[QUOTE="entoptics, post: 2022844, member: 104268"] Thanks for the replies. [USER=54383]@snox801[/USER] Thanks for the offer. I'd love to get a few more brass, but I suppose till I find some bullets, there's not much point yet. [USER=97793]@243winxb[/USER] Thanks for the link.

If I had bullets to go with them, I'd go ahead and pay, but with my luck, I'd buy the double price brass now, not get any bullets, then everything would be back in stock for half the price...
