what to purchase: ammo or reloading supplies?
Here is the thing about this whole thread -- Who do you think will win the presidency? There is a very real chance that Hillary is our next president -- There is no question that this WILL drive gun prices sky high and cause shortages of ammo and components Will we recover? Maybe, most likely -- but our mode of enjoyment will be threatened even worse than it is today Even now -- .22 rimfire still hasn't recovered -- the days of $16 milk cartons of federal 550 packs are gone -- that wasn't very long ago My point is -- BUY NOW -- It sure is nice to have the capability to make ammo but certainly not a necessity BUY NOW ammo or components and equipment -- Wednesday, November 9th this year may be too late

Group buys are nice but you can certainly save money buying alone -- trick is you have to fill the box -- When I buy alone, I max out the box -- Usually spend <$700 -- I have never experienced any real shortages but did have difficulty for awhile finding projectiles It's scary isn't it -- I have some boxes of primers, bought 20 years ago at Rays sport shop -- they where expensive -- $11.99 per 1000

You can learn Reloading is so much more than a monetary savings.

It was only a few years ago but trying to find 9mm dies proved quite a challenge I would stockpile while you can -- Hilary in office and it's gonna get hard -- You won't see sales like the one below -- $399 with free shipping http://www.midsouthshooterssupply.com/item/00005095100/Lock-N-Load-AP-Auto-Progressive-Press I waited a month to get this just a few years ago, then it came broken and I wouldn't give it back because I might not have seen a replacement Point is -- If your gonna buy -- buy now while you can

Hog hunting
Lisa -- Don't worry too much about a cooler -- Just stuff a bag or 2 of ice in the chest cavity and get to the butcher Your not that far away and I'm guessing you are going where Rosie goes -- Roche Just call the butcher beforehand and let them know when you are on the way -- They will work with you I would use a blue tarp to deal with the blood and water...

Buckshot 100rds for $30 after MIR
I decided to stay away from this too -- I'm pretty sure I had a remington rebate go bad before It was for slugs -- never saw the rebate

Mike is this right? Did you misread it or am I missing it? I see $25 rebate for a 100 pack with a limit of 2 100 packs per person for a total of $50 off of 200 shells Ok I see it -- The link posted by Darrenf is wrong -- that one is only $25 off of 2 100 packs If you follow the link from Mikey then click on the 2nd rebate at the cabelas site you will find the info Mikey posted $50 off per 100 pack limit of 4 100 packs Good deal right there!!! thanks for posting

Router recommendations?
Rental fees?? -- Do they actually give you a discount if you don't use their modem? I certainly don't have a breakdown of a rental fee on my bill...

Re-using references for pistol permits
Same for me too -- Mine get contacted every time -- They actually make copies so they know what they wrote the last time One would think they would skip this step for "regulars"

Bass Pro a'coming to Sayreville
This is interesting - Water pressure -- I've been working a few miles down the road -- Towne Lake off main street at sayreville blvd south -- Housing -- around 300 single family homes and they just finished about 400 apartments -- As you may or may not know I do all the irrigation on that site -- every house -- every apartment building The one thing that area is not lacking is water pressure -- Sayreville has their own water dept -- they don't buy water from anyone -- in fact they sell it 100 psi in every home in town lake -- enough that they had problems with water heaters in the beginning of construction -- too much pressure -- banging pipes when they used copper -- they switched to pex when copper was $3 per pound and that stopped all the banging I am 100% positive that, at least a few miles down the road, water pressure is a non-issue -- I also did every lawn sprinkler on the other side of town at LaMer off Ernston rd right up against the parkway -- same water pressure there too 100+PSI

Bass Pro a'coming to Sayreville
This bass pro is still years away -- the site is just dirt and been that way for 4 or 5 years now although they have started to move the dirt around and level out the site... sort of It's right at the bottom of the driscol bridge, southbound side, right against the raritan river -- and you have the beautiful smell if the middlesex county sewage authority

Buying new: Online w/FFL Transfer or have dealer order?
Is that $15 nics then $20 for a total of $35 or a straight $20 - either way a good price of course add sales tax

Buying new: Online w/FFL Transfer or have dealer order?
My FFL does his too -- and he's in walking distance from home

Buying new: Online w/FFL Transfer or have dealer order?
My local FFL doesn't care either way -- He'll flat out show me his prices -- If he can beat online he will, if he can't he suggests I order it I don't know about this problem with a gun thing -- Once it's transferred to you it should be between you and the manufacturer -- the dealer isn't going to fix a warranty issue - he's just sending it to the manufacturer and you can do that You can always refuse a transfer from an online vendor - Use a good vendor who will accept returns -- grab a gun most of the time for me but I've bought used a few times too Don't forget about sales tax...
