on your mountain of bullets and read this post and laugh your ignorant market fricking up head off. One day you'll find something more important to worry about than how many .22 bullets you can shove in your closet because everybody else is doing it.

So to all of you bullet hoarders, frick off.

Not at all sincerely,
Downshift

I've been able to buy bullets just fine. Got a shipment of 2000 124gr flat-point 9mm bullets about a month ago.

I haven't been able to find many jacketed .224" bullets though. There's definitely a shortage there. The plight of being a handloader!

the quarterly Downshift ammo rant.

If you can't find bullets, this is one of my favorite sites:

Xtreme Bullets

They were running free shipping on plated pistol bullets the other day. Reasonable prices.

Just realized you're talking about cartridges and not just bullets. Here's a diagram for you:

Kind of a dying cartridge. That one has been scarce up here for a while now. One of my co-workers was talking about trying to find some and having me reload some empty brass he's saved. Not a high-demand cartridge and the manufactures responded by cutting back production to save materials for more popular ones.

That's another thing.

RANT [ON] OFF

All of you tactical bastards are screwing up the gun world. Now I can't type the word clip becuase "AHHHH you dumbass it's a magazine!!!!" or bullet because "AHHHH you dumbass it's a cartridge HAHAHA SO STUPID DONT KNOW GUNS HAAAA!!!!" You know what I'm talking about. I can't go in a gun store without some frickwad who was standing in the back lying to his dumb gun store buddy about shooting a 15' alligator coming trying to "help" me by telling me what I want. That guy can also frick off. I bet he has so many .22 bullets in his closet that his fat wife had to move all of her shoes into the kitchen cabinets. Keep your sorry arse worthless opinion to yourself until I ask for it. Boy oh boy, you sure know the difference in a clip and a magazine though.

Got a grand of 75gr OTM's. Need to spend less time making crappy YouTube clips and more time scouring the WTS pages on the interwebs...

I've Ben building a nice little store of bullets because at my gun club very few people pick up their spent brass and I've started reloading. I've got over 1k of 9mm and .45 just from reloads. Also have been reloading .223/5.56 and have around 500 or more of those in reloads. Swage tool is awesome.

Can't buy normal shite because production lines are working double shifts churning out .22, .223, .308, and other hoard-friendly rounds.
