Got knocked back, again, till the 8th of August. I purposely did not go Winchester due to their Gov contract awarded for 30million dollars for 9mm frangible practice ammo. That kinda backfired.
Ordered 6-9-09 (HP's from Cabela's, not the SWC's):
250 .44 240gr NOS JHP...went from 1-2 week B/O till who knows when.
1000 .44 240gr HC SWC 6-6-09...still no sign of them. Should ship this week, or the next, or the.....
I just ordered 2 bricks of Rem LPP back in May and it took only 30 days from order to my door.
sigh..........things are slowing to a dead stop.
Blast this Barry-O Admin fuled paincky merry-go-round thing. Plus when that Bill passes HG ammo is gonna be on the kaibash here....
Anyone else on perpetual hold?
I'm in the wrong business..... And got a thousand .38's ready to load, 'cept for the empty hole in the big end of the cases.
When's it gonna end!

#7: Re: Oh this lovely backorder merry-go-round..... Author: stovepipe, Location: Pine, Az.Posted: Fri Jul 17, 2009 5:54 am ---- Will do Wiersy.
#8: Re: Oh this lovely backorder merry-go-round..... Author: Bushmaster, Location: Ava, MissouriPosted: Fri Jul 17, 2009 7:04 am ---- Magtech primers...They go bang...Every time...
#9: Re: Oh this lovely backorder merry-go-round..... Author: Crackshot, Location: MichPosted: Fri Jul 17, 2009 10:57 am ---- Cant help with the primers, You can cast your bullets though! I have more bullets than cases and primers.
Still gettin' 1000ct .357dia HC SWC/65$ incl shipping. $85.00 for .44 240gr.
Buyin' my bullets frees me up for other stuff I've got goin' on around the Ponderosa.
Someday though cuz it's gettin' harder and harder to get anything nowadays.
#11: Re: Oh this lovely backorder merry-go-round..... Author: stovepipe, Location: Pine, Az.Posted: Fri Aug 21, 2009 2:19 pm ---- Yeehaw....
240gr Nos JHP just came into stock, shipping soon! Only took 2 mos.
Ordered some MagTech primers and they shipped yesterday!
Ordered even more MagTech primers for a bud and they (should) ship next week!
Told 'em to stuff it on the CCI order I've had pending....... since MARCH. They'll proly get a truck full tomorrow. I'm over CCI. Aint worth the wait. Most of my stuff calls for Remy primers anywho so.... using the MT's for plinkin'.
Hope the MagTech primers are progressive friendly...maybe if I move the lever reeeeeal slowly, so as not to jiggle 'em too much. NO BOOMERS ON THE BENCH PLEASE!
Off to the range to make room for more reloading opertunities.
Weeeeeeeeee!

#13: Re: Oh this lovely backorder merry-go-round..... Author: wiersy111, Location: Central MinnesotaPosted: Fri Aug 21, 2009 4:07 pm ---- I ordered some bullets to try from Dardas it took almost a week to get. They seem ok to me though. priimers is hard around here I just keep checking back at the local gun shops. A good reason to go to the gun shop.
#14: Re: Oh this lovely backorder merry-go-round..... Author: stovepipe, Location: Pine, Az.Posted: Mon Aug 24, 2009 1:43 pm ---- That's not a bad wait time Mr. W and I might use them next time....CB uses the same mold, blue looking lube, same BNH and is less $ but man the wait was nuts he was so swamped.
Ooop! just got a brick of MagTech SPP. Now I can finally start reloading some of the 1200 .39spl/.357 cases I got ready to roll. I'm firguring roughly around 5-8 cents a round. Better oil up the press.....
