    Nice.

    I like scoped AR15s. I have a Burris MTAC 1-4x24 (that I got a long time ago lol), Leupold VX Freedom 3-9x40 and a Primary Arms 4-14x44.

    That's what I'll probably end up getting. Ideally, I would prefer a dedicated upper identical to my main.

    I got my 1-4 for multigun, but ended up not competing with it lol. Back then, the expensive optics were 1-6 and 1-8 was just hitting the market in high-end optics.

    Here they've cut back round counts nearly in half.

    I stopped competing in 2019 so I could stockpile ammo. I could see the writing on the wall and I remembered 2012s panic. I wish I had started earlier, though.

    Same, but I expected that by this time production would have caught up. I had a few thousand of each, now I'm in the low hundreds.

    I cut range trips to 1-2 per month until October, then I cut to 1 per month. After the election, I began ammo rationing.

    I count rounds for drills or plinking and set just enough aside to hit those counts. Last range trip, I brought 32 rounds of .45ACP, 40 rounds of 5.56 and 50 rounds of 6.5 Grendel.

    I haven't bought very much ammo last year. I was buying normal and stocking-up until this past March. After that, it was random good deals found at local stores or online. Most of what I've bought has been .30-06 (for my M1 Garand) and 6.5 Grendel match and steel surplus.

    I did pick up some sub-$11 9mm, $18 .45ACP and $12 5.56/.223 as recent as December.

    This week should show another price increase, according to distributors who are getting hit with another increase.
