this might be my last show for a few weeks if i cant find more supplies

[Smokeman13b]

TDY this weekend unfortunately. I wanted to go and scope some supplies.

[Major Kong]

I'm planning on coming David. How are you set for 45acp bullets, preferably FMJ?

[Lumber_Jack]

I'll be there Saturday. Get that .223 brass and maybe some .22 if I can afford it

[gjohnsoniv]

I'm going to try and be there Sunday morning or afternoon.

[babelt]

I'll be there to pick up that 223 brass!

[timcar86]

Will I be able to get primers and powder there at a decent price?

David, before Sandy Hook one could buy 1000 rounds of 223 for the same price. Do you think prices will stay high permanently or come back down eventually? I cannot afford to pay .70 a round. Takes the fun out of shooting.

Reload.

[gun sane]

I'm in for some small pistol primers, powder and bullets.  What you got is what I need.

[Erik88]

Reload.

 

Doesn't do any good if you can't find the components needed to reload.

 

Also, how much is the initial start up cost? I've priced a few items before and it appeared it was going to cost me a lot to get started. For someone that doesn't shoot all that often it would take me a long time just to break even.

 

I'd like to know how much you guys pay per round to reload your own .223 ammo.

Range brass picked up, or reloading some you already have-free

100 primers                                                                      -$3-$4

100 55 grain FMJ                                                              -$9-$12

Powder for 100 rounds                                                       -$6-$8

 

So on average, $3.50+$10.50+$7=18 cents a round x 20=$3.60 per box.

 

You can spend a bit more for premium bullets, benchrest primers, or the latest whizzbang powder, but this will give you an idea.

 

David has what you need to load 223.

 

I expect you can put together a pretty comprehensive, basic reloading setup for less than $200.

[Dolomite`s Breezy]

We will come and see you

[Oh Shoot]

Also, how much is the initial start up cost?...

Gordon has mentioned an exact list of needed equip or $200 or so.

It's hard to really save money. It takes a long time to recoup the cost of the equipment. But it does provide a hedge against panic situations. I assembled my stuff over a series of holidays and birthday gifts. So most of it I didn't actually purchase myself.

[Guest redneckbiker]

My son and I will definitely be there.

[timcar86]

Wait, where is this thing at?

[atlas3025]

I will be there.  Will be by to see David and stock up on something...I don't know what yet, but I'm sure he will have something I need!

[Garufa]

Wait, where is this thing at?

 

Chilhowee Park.

[jaxjohn419]

I attend usually every other month. I don't really socialize with you guys , so how do I find which table is David's, in what I am sure will be a sea of madness this weekend?

[Lumber_Jack]

Jacobs Building at Chilhowee Park, Knoxville

Go in the door go left and look for the large "reloading supplies" sign overhead. David is a large man, you can't miss him.
