Widerstand, from what I have heard the Cabellas in Springfield might be a good source of ammo and just down the road is the Barons Den. Probably gonna pay through the nose but they probably at least have it. NW Armory up in Milwaukie has been a good source for most everything except 22lr.

Yeah, I am looking for some surplus 7.62x54r mostly, ill take as many spam cans as I can find. I have a really nice 91/30 Hex receiver Mosin made in 31, and I have had it for 6 months without a round out of it cause I can't find any online or locally.... Also some .22 CCI... I have called every shop in Portland Metro, and checked online all over the place and can't find anything. Expect a spam can of 7n1 7.62x54r for $350 which I ain't payin.
 
Ah, I see. Yup, right now those are some tuff calibers to find. I had to practically beg a friend of mine to sell me some of his 25K 22 rounds. And then he would only part with 2 500 bricks at an unreasonable markup (yeah, I know, some friend huh) Everyone is hording. I would too but I can't find any to horde, LOL.
Wish I could help you out with a source. I'll keep an eye out though
Good luck

So.....this isn't easy. I just got home from the er and I'm going to be out of work for at least a week. Then I have an unexpected large expense hitting me at the end of the month also. What does that mean? It means I physically feel like shit and shouldn't go down there. I won't have much money to pay what needs be paid. And I'm so not happy about this. I was very much looking forward to seeing everyone again. I miss you guys.

Coming down here will lift you're spirits and you'll feel much better after having been here, so much so, that you'll become a money making dynamo. Furthermore, I'll get you some moonshine and an Official Ethan Becker autographed left breast on the woman of you're choice.
 
found about this gathering's weekend is a big spot for vacations at my job, so even if i WAS going to think about trying to go, it's not happening this year.

I'll bring you. Few rounds of Bulgarian light ball, 54R.
 
To my gracious host I'm getting off early on Friday and heading south. I am checking my load out right now and have one question would anyone be opposed to or benefit from my motor home being on site? I am prepared for being called out, just figured I'd ask, thanks again.
Respectfully, Chance.
 
I'm not sure how much space there is for an RV there. If it is the same place we were last time we all just parked on the side of a logging road and it was fairly tight quarters.

Yeah not much room up there for something like that.

It's like a one lane logging road.
 
I figured it'd be outa place just over thinking, I am really looking forward to meeting everyone and getting some field time.
Respectfully, Chance.
 
Me too. I have no idea what to bring, what to expect, or even if I'll be let in. But its fun planning for the unknown, LOL
 
Widerstand I fell some trees for a neighbor of mine and just got off the phone with him he's bringing me a box ammo for your gun. He rattled off a bunch of stuff all I remember is boat tail so hopefully it's good stuff.

Whoa thanks man!
 
Does anyone have some shears for leather? I have a super nice piece of leather for strops I wanted to share, and if someone brings shears and cuts me off what I need everyone else can dig in and take what they want.
