Russian ammo banned

[DoggyDaddy]

doesn't mean that the State Dept. isn't smart enough (unfortunately) to figure it out

You have way more confidence in them than I do. This is one case where their ineptitude could play out in our favor for a change.

It's back up now, but prices have jumped a bunch.

I suspect the wholesalers and retailers that had it in stock or available on-line, pulled it to adjust pricing.

Took the leap and ordered some just now. This chasing ammo crap is getting old.

People are buying Russian steel case even when non Russian brass case ammo is cheaper. I find that crazy.

That is crazy...I haven't seen any Russian brass available for a few days. The price was normal places I'd looked.

Was at Rural king they had brass case 9mm IIRC S&B or Geco can't remember right now and some Tula 9mm steel case. The brass case ammo was $25 a box and the steel case was $27 a box and people were buying the tula up.

Maybe the steel case will hold some magical 'collector value' in 10 years
...... I've seen stranger things happen in my life !

Your standard of living is being reduced, if you shoot, if you drive, if you eat, etc. Next will come the higher taxes.

Maybe somebody's economy is getting better, but it sure isn't mine.

I think Jeff Baalzebub Bezos is doing OK

You are correct sir. The NWO is to make ammo so expensive that only the well to do will be able to buy it. We may own guns, but not be able to use them.

Well it looks like it wont be long and my getting stuck steel cases out of others rifles will be almost nonexistent

That brass stuff isn't Russian. Geco is owned by RUAG in Switzerland, and has been made in Germany, Hungary, and other EU states. S&B is Czech. Then you have some Serbian options like PPU and Bolom. All make brass 7.62x39, but none are Russian.

Wait, I just reread your post I quoted and caught the "none." Guessing you meant "non" Russian?

Some of the brass case is Berdan primed with corrosive primers... Six of one, half dozen of the other...

Haha these freakin' auto corrects. I read my drafts three or four times before each post and STILL miss a word my phone "corrects" about 50% of the time

Anyways, didn't mean to misquote you. At least we can cheers to all the other nations still producing x39, and all those others with the tooling already in place who just need the green light to restart production.
