[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 751149, member: 39764"] As dedicated reloaders (something that most of us are on here), it's just a matter of maintaing inventory levels. With the current events going on, maintaining is a matter of ordering and waiting as I'm doing right now. I too, believe the days of reloading to control costs (not that I was ever concerned with that) are going to be gone, shortly. Example, every 338 factory round in Lapua, by Lapua costs about $3.00 for every trigger pull, whereas handloads in OFB are about $2.00 factoring in time plus components. I suspect that will increase to $3.00 for each handload and $4.00 plus for a factory load and possibly more, depending on added surcharges. Ammunition is ripe for taxiation over and above whats already levied in sales tax and as was ststed the government and country is broke despite what politicians and Bernake tells you. Just look around at diminishing allocations of funding for schools, municipalities, state governments.... all going down in allocations.... It's called taxes to support the government and I agree with a previous poster, we voted in the cuirrent regime at every level, Federal, State and local so you get what you voted for. I know the argument is "I didn't vote for that A'hole but keep in mind that majority still rules with elections. [B]We[/B] [B]are the minority, not the majority.....[/B] Why it's so vitally important to talk to everyone you know and don't know and reason diplomatically with them and try to convince them they need to one, vote and two, vote to remove the very politicians that are instigating this. It's all about controlling the government, not the government controlling us. We are a ways out on elections but don't forget for a minute that your vote counts and counts exponentially more in local and state government elections than national elections.... [/QUOTE]
