I have given up on getting any local .380 ammo on our westward rv trip. I have been shut out in New Mexico and Arizona. I finally broke down and ordered 150 rounds from Gander Mountain for $19.95 per 50. It should be here by early next week.

Well, sorry to hear that Joe. Bummer. I think you'll find when you get back home, you won't have to forage for .380 ammo. It's not everywhere, but you can find it in several places.
Safe journey!

DubiousDan wrote:On another forum I read recently that some people are having problems with WWB .45 feeding in some pistols like Sig P220s. They report cartridges with out of spec and different overall lengths in the same box that won't fit in some magazines and failure to feeds. I've shot a lot of WWB in 40 S&W without any issues so this surprised me. Anyone here having problems?
I recently bought some WWB 100 count boxes in 9mm and 45 but haven't shot any yet. It keeps raining when I have time off. I was disappointed in that the 9mm was just packed loosely in the box and the 45s where packed neatly with cardboard between layers. I guess I should be thankful that I was able to get it at a reasonable price from Walmart.
I don't know if this is related to the problems you're having, but all WWB isn't the same. Look on each box to see where it was manufactured.
IIRC, the 100ct boxes are made in USA while the 50ct boxes are loaded in Europe (Serbia, I believe).

Just left the Kemah Wally World with four boxes of Federal 9mm ~$9.47/box.
The ammo case is bulging at the seams with everything but .32 and .380.

I continue to buy at wall-mart. Bought 1 100 ct Winch .40sw and 2 federal. 1st time the kahr failed to load and jammed with the Winch-- Federal no problem smooth. at 13 per 50 it is the best deal out there. Even on-line. I cant find anything better for the range. If anyone has found better please share.
