I guess I did good. Went looking for small pistol primers and Shooter's World Precision rifle powder. Didn't find the powder and the primers were $95 for the low and $170 for the high. Most were $140-160.
Saw Norma Tac-22 for sale front to back by the 500 brick. Prices were $60-80 and CCI SV was $10 cheaper. Until I got to the back row. Father and son ammo outfit from Va. had bricks for $40 and 4 on the table. I asked the son if cash did better. He said only if I buy a case for cash. $390. I told him I wanted to finish the rest of the folks in the row and "I'd be back". Retired husband and wife near the end had BR equipment and supplies from their younger days. Lots of LE Wilson when 222 Rem and the new fangled 6mmPPC got going. Passed on the neck turning stuff from Sinclair. Two Marguart style tuners for rough and finish with all the expanders and pilots and other necessities for $120. I got plenty of K&M stuff. He had a Wilson deluxe case trimmer setup minus the micrometer plus 3 case holders for $20. I've used my RCBS collett trimmer since the beginning of time. Nice price to get into an improved case trimmer setup.
I had to pay $10 to get in. So, I didn't find the stuff I went for but did find ammo for the 22 rifles and pistols that they like and another reloading tool that's better than the old standby for $420. That's cheaper than buying CCI SV by the box at Wally World
