Ouch! I got some a few months back for $400 or soo, didn't realize that it had gone up soo much. Of course the stuff that I got was Lake City, loose pack, so it didn't have primer seal.

Can you tell us about Shelf Reliance? That sounds interesting.

I bought the harvest unit: Shelf Reliance :: The Harvest

It is expensive, but now that I spent the money, I really like it. The unit reinforces having cans on hand. I'm slowly filling it up and figuring out what we want. They also sell smaller units that can go on a shelf.

If i did it again, I would probably eliminate the #10 sized cans. However, I might fill those with some freeze dried #10 long term cans. Not sure.

Neat setup Indyjoe. Those shelves look very sturdy--cans get heavy pretty quick and can overload a wimpy shelf set.

 

[longbow]

a cz 52 and 1200 rounds of ammo for it followed me home today

My garage fridge died so I don't know what I will do to it yet.

 

[Principal Skinr]

500 rds of .223 Silver Bear. I know it is steel, but it shoots accurately enough and isn't any dirtier than Remington UMC. I shot close to 2" groups at 100 yards with my R15 with it.

I also picked up a couple hundred rounds of .17hmr and 100 rds of 9mm.

One more thing....a new Double Star stripped lower from Law Enforcement Firearms for 100 bucks!

 

[longbow]

My son keeps shooting my ammo and tells me I need to get into reloading........I have spent brass all over the house....

My dad, who is a welder, would get old fridges, clean them out, and use them as dry/cool storage for welding rods. Perhaps there could be other applications along those lines?
