I cant seem to find anything in the new law that would require ANY TYPE OF PERMIT to purchase reloading components (powder, primers, brass, bullets)

Am I making sense,  or do you still need one of the permits to by these items?

Thoughts?

The state defines ammunition as follows: "ammunition" means a loaded cartridge, consisting of a primed case, propellant or projectile, designed for use in any firearm

Anything that doesn't meet that definition can be purchased without one of the required permits/certificates to purchase ammunition. And the requirement to have a permit/certificate to buy ammunition or ammunition magazine doesn't kick in until October 1, 2013.

One more thing that doesnt make sense.

So the (my) sensible answer is:

Just keep buying and stocking up, eventually they might catch on. My personal plan is to get 5K ahead on the components I need for each of the four calibers I reload for, and continue to buy to stay at 5K for each as I shoot them off. This ammo shortage will absolutely come around again

And buy .22 lr whenever I can at a decent price

Bunker Mentaility? Absolutely!

Doesn't appear to be anything preventing/curtailing purchasing reloading supplies.

Grab what you need, and stack it deep when/if you can.

Personally I've been shopping local for powder primers, and getting bullets from an on line store.

I never used to store much ammo. Now I can't seem to get enough. I plan to store a few thousand rounds of factory ammo for SHTF. I reload .223 and .45 and I am building up stocks of supplies for that too. Powder is still real tough to come by. I will store lots of reloads too. I never used to think this way but after Obama was re-elected I am not sure that we are not headed for some weird times. If we get a long term power outage from a storm or something I want to protect my property and more importantly my family. If the people who live off the state stop getting their free food and cable they may start to forage.

Week-long power outages from fall/winter storms have been the norm for this state over the past 2 years, and one day the power just won't come back on.  Stack 'em deep, lock 'n load.

It's just a matter of dumbass politicians having no clue what they are doing.  Just like executives in big companies, same thing.  They overlooked all the reloading things as they have no clue.  Better off that way anyway.
