[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 1595948, member: 27307"] There are exceptions to every rule and every statement, yours included and you want to prove the exception. Many of us shoot A LOT, I've already stated that, but we are not the majority of shooters buying powder, primers and bullets. We are outweighed by the much smaller number of consumers who shoot on weekends and hunt some. They buy the one-pound canisters, the 100 count boxes of bullets and 1,000 primers because they just don't shoot as much as some of us do. The benchrest shooters, the 1,000 yards shooters and now the ELR shooters especially, are buying by the ton:eek:(exaggeration) in order for us to get through the season or have a longer run of the same lot number. These smaller shipments from the manufacturers are driving more of the less frequent shooters to buy in greater bulk to insure that they don't have to wait for the next manufacturing run. Thus the cyclical nature of the process we're seeing take place. Unfortunately, we're not seeing the manufacturers step up with increases in the production volume. They appear to be content sending what they can and letting the market run dry. This will continue to drive the prices and the profits up as we are all squeezed by the supply chain. No wonder they won't help fix it!:mad: And I have an standing order in with one supplier for 12 more 8-lbs and another supplier for 10 more 8-lbs. Yes, we burn a lot of Re-26 powder!:D;) Enjoy!
