I've checked and called at least a dozen major and minor suppliers of ammo, even places that I think don't move much ammo and no one has any Black Hills blue box available.

Is there anyone that still has this in stock or does anyone have any timeline from Black Hills themselves stating when they will be releasing some to the public again?

I've been wanting to do some long range matches but can't find any ammo with the exception of the $1 a round red box and hornady in stock anywhere.  Its not enjoyable when you need 50 or 100 rounds for the match knowing you just blew $50-100

And that is what?  $250 just to get all the equipment for a single stage press setup?  Not saying it wouldn't be nice, but right now, its a lot to put down to still not have any ammo since I have no brass, bullets, powder or primers.

Midway was selling the red box for 34.99 last month and I bought about 600 rounds. I think it went back to their normal price of 39.99 now.

Most of the blue box I bought last year was getting pretty beat up. I sent it back to BH. They told me they were having problems getting good brass. Maybe thats why they aren't producing it now just the red box.
