Title: Small wall of ammo...
Post by: mudhen on March 11, 2013, 12:39:31 PM
Not really hoarding, just got everything together in one place  :)

Coupla stupid thoughts on my part:

I like H-13, but for $6 per shell, it would be nice to have the boxes at least hold up while being shipped to Able's Ammo to me  :)

I shot Win XRD for many years, liked it, seemed to hit pretty hard, pattern ok, at $4 per shell, it might stay in the game for me.  Every place I have been lately has lots on hand.  Get a free Thermacell with the box I got Saturday, but I have to pay for shipping...

All this being said, I'll getting the lead stuff ready in case tungsten prices keep increasing...

I share the sickness as well.   ;D  I have enough ammo for the rest of this life and then some.  Yet, I still won't pass up a deal on 3.5 Hevi-6's or 3.5 XR 6's.

IF... I was going to stock up on ammunition, hypothetically speaking of course, I would have a locked metal strong box 32" long, 24" wide, and 20" tall and it would be stocked full of every form of ammunition I consider necessary.  But of course I have no need for that.  I only need to have the couple of shells on hand for my next hunting trip.  Nothing more.  In fact, often I have no shells on hand and just take a slingshot with me.
