VN-140 . . . at 120 (30-06) or 280 (223) rounds per pound, it just doesn't last long.
What reloading supplies are you in need of?

I need M1 30 Carbine dies - I prefer Hornady, but others may do
I have a set on backorder with Midway - should have been an early May delivery - current orders now say end of June - I am not sure my early May date still applies.
Also not sure if they are considered rifle or handgun dies for poll purposes

30 M1 Carbine Dies usually are listed under Rifle Dies, and Grafs is showing Lyman & RCBS 30 M1 Carbine dies in stock. The RCBS are more money because they are Carbide. **PM Sent**

I could use a few hundred pounds of lead, I'm down to just 50 lbs of ingots. I am also keeping an eye out for a .30 caliber bullet mold for some reduced .30-06 loads.

.45 ACP
I'm running low on 230gr fmj and 185gr plated flat points.
I'm checking Roze daily as I have scored some .30 carbine and .357 158gr SP. They do have some rifle bullets available.
I was ordering Rainier bullets from Midway. Berrys has nothing to sell unless you shoot .32's or 45-70..
I'm running low. I even checked my box of Gold Dots and found 52 pieces in the box..
About 250 rounds still to be loaded plus the Gold Dots.
Still have several new boxes on hand.
If I run out I'll just shoot something else for a while.

I don't see 'none of the above' as a choice.

There is no option for "None"
Exactly!! Smart reloaders saw this coming in Nov & started stocking up. I have always kept a minimum couple years worth of supplies, but added to it Nov-Dec, I knew the Golcer&chief was coming for the gun community in his lame duck 2nd term.
I've go lots of primers, lots of powder, lots of brass and most all components except for the 380, 9mm, and 40S&W. I learned my lesson about shortages years ago.
I'm a revolver guy and recently got into reloading for the auto-loaders..
I've been looking for dies, bullet molds, shell holders and sizer dies in the middle of all these shortages and it hasn't been easy to find them at reasonable prices. Especially difficult have been the 380ACP 90 to 100 grain bullet molds and the 9mm and 40 S&W bullet molds.
If you've got them I'm buyin' if the price is reasonable....

Well good for you. So what are you suggesting for new firearm owners that can't find ammo? As long as I can remember shooters always recommended fellow shooters get into reloading. I enjoy reloading as much as shooting, and have all I need for equipment and components, but still like to try to help fellow reloaders. Don't see the sense in sitting back and telling new reloaders they should have known better, or it is not you fault that they aren't prepared.
I have quite a list
I have quite a list beyond handgun bullets. Dies, headspace gauges, 9mm brass new book.... a few hundred $$ worth. By the time I get all of it I will have a whole new list.

I'd say "none". But if anybody knows where any 158gr .38 spec (.358) in LSWC-HP, well, that would be cool. Haven't seen those hollow point variety in foreeevvvveeerrrr - even before the chaos.

Rifle powder, only because I haven't been shooting much since the closest range is over 60 miles away. I have 2 of 3 pounds left, but I'd like to have 8. I'm set on everything else, lots of bullets, primers, and pistol powder for another 12 months.
.358 lead, .452 lead, and .451 FMJ projectiles. I probably have enough to get me through summer, maybe fall. Beyond that is iffy.
