Shell shocked!

Postby missed mallards » Thu Aug 12, 2021 9:08 pm

No pun intended. But geez!

Dove shells.

1) they aren’t in every store and are kind of hard to find. Specifically if you shoot one brand and shell combo.

2) when u do find them, holy cow! Up at least 35% from previous years. Wish my income would have increased 35%! If you like sub gauges it takes it to a whole new level!

Finally can get rifle ammo and now can’t find shotgun shells. I guess one way to take guns from the people is to make to where it’s of no value to own the gun cause u can’t afford to make it go boom!
If I don't do it, I ain't gettin nun.......So i'm doing it

Yeah shells aren’t the only thing. Lumber , steel, aluminum, etc.

Outboards are bringing over msrp. Called Brookhaven Honda Wednesday about getting a price on a new four wheeler and said they “may” have some in January. Everything is presold until then so I guess they are getting just about whatever they want for them. I think I will just wait and see if things will ever settle out since I have a few older ones and a ranger that still run good.

went to wally world yesterday and saw very few shot shells on the shelf. There were like 6 boxes of random 28ga and I got the only 4 boxes of Remington 16ga lead #6s they had. $9 something a box. But I haven't see the Remington STS clays loads I like to shoot in a year. I also found a deal online a few weeks ago for the "bucket of bullets" with 1400 count of 22lr for .10 cents a round. That was as close to a normal price as I have seen in over a year so I grabbed 2 of them also.

And you are right about steel. Work is putting an addition on the building, It took 8 months to get the steel to build it. Vehicles, UTVs, outboards, or anything with a motor is going above MSRP these days. It's insane.
