It’s worse than last year. Can’t even find shotgun shells hardly anywhere.

I’ve tried over 15 stores looking for 7mm-08 and nobody has any. This shite is ridiculous

Opening day of dove is less than a month away. Bad time to be looking for shells. I got mine last Spring when all the turkey shot was sold out but the 7.5's were plentiful.

Powder and bullets are easier to find now.

Primers, forget about it. No one has them nor can they tell you when they will be getting any.

If you are killing those bastards, I might need to donate some shells. Kill. Them. All.

I do know a ranch manager where I hunted one time said he used to use those turds eating the fish in his tanks to sight in his varmint rifles. Said a .220 Swift would turn them into a cloud of feathers. I liked him.

Just recently bought a thousand rounds online for .50 cents a round.


Do you really think that's enough? You can't really put a price on freedom.

Also, what was the shipping on that? The stuff I've bought online kills you on the shipping.
