I’m in CT as well. Have LRMags and Large Pistol (CCI 250s and 300s) and am looking to trade for small rifle primers of any kind, mag or not. Also looking for CFE-223.
 
I am in CT as well. I will keep an eye out locally and let anyone know if I find the stuff they are looking for. Have a couple of small and private FFL's I use that have some stuff from time to time , believe it or not, usually from estates.
 
In CT as well. Will check, but may have some new 1lb cans of powders (no H1000 - sorry jakeb). Have some various bullets mainly in the mil calibers - .223, .308.

Definitely can part with:
- a box to 1.5 boxes of 75gr eldm.
- dillon .223 die set
- some 178 BTHP
- 12 ga shotgun target loads (couple cases - have to check brands - fiocchi and federal I think)

Looking for SPP.

Wish I would have seen this earlier - went through two stores today and I could have kept a better eye out...

Near the border of New Milford CT in Southern Dutchess Co.
I have to trade: CCI small pistol primers & Rem. STS 209 primers
I need: Fed. Lg. Rifle Primers & 10.5" 9mm AR9 barrel & new/used .223 wylde AR barrel 10.5/14.5
 
I'm in southern RI, subscribed.

I have some .308 projectiles I'd like to trade for either some CFE223, 3031, or small rifle primers.

I have:
175x 147gr FMJ BT not sure the manufacturer
70x cast 175gr .309" not lubed or sized, these were cast from a Lee C309-170-F mold, seen here.
50x Barnes 165gr TTSX BT
50x Sierra MatchKing 210gr HPBT
20x 155gr TMJ BT pretty sure these are Hornady
15x 150gr FMJ BT w/ cannelure, pretty sure they are also Hornady

Photos can be provided upon request. I will also be posting this on NortheastShooters.

Also have a set of Lee .308 Win dies....Gone pending trade.

FYI….Was at Cabelas this am in Hartford and they had ammo- 9mm, 5.56, limit 5 boxes or 250 rounds per customer. I guess you have to wait in line when the store opens there were 150 people standing inside in line at 10:00 am but still had some. They haven't gone up on prices like crazy either. Winchester training 9mm 115gr HP was $24 a box of 50 and Winchester M855 was $89 for 150 round pack.

I didn't realize they were doing this, but for guys who need ammo its not a bad way to go compared to paying stupid prices elsewhere.

My understanding is to purchase ammunition in Connecticut you need a permit. But if you live in Connecticut and you travel over the border to New York you can buy in person from dealer or individual.
 
Stopped Cabela's in East Hartford today they don't have shit. The LGS have more then them. I'm glad I have been stocking up for years. I never thought I would see the day when you couldn't find a box of 308 or 30-06 on the shelf. WTF!

Ammo will soon be the new currency. Ammo is to be bought, sold, and in an emergency traded.
 
Dug up a few hundred factory loaded 45 ACP I am willing to trade / sell. Looking for SPP (regular or magnum).

- Independence 230 gr - 100rds
- TZZ Military - 450 rds
- 22 LR CCI Quiet - 400 rounds. Have other 22 in all flavors as well - let me know what you are looking for

- Some misc AR parts - let me know if you are looking for anything particular

In storage out of state - available, but will take a few weeks to get:
- Hundreds of 1x Federal 308 brass
- Guessing a couple hundred 30-06. All M-2 Ball from LC or HXP headstamp


*Edited to add additional items.
