.303 is back in-stock almost everywhere. This is a screen grab from Ammoseek and is just partial. Much more than this listed.

You guys who have been looking for ammo better jump on this.  

I learned the lesson on reloading components 20 years ago, buy stock when it is available.

Britrifles is so very right! Strike whilst the iron is hot! When these are gone it may be another long drought 'til more comes your way.

They may limit how much you can buy. Happened to me with Large Rifle Primers.

All of this talk does beg the question of "just how much .303 is enough?" My thought is that if you know exactly how much you have, you then most likely don't have enough.

I used to think that I might be a borderline ammo hoarder, but compared to others, I’m just a novice hoarder.  I’ve forgotten how much ammo I have, something like:

5,000 .30-06
3,000 .303
1,000 .308/7.62
5,000 .223

Then I thought I might be a reloading component hoarder.  But, I shoot about 3,00 to 4,000 rounds a year, so the stock keeps me going thru the drought.  As long as you don’t store powder and primers in the heat, it lasts for decades.  

I think the difference between a hoarder and a stockpiler is the hoarder will never use the ammo.  He will fill up his garage and it will still be there when he dies. 

 I do worry about having 100 lbs of powder and 35,000 primers in the house tho, would be a tremendous fireworks show.  My sister just lost her house from a fire, so it’s got me thinking…

I forgot... You're not in Canada like me. I sure hope our woke commie PM resigns like the New Zealand PM and my country can return to normal.

Wowser! I am feeling significantly underdressed for the big dance, as I have but a few boxes of factory PPU 180gr JSPs and 174gr FMJs. Also, should I ever need it, I have an old box of factory Remington 215s. I do have several empties that I continually reload/shoot with my own cast bullets and mild charges of shotgun powder. In reserve I have perhaps 3 bags (150 pieces) of PPU 180s which I will load with A4064 this weekend.
