[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 269722, member: 2852"] Some items are certainly hard to get right now, especially anything to do with AR's, .223 and 9mm ammo, primers, magazines, and so on. But these are in increased demand only since November. SW has been out of them for years. I'm afraid they can't use the Obama excuse anymore. Last week, while I was in Phoenix, I stopped in at Bruno's shooters supply and he had no Fed215 primers but he had oodles of everything else. His brass bins were clear full (except for 300 ultra mag) and he had every model of scope he carries on hand. Powder was in good supply and I didn't see any gaps in his bullet box shelves. These are essential things for a company to have if they want to advertise themselves as a reloading center. And Bruno's is basically a hole in the wall. They have no where near the radar cross-section of SW yet they get the stuff in on a regular basis. Awhile back, I asked SW why they don't get in any Berger bullets anymore. The response was that Berger is having production problems and can't fill their orders. But then not long after that, I was shooting with Walt Berger himself at a match and I heard from the man's lips himself that they pulled SW's distributorship because they failed time and time again to pay their bills. After getting bit so many times, they would no longer sell to SW. Now, Walt is a pretty straight arrow and I tend to believe him rather than the suits at SW. SW just figured I would never know the difference but they didn't count on the fact that this boy "gets around" in the industry and was likely to hear the word from the horses mouth. The writing was on the wall many moons ago about the future of SW I'm afraid. [/QUOTE]
