45/70 cases - loophole - 01-20-2015

Track of the Wolf finally shipped me 250 Starline cases which have been on backorder for months.
What have y'all seen about the availability of components lately?

Brass is slowly coming back. Wish 303brit was as easy to find as 45-70. Just got a couple 45 2.4 cases from track and got them inside a week. Everyone local to me has plenty of primers on the shelf and are starting to get powders back in. Now if we could just get some 22 on the shelves again I would be a happy camper.

Thanks Bob. I needed a good chuckle after reading the weather forecast this morning.
