Shell shocked!

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!

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.
