    Ammo availability possible improvements

    I went into the local sportsman's store here in town and the shelves were full of .45, .380, 38 special, and some other FMJ and defense ammo. Prices were about 4 dollars a box more than pre-panic but still a lot less than internet scalpers. Things may be getting better.

    No 9mm FMJ or .22 ammo though.

    Academy Sports and Walmart still get occasional shipments and prices there are pre-panic normal.
    The only thing better than having all the guns and ammo you'd ever need would be being able to shoot it all off the back porch.

    Yeah, as we approach our credit card limit, the buying begins to slow down.

      Same here, one of the two gun stores has a bunch of ammo. I am ready for more range time.

            None. I was thinking about reloading and have lots of brass but there are no reloading components anywhere around here.

              I went to the range Monday and they were low on range ammo. I still went ahead and used a box of their .40 S&W but they had none of the normal $16 AAA. I got a box of Independence using Blazer Brass for $24. They had that and PMC for .40... both for $23.95 a box. They did have lots of long guns, but the range ammo supply was really low. The time before that they told me that they could only get half of what they ordered. I guess things have gotten worse.

The bathroom is at the end of a long hall at the back of the store. I was surprised to see that the hall was full of stacks of ammo on both sides that was about 4 feet high. I snapped these pictures of the .223 and 9mm stacks.

                  All the ammo went to Utah. What do they want for it?

                        The .223 is the Federal American Eagle Tactical. It is $10.99 for a box of 20. I didn't buy any. I have lots of .223 and thought that was a bit high priced.

                        The 9mm is Blazer Brass for $14.99/50 rounds.

                          That is a little high but not the worse I have seen.

                            I'll take some .223! Heck I love federal, and at that price I can buy and pay shipping and still be cheaper than what most places want for steel case wolf. I wish that store would ship
                            No sir, I do not own any guns. I sold them all in fear that they might grow legs and murder me and my family since they've been portrayed as such evil objects by our current administration

                              Saw wolf 223 today for $20 a box!! Saw 9mm for $34.99 and $36.99 for 50.
                              However, we did luck out at walmart and found box of 100 federal for $24.99. I think it's great that Walmart has tried to hold their prices down on what they do get in.

                              Cokeman, those photos look like heaven!!!!!!!
