Stopped by Cabela's in Fort Worth on the way home from the range this morning. To my surprise, they had about 25-30 boxes of Remington .30 Carbine on the shelf. As I naturally knocked down the little old lady in front of me as I was diving toward the shelf, I saw the price - $27.99. hmmmm.... hesitation as I stomped on the old lady's stomach as I stepped back again.... It was $24.99 three weeks ago when I last checked the empty shelf. That must be what Capitalist call "supply and demand" (ok, I am practicing my soon to be government-issued to me Socialist attitude - it needs work). Anyway, a little math later, I realized that I can buy never-fired brass, FMJ bullets, primers and powder and still make it for $21.50 per box of 50. If I use old brass, that price goes down to $11.00 per box of 50. I choose to leave the boxes there in protest of higher prices caused by now-I-want-a-gun-since-I-voted-blue horders and the greedy ammunition manufacturers who are profiting off of this extreme supply and demand situation. (sorry, I just can't seem to get this mad-at-the-world-cause-I'm-really-a-socalist attitude down). Now I just need to get some more primers...

So there it is folks - Cabela's had it in stock as of an hour ago (11:30 Central).

P.S. to the guy who bought all the small rifle primers this morning, I have your finger prints and I am hiring tracking dogs....
