That's strange. You'd think it would be quite a bit more. Maybe they got a better deal on it.
Reptile is already around 0.70/round.It gets more ridiculous every week. I’m here for the laughs at this point. Honestly would not be suprised to see prices top out at 75 to 80 cents per round for 9mm, and even then I bet people would still pay, albeit not near as many.
Just got a delivery from xxxxx today
Id guess that MA doesnt make up a large enough part of their revenue for them to bother. TS is in CT and had been shipping to MA for years, so Id bet that the amount of business that they were getting from MA gun owners was large enough for them to push back.I was watching a Lucky Gunner video. Didn’t know it was an ammo site so I went to the site and read the shipping info. Cannot ship to Ma,Ca,bla bla bla..., and was wondering how can these sites be swayed to change? Why is it TS can deliver but others can’t? I unsubscribed from Lucky Gunner videos on YouTube and commented why.

Iirc, MA has the lowest percentage of gun owners in the US. TS to some extent had that market cornered and nationwide companies cant be bothered to pay lawyers to win the right to fight over the scraps.
Thanks. That makes sense. I don’t see why they need to lawyer up to be able to ship here if it is legal. What is putting the damper on them? Healey?Id guess that MA doesnt make up a large enough part of their revenue for them to bother.

But then 37,000 gun owners is nothing to sneeze at.Massachusetts is low but not the lowest by far at least according to ownership as a percentage of population. There are ten states below Massachusetts. Gun Ownership by State 2020
Yes. The AG 's office sends out lawyer letters to companies. Has been for years. "Stop or we'll take you to court." Most companies compare the revenue they pull out of MA to the legal bs to fight the AG and decide that its a better business decision to stay awayWhat is putting the damper on them? Healey?
Wow, surprised to see NH, OH, and NE in that group...Massachusetts is low but not the lowest by far at least according to ownership as a percentage of population. There are ten states below Massachusetts. Gun Ownership by State 2020

I literally start to get pissed at people like that. "I would be like, dude im not even going to look, its f***ing gone already. You either want it or not, shit or get off the pot. " You're trying to do the guy a favor and he's being a f***ing skinflint.

Would love to know how they counted all the guns in a state that doesn't require any permit or registration. My guess is they are counting P&R permits in NH, which certainly does NOT reflect ownership.Wow, surprised to see NH, OH, and NE in that group...
$331 for 500 rounds of 9mm...lord. I thought it was shitty when I bought 500 for $230 shipped.
Depending on the calibers you want to reload, it's still doable now. Small and large rifle primers, and large pistol primers can be had (with a little bit of work). It's the small pistol primers that are tough. Powder is easy enough to get. Bullets are relatively easy to get as long as you're not picky on the type (cast lead, coated, plated, jacketed etc).god... I really wish I had moved sooner and bought reloading equipment. I finally have space in a garage or basement to set up a little reloading area, and components are like unobtainium. at least I have enough ammo to shoot another year or maybe 2 if I stretch it for 9mm. I'm kicking myself for not picking up more 5.56 and .308 when I had a chance...
If reloading anything small pistol, you're going to have a tough time finding those primers unless you decide to substitute the primers for small rifle primers (which can be done).I think this thread has made me realize that it's time for me to finally begin learning how to reload my own shit. I bought a bunch of powder years ago with the intent on learning a new hobby, but then I got married & had a child, so that plan got smashed to pieces. Well, now's the day to dust off the powders and buy a press.
Back in April/May I recall some folks were getting all "f*** that" at .24¢ a round, guessing some of those opinions have probably changed since then.I thought I was buying the farm when I paid $320 for a case of 1,000. Shoulda bought 6...

Accept the fact that you are too late to the reloading game to do anything *this* time, but don't you worry there *will* be a next time and you will be a happy man.
