I looked at 15+ sites , most 6 cavity normal lube groove bullet molds, are not in stock anywhere . You would think Lee would be running three shifts to fill the demand . Must be busy making $600 toilet seats , Humvee door handles for the government ?

I can find 2 cavity or 6 cavity in the tumble lube style , that's about all .

Also Midway is selling Lee handles for 6 cavity molds for $12 till the end of the month.

I noticed a lot of reloading stuff is backordered everywhere.
Looks like a lot of folks are taking up the art/science.

My thought is 98% of reloading gear is made in the US of A . Sure powder is Australian or some bullets are south America. I haven't seen a Chinese lube sizer or fully progressive press from Taiwan . I could be wrong

I was at Cabela's the other day an bout had a heart attack when I saw that their cast iron skillets are made in China. For me, if it ain't made by Lodge it ain't cast iron, much less China! My wife was in agreement that no way in hell will we buy Chinese cast iron cuz it probably is made from lead (hmmm) and Sportsman's carries Lodge. Just a little observation.

Question is, where are they getting the lead to put in the molds?

I have a tip , on an old range out in the sticks . A bunch of agency's use MP5 -slug -.40 cal . The range guard thinks the ground is 30% lead in half the berms - butts . Fine dirt not a ton of rocks , I think I can dig next Sunday.

Stay tuned
