    I use the MBC 124gn TCFP in my 38 Super. Like them real well.

    Where do you get them? Is there a website to order from?

    I received a bulk shipment of 3000 125gr TCFP (IDP #6) for my Supers, like them a lot. Longshot, Power Pistol, Herco, WSF, AA#7, IMR 800X et al all work well with these BHN 18 hardcast bullets.

    I recently got bullets and Longshot powder from Natchez Shooters Supply.
    I ordered 10mm brass from Starline on Monday expecting a long delay. The order arrived today. So, I think the supplies are starting to return (or at least backorders aren't as long).

    Thumbs down reloading supplies availability

    Here in the Northeast the shelves are pretty much wiped clean. Reloading supplies such as primers, bullets and powder are rare as hens teeth. Even .22 LR is tough to get. Some shops are really gouging people. I was in one shop and they were selling 12 Ga rifled slugs (5 shells to a box) for 17$, prior to all of this, they were selling for 5-6 dollars a box. I will not buy anything from a store that does that to its customers. A few shops have raised prices modestly and have various calibers available but without any consistency. These shops typically limit purchases to 5 boxes per customer to try to give everyone a chance to get some ammo. You cannot get .223, 308, .45 or 9mm. I have not seen 7.62 X 39 in months.

    I am pretty well set for pistol and rifle (matter of fact I could supply 3d world countries with ammo) but desperately need some Red Dot and 20/28 for the shotguns as well as some 20ga hulls.

    I have been using those in my Super also. Had to mess with the OAL for awhile. I ordered 3K of those and 3K of Cowboy #4 in January. The Cowboy #4 shipped immediately, but it took a week or so for the Supers to ship.

    Here in the Great White North I am still able to find virtually everything I want within a week or 2.
