I think some one suggested checking all the sites many times a day to catch items when they are restocked. Not my style. I don't use any of those sites or apps that check for you and send you a notification. If you don't do this the people who do will beat you to the in stock items.

May I suggest that you also add to improve your odds:

Just was able to snag 8# Hodgdon H4895 from Natchez.

Already checked those, and do so at least once per day. NO primers.

I'm retired, almost immobilized with low back pain, trapped at home by COVID lockdowns. I could do this, but jeeez, even I have a life!

Face it folks, what with the exploding demand for ammo, the Remington debacle, and dearth of primers coming in from overseas, (Russia, S&B, et.al.), there ain't gonna BE any primers for a long while. Plan accordingly. This will mean ceasing or at least curtailing ammo-hungry sports like run-n-gun combat pistol and cowboy action, ceasing to fire hundreds of rounds a week for practice, und-und-und. Dry firing drills only. Mothball those fancy progressive presses.

Old time hunters of winter meat could and did make one box of 20 centerfire rounds last three seasons, and didn't go hungry, either. Depression-era farm boys were given three .22 rounds and told to bring in a rabbit or a couple of squirrels for supper, and got a lickin' if they failed. Learn the three-rounds-only method of sighting-in your scoped rifle. Learn to hunt successfully with single-shots instead of repeaters. (A comparatively few early settlers wiped out the deer and elk in Pennsylvania with muzzleloaders, for Pete's sake!) Hunt with bows and crossbows.

Observe, adapt, overcome. This is a sample of the doomsday the preppers have been warning about.

I have no problem with people buying more ammo than they might shoot, because they never want to shoot their last round. I think most of us agree that those buying everything to hopefully, gouge desperate shooters are the one’s that should be scorned.

I ran into a chance to buy a few reloading items from an older gentleman north of me. In that kit was about 800 rds of 7.92 x 57 ammo. Its 185 grain Corelokt bullets loaded over H4895. I did the best I could think of and screwed a barrel in a 1916 Oberndorf mauser and started blasting away. Just as much fun as any other rifle i have and way cheaper. If there are others local to me stop by and you can blast some too. Bring your 8mmx57 and we will have some fun.
