On sale again

Mine arrives Tuesday

So, was that based upon an order placed since this thread began or an older order?
Thanks,

Well that's certainly good news for the rest of us who ordered directly from Bushmaster as well.

It's exciting seeing all sorts of new 450 owners. It'll only get better the more of us there are!

I don't guess it matters when I get it, right now it's just a paperweight.
Can't find any ammo.

Anyone know how long this sale is? They always go on sale when I have been hit with unexpected bills...

A place out west of me has cases for $260 plus shipping. Roughly $28/box

That's about what I pay for a case. My local Smith includes me in his monthly order so I don't have to pay shipping.

With new brass running $1 per round shipped when you can find it, reloading with new components, mimicking factory loads costs you $33.70 a box. Because of the panic caused by intentional denial to market, of reloading components, it's cheaper to buy it already manufactured, which is exactly what the manufacturer wants. Once you've shot that new ammunition, reloading the second time reusing the brass and buying the rest of the components new, mimicking factory loads drops to $13.70 a box. Both prices assume you do not count the cost of the reloading dies and have all the other equipment for reloading already.

BTW, with sales tax in my state running $20 on a $260 purchase, mail ordering is the same price.

Well, not very happy. They sent part of the items I ordered, not my 450.
I didn't request they ship separately, now I have to pay shipping twice.
