I want a meme of me bump-firing a 9mm AR with $79/k Wolf and a caption that says ‘some dance to remember, some dance to forget‘.

I went shooting with @BigMan74 and @beitodesstrafe and we went through over 5,000 rounds in a day where we did nothing but shoot.

I think many were keenly aware of how good things were. No one expected it to last forever, but most were counting on at least another 4 years.

We laughed when Biden ran on a basement-dwelling campaign of eliminating fracking and implementing another AWB. People like having jobs, cheap gas, and unfettered 2A rights. But wouldn’t you know it, the son-of-a-B got elected with the most votes in history. Doesn’t sound right, but here we are nonetheless.

Around 2001ish, I used to order 1000 rounds of 55gr Federal for $119 from Ammoman.com.

Wolf was around $99-109 for .223 and cheaper for commie calibers.   (Sometimes as low as $79!)

South African 7.62x51 was around the same price.  IIRC I ordered around 2000 rounds for about $220.

Free shipping on all of that.

The mag dump thing is what hit me right in the feels. I have stacked enough for actual shooting, but I did not stock up enough for wasteful noise making blast off mag dumping.

The waste was my favorite part.

I remember surplus cases of .308 and 5.56 for $129 and battle packs for $30.  I also remember being told in about 2007 or so that the supply was about to dry up, buy it now.  Sure enough, the price made a big jump almost overnight...to maybe $189/case.

The federal black packs were peak ammo deals

I need to punch myself for ignoring the .223 packs.

Oh, when I look back now

And if I had the choice
Yeah, I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life

Don't take anything foregranted.



This stuff was $120 per 1000rd case.

Think I have some old boxes of 223 that have like $3 price tags on them.

you could buy a new car with 5k rounds of 556 these days

Whats even more fucked is this is probably only the begging.

Just wait until we're paying $3/round for 556. And then $6, and then poof.

With factories making as much ammo as they can and people generally having less disposable income due to the covid recession eventually supply will have to catch up with demand, no?
