Russian ammo banned

[STEEL CORE]

My luck, back when I had a range membership in Indy, I couldn't use Wolf or Tula or Fed aluminum cased on that range.
Now that I can at the ranges in Avon, its G O N E.

Meh. I maybe agree in principle but the entire rest of our economy is entirely built on cheap Chinese crap so it seems completely dumb to me that we can't get Chinese ammo, too.

Peddling cheap chinese crap so w-mart and amazon can get fat while bidet extends unemployment comp by $300/wk (out pricing would be employers) and extending the rent moratorium (driving landlords to bankruptcy) isn't resetting the economy. I doubt that even the actual goal.
Given the way the CCP kung-flu'd the world, the ban ought to extend to "chinese everything"
The difference between CCP and putin's russia is only a matter of degree

I keep moving from begrudging acceptance back to pissed off. Not quite ready to move on from this.
Should have been expecting it when the jerk got elected.

Yeah, I thought the Russia ammo ban would have come immediately. I was surprised when it didn't. You know, Russia collusion for Trump and all that...

SGAmmo is now showing no 7.62x39 ammo whatsoever.

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

Looks like it's gone up to 5.56 prices.

Wow - I cannot imagine what would happen to ammo prices if all the Russian ammo disappeared. The calibers I load aren't really commonly made by Russian manufacturers, but this could have a huge impact on several of the most popular rifle calibers.

I picked up 10 boxes of Wolf 7.62x39 at Dunhams in Richmond yesterday, it was even on 'sale' at 9.99 down from 11.99.

I'm seriously tempted to see if I can swap a case or two of Wolf x39, which I paid $0.17/rd for, for an equal quantity of brass 5.56.

In a couple weeks that is a good likelihood!!!

Maybe a Cheaper than Dirt maneuver?

No different than if you go to Silvertowne to buy silver after spot price jumps up by $10...

I watched War Dogs tonight. Is that actually based on true events? Or very loosely based Hollywood style of an event but with 95% of the truth bent to a viewpoint of theirs?

Just a heads up, I just picked up 400 more rounds of 7.62x39 at the local rural king (Laporte) they had a decent amount left $7.99 a box, $170 and some change out the door, not the cheapest but not the worst.
