Lots of powder dropping but where are the bullets? I've been trying to find 178 grain ELD-X and some Berger's and nothing. Anyone finding any bullets online? I've been checking to no avail.

I don't shoot those. Is that a 30 cal bullet? Let me know and I'll add those to my list of other forum members' items. If I find them somewhere I'll send you a link.

Well, you're in great company. I have 6 more LRH forum members already looking for the exact same things. The 178gr has been popping up on Scheels and Precision although they never last more than maybe 15 minutes.
Hornady and Berger products are stating to hit here locally we even have powder on the shelf, and not just the obscure stuff the (good stuff)…. Primers are another thing tho!

Hornady bullets showing up and some Nosler at stores around here.
I wished I knew also, it's hard for me to believe people are hoarding them faster than they can be made. I contacted Nosler by email and they told me they're running 6 days a week, 24 hour days, and yet it's only been the last 2-3 weeks that I actually found some 180 Accubond. I bought what I needed and some for my son in law and left more for other people. If hoarding is the problem then people need to buy what they need and let other people get some or we're never going to be able to look them up at our favorite place and buy them.

I was guilty of this but I've stopped the practice of giving everyone a heads up when products come available on forums and Facebook. It's creates a hoarding rush.

Good to know!
They are coming, factory ammo is getting them first.
Keep watching MidSouth, I think they have a notification system.
MidSouth just filled my October back order of 6.5mm ELDMs. I knew they were out of stock when I ordered. I'll add that they charged me the order price, not today's prices. I am sure they took a hit, I fully expected to have to pay more or have my back order cancelled long ago. They certainly kept a customer.
