13FLAT for me.

Academy in Grapevine TX had a pretty good stock of everything, including some .380. I needed only 9mm for plinking and forgot to check the .380 price.

Walmart in Bedford had a reasonable choice today. They had some Federal ($16.97), Tula, and WWB .380 auto. I bought some of the Federal.

And the .380 is also on sale at $13.99, which is also relatively good these days.

Academy in Grapevine had .380 blazer for $18 and change on Saturday afternoon. I have not seen .380 on the shelf there in forever.

They only had 2 100-packs of 55gr FMJ .223 ($39 ea), so I snagged them both. Well, they had 3 boxes, but an older gent in front of me was on the phone to his son and I'm going "Nooo, the kid is going to tell dad to snatch all 3" - but he only took the one

At 9pm this supply was gone except for 18 boxes of 40 S&W.

Ahh the magic is they don't have to do much, or spend anything, other than create a scare and we self-immolate a sport. Ooooooooo.

I did find that Academy in Grapevine had some 380 this morning. But not for me.

Academy at 820 in NRH had some 45acp jhp, but nothing else.

Anyone find it interesting (maybe even machiavellian) that enthusiasts themselves have more effectively undermined shooting (particularly handgun sporting and reloading) than any legislation I can remember? Hope none of the anti- folks are taking notes.

Not stocked anymore

Mostly luck if you trip over a once-a-week delivery with some helpful notice from folks here.

The Academy stores I can get to have nothing but some pricey carry 45 JHP. The Wal-marts cupboards are bare too (not seen any pistol ammo - zero - in the last few weeks.

Large pistol primers anywhere? fagedaboutdit. Has to be burning the hobby reloaders too.

Some of the online sellers have some common target ammo, but it carries a premium and about a "50 rd box" penalty for shipping, but it is at least somewhat affordable. I guess it is good - slow down and aim more.

Academy said they had some .380 in the am, but it was gone almost instantly. The did have a few boxes of 45/40/9mm.

What is the deal with the .380 anyway? It seems to be full metal unobtainium for some reason, and priced higher than .45 auto and 9mm. Its just a pint-sized,cut down 9mm (i.e. 9mm Kurz).

I would have guessed the manufacturers have had a handle on the supply/demand numbers for years not to be behind the curve. That many people carrying pocket protectors?

With the exception of basspro.com (out of stock, but will take an order for 30 days down the line), there rest have nothing for plinking ammo and/or the prices are about 3x the pre- omgitsobamaarrgg hoarder prices.

I drove by basspro, 2 walmarts, and academy today to look at their bare shelves.

If you notice any other online resources to order a couple of boxes of reasonably priced target ammo, please put up a post.

Thanks

Anyone know of an on-line source for an occasional box of 9mm or 45. Not interested in hoarding, just a periodic trip to the range.

Slow and shipping is ok, just trying to get a few boxes from time to time.

Thanks.

The two wal-marts by me had empty cases (mid-cities, dfw). Would be nice if this hoarding mentality would dissipate.
