    Or buy what you need and no more so that there is some for the next person. That way the shortage can come to an end quicker and the prices can come back down to a reasonable level.

    Agreed. Just giving them a place to start.

    Crazy times. Ammunition thread.

    Not to lead you to a different site (if it is not allowed please remove this post), but Reddit has a fantastic reloading thread (r/reloading) that has a beginners guide/faq that has a ton of suggestions for price range options from dirt cheap to expensive as well as manual suggestions and other...

    Kubota discontinuing the bx series???

    Maybe they meant that it is a new bx series. Like the L01 replaced the L00. So the one that you wanted to place an order for you can't do anymore because of the new series release being too close to rollout but they don't quite know what all is going to be in the new series? I doubt they'd get...

    Crazy times. Ammunition thread.

    Good news is I just got back from Walmart and they had about 1500 rounds of 12 ga. and a box of 7.62x51. So while these are very low amounts it beats what it was like last week where there wasn't anything. I only picked up 200 of the 12 ga though because that's what I needed and I'm not going to...

    the strip caps use the same compound that primer uses just in much smaller amounts. I've seen it be used as an alternative for mixing your own if you were going to try and reload rimfire cartridges. However, it is volatile and does not take much to ignite the stuff so probably just a better idea...

    Crazy times. Ammunition thread.

    My Walmart pulled ammo and guns for a month or so but they have gone back to selling it again. Just none of the ammo stays in stock long enough for normal people to get it. By normal I mean the ones who don't line up outside the door at 4 am to buy it. If I'm not hunting, normally I just plink...

    Crazy times. Ammunition thread.

    The factories are running full tilt and the stores are stocking as fast as they are getting ammo. I don't see any reports that government agencies are buying significantly more ammo than usual either (I just did a quick and dirty search so I could be wrong). Seems to me that we have hit an...

    Crazy times. Ammunition thread.

    After seeing the spike in ammo I recently looked into reloading to see if it was a viable alternative right now. I looked at a Hornady progressive turret that was listed for like 530 bucks at Bass Pro (but it was out of stock) and so I looked elsewhere on the internet and the exact same model...

    Crazy times. Ammunition thread.

    There are only 5 or so states that make it difficult to get ammo online. However, that doesn't stop stores from being 100% sold out. I have been looking for .22 lr and it is insane. Walmart, Bass Pro, Cabela's, Scheels, the local sports store, all the local gun stores shelves are completely...

    To answer your question. Yes you can plug the usb port into your Dell and it will send power to the phone without messing up the phone or the computer. If you aren't getting any charge your may have buildup in the port from pocket lint, dust, etc. There are guides online of how to safely clean...

    Concrete Workbench top?

    Concrete doesn't do well when suspended in air for the most part especially with shock loads. A table/benchtop act in tension when loaded both wood and metal excel in tension due to their grain structures. Even though they don't excel in compression by the time the load is transferred through...

    Are you going to.....

    I have not once in my memory stubbed my toe while wearing shoes and walking around. Also the difference between bumping into a cabinet and kicking a coffee table with your toe is rather stark. If you don't believe me try running into a wall or a cabinet and then try, at walking pace, kicking...

    Just sayin' it wasn't caused by anything in the vaccine but a condition (overactive vagal response) that she has had her whole life. Which means that she can faint from pin pricks or even stubbing her toe.

    Are you going to.....

    Look I Googled Chattanooga Nurse Dies from Vaccine and went through 10 pages of results. Literally every single one said the claim was false. Even one from Saudi Arabia and South Africa, neither of whom care about a nurse on the other side of the world. In an industry that is all about being...

    Why No Seat Belt Interlock?

    There are situations in which a non foldable ROPs is a larger safety hazard. Low clearance situations could cause the ROPs to break off a tree limb or something similar onto the operator. Safety interlocks aren't there to save dumb people. They are there to save a smart person making a stupid...

    Quick Dumb Car Question

    It is a vertical pull unlock and as far as I can tell the plastic looks to be in place and the lock in the fully vertical position with the unlock fully up as well. I might just throw a whole can of PB Blaster on the mechanism tonight and wrench on it in the morning. Agreed! its almost like...

    John deere 7130 stuck in 4wd? Off topic?

    No problem, and friendly reminder to remember to clean the connector before shoving it back together! Maybe some contact cleaner? I'd hate for you to have to try and splice and solder a new connection on in that cramped space.
