Ended up with a couple cases worth of those myself. They’re a ‘geez that’s out there’ shell for me so my stash will last a long time.

The first time I heard that Walmart was going to stop selling the Remington Nitro 27's I started stocking up.

I sure am glad I did.

The Remington Nitro 27's shoot soft for me with my Krieghoff K80 with the Soft Touch on it.

I have 4 Walmart's near me and none of them now have the Remington Nitro 27's.

Like I said, I am not going to drive around during a pandemic from store to store looking for ammo. Online ordering for me. Sometimes I pick up at curbside from the stores that are local. Sometimes I have the ammo shipped when it is cheap or free to do so which is a nice benefit of living in Texas. I have upwards of 20 flats right now and am going to slow down the buying a bit.

All of those were bought before the pandemic.

I saw Bass Pro Herter’s 12 ga, 1oz, #8, 1180 fps in stock this morning for free shipment to me or the store for pickup but procrastinated for about an hour. When I went back to get them, they were gone. That is the world we live in now.

I have a couple flats of those old White Golds. You have been sitting in those for awhile.

I feel fortunate to have close to 5000 reloads all made up, supplies to load another 3500-4000 this winter and probably at least 2000 factory target loads I will save for events that require factory.

Hopefully in 6 months things start to improve if not sooner.

A friend of mine quit shooting 5 years ago and give me 14 cases of the White Golds.

What a friend!

Where can you purchase Gamebore at in the states? I have a case of White Golds and love them..but can't find anyone in the states that has them (or will have them when shortage ends)

I was in a big box store that I won't name in my area recently. I list below the ENTIRE ammo shelf that they had in stock.

- 12 ga 3" 1-1/2 oz #2 Steel.
- 20 ga Sabot Slugs.
- 28 ga 3/4 oz steel.
- 1 box of .22 Short.
- 1 box of 26 Nosler.
- 5 Boxes of 50 BMG.

That's it.

Man the ammo hoarders are making it bad for everyone this year.
