I started reloading and casting bullets in 1967 ... I've never had an ammo shortage . A Lee Hand Press and a set of reloading dies let's me assemble ammo sitting at this computer desk I'm sitting at ... Think about it .
My advice , get a free Lee Catalog and see what they have to offer and buy only ammo that can provide reloadable cases ...
Brass with Boxer priming .
It seems the new normal is a big ammo shortage every few years ...don't know why but it's happening now on a regular basis ... I'm ready for them , are you !

That’s what I did. I saved brass for years just in case I ever started reloading. Then Newtown happened. Been reloading ever sense. Powder is still easy to find. It’s primers near me. But I see them every now and then. Just saw 2000 small rifle primers. I took 1000. Leave some for the next guy. I have more than enough for now.
A year ago guys in here laughed when I told them I reload 9MM. Whose laughing now? I loaded 100 rounds on Sunday. Total cost maybe 13 bucks. My equipment is long paid for. I have enough components to shoot for years at my rate. That’s what I’m gonna concentrate on buying now. Components.
