Just left Simmons sporting goods in Bastrop, they have tons of ammo and a lot of reload supply’s coming in daily, they have a bunch of bullets and powder now along with dies and presses , bought 3 boxes of Federal Premium 300 win mag $64 a box .- 3 boxes of Barnes 180 grain in 308 $64 a box- 2 more boxes of Barnes 7 mm RUM and several boxes of buckshot and 22 ammo . Better buy it while we can.

Well some people don’t shoot the old single Barrell 410 and have to pay more that $3 a box.

Fed premium was 50 a box 10 yrs ago. 64 seems reasonable considering the price escalation of supplies

I bought ammo when it was affordable and plentiful
Failing to plan is planning to fail. Or in your case, paying through the nose for ammo.

I’ve got everything conceivable I need but for some reason didn’t buy enough .270 wsm and haven’t been able to find anything decent for it in forever. Anyone seen any soft tips in that anywhere lately?

Cheapest I found was about $2.79 a round on ammo seeker


I have a good amount of .223, 5.56, 7.62 x 39, and .22 and a fair amount of .30-06 and 9mm

What I need is .357 , some .30-30, 7.62x54R, and I’ll be forever getting any .270 wsm

Simmons sporting goods in Bastrop


Always amazed by their huge selection of hunting items.

Always frustrated by their terrible customer service.

I dont guess you've looked at 410 shell prices. Hell, you can't even find 410 shells
