What a time to try this hobby.

Perhaps I missed something but how are Pistol, Powder and Ball Cheap In this day and age and in a all but Depression of the Country.

The only thing for me is lead every thing else...is cheap because, I make the rest.

I ordered 750 rws caps but they are taking their sweet time getti g here so i got the prime-all kit too. Of which the cap maker is taking a while to get here as well.

Old roof jacks, race car weights, ships ballast and old dentists offices being gutted are your best scrounging ideas for a lot of free to cheep lead.

Honestly BP ML's are just a STHF choice for me just incase the good stuff gets cut off. I'm well stocked and prepared for both scenario's being as I'm self sufficient in creation. So until I have to resort to them and go in reverse I will stick with my unmentionables. My household has a plan in place and it has been rehearsed, so I pity the poor old boy who comes in uninvited!

"May the good lord keep us all safe, in a world growing evil.

My local Wally World this morning:

Enough doom and gloom guys. Caps are out there! Go find them! Not the attitude we need to give new shooters.

I paid $6.99 at Scheels, I Got Ripped!

Pistols are cheap, powder is cheap, lead ball is cheap...
But the caps are like looking for the Holy grail.
What a gyp.
I guess ill just have a couple pieces of art for some wall display.
Maybe things will turn around but for now, obviously i picked the wrong time to get into this.

I am confused with the new way of things. At one point another company would have filled the void but i guess im just a dinosaur.

It's called a "Hobby".
If it were easy and all you had to do it walk out the store's door and head to the range - Everyone Would Be Doing It!

If we make enough of our own they will have to adjust prices.

Or they will quit making them entirely.

500% tax on beers cans that can be used to make caps.

Maybe bud light can recall all their unsold beer and make caps out of the cans.

I'll pass. No target no bud anything for me. Good idea though!

I’m glad everyone hates Bud Lite. I’ve started drinking it since it is now so cheap. Now if I could just get Dylan to do a gun or ammunition commercial I could really stock up. I never did care for the close to water Bud but mixed with a little Clamato it isn’t too bad. Still doesn’t beat a stout or porter.

The way things are going, it will be possible to bring back the Collier.

Gee and I thought $3.95 for a "1000 count sleeve" of italian number 11's was too much so only bought 4 of them back when. Now if you drop a cap in the dirt you may feel compelled to search for it.

If you are shooting at any thing apart from substance or protection, it's called a hobby. If you can't afford the time or money to pursue your hobby look to find something else. Otherwise you will never enjoy the hobby.
