Redumbo

I sold a box of 143 ELD-X bullets on GB last weekend for $180. Ended up the guy was local (same zip code). When I asked what he was loading, he told me 6.5CM. He had the dies and brass, but no primers or powder. I felt so bad selling a $40 box of bullets for that much, I gave the guy a pound of RL26 and a 100 CCI LR primers. I was still ahead $90 based on my costs and GB fees.

Now you tell me RL26 was going for $200 per pound and primers $25 per hundred. :)
 
Wow. Sitting here with 9 lbs of Retumbo I don't want to sell, it is ridiculous to think that I could make possibly $1,600 or more off what I paid 7 months ago. The only reason powder is this expensive is people's "urgency" to buy right now. If everyone laid off buying for ONE month, then went back to "normal" purchasing procedures, this shortage would be gone. It is simply sad to see a 700% or more mark up on these products. It is simply shameful.

You're a Patriot and a brother. I'm guessing you're also a Christian. Believe me Heaven sees and will give you favor.
