I get it now....The price of cartridges went up because someone with money wanted them and bought them? Or because the Duponts have a Helicopter hanger...Yeah, now it's clear.....Thanks...Where can I rent a .22?

Yep, the rich are different. My sister and her husband used to be care takers for a man on the Forbes 400 list. They had an estate on the Wye River in Md. When the man bought it, his wife didn't like where the in ground pool was so they had it dug up and moved over 5 feet so that when they and their guests exited the back door they wouldn't have to walk too close to it.

Every year they had a "spring social" lawn party. Dick Cheney would helicopter in on Marine 2 and land on the lawn. One year the wife told my Brother in law that the leaves on the tree in the middle of the circular drive way were dusty and would he please dust them?

The wife toured Monticello one year and decided she wanted a kitchen garden just like the one at Monticello, so she directed my BIL to hire contractors to plant a garden exactly like the one in Monticello. The only thing was Eastern Shore summers were too hot for her, so the family summered in New England and none of the help was allowed to eat the veggies growing in the garden in Md. She used to accuse the help of stealing her veggies.

Oh yeah, the rich are frequently different.

Some of the poor are different too. Many of them, like Jagermeister, exhibit frequent class envy. The aforementioned DuPont family runs a giant corporation that employs 52,000 people who also pay taxes and they support many times that number of people when they spend their income.

Geniuses like Jagermeister think that you can tax the rich into oblivion, and they will still stay here and keep on employing tens of thousands of middle class taxpayers who in turn support the millions who won't work at all. This convinces them to believe the B.S. from anti-gun socialists like Obama, Hillary, or Bernie. So they vote for them, and then act surprised when new gun laws are passed, ammo prices rise, and they become even poorer and are reduced to renting their .22 rimfire rifles and having to buy cheap field grade shotguns on a layaway plan.

Hope and Change Jag... Hope and Change. Here is another nice Norinco Model 99 that you might rent to own. It looks as if it was torch colored by your buddy Ed Good.

The choice will be between Trump or Clinton. Whoever wins isn't going to help man or woman working for a living. I buy ammo whenever I find it at decent price.

I admit pack of certain ammo is more expensive than perfectly good bottle of French dinner wine. In my case it it about twice the cost, but cost box of regular .30-06 soft points is about equal to a bottle.

I think we have some Bernie huggers....
