I haven't tried to buy ammo since January - is it an issue any longer?

I gave up on shooting since Jan/Feb with all of the BS. Is it still an issue finding something like 9mm, or is it back to "normal"?

I haven't had any unusual trouble with anything but .22 bullets.

.357 mag is the only non-hunting thing I ever look for though.

9mm is hit and miss in stores, easier to find online...

40 and 45 are a bit more available but I've still only seen spotty availability of 9mm unfortunately.

I found some .22 and 9mm here in GA, but I was limited to one box per caliber.

I've got six boxes of WWB hollow points from Academy in .357 if you are interested...I have the receipt...I bought them in case someone I know might need them...my cost was $28.99 each + 8.75% sales tax...buy as littele or as many you'd like at that price...

I'll be at the LSU game this Saturday if interested.

Academy has recently revised their buying restriction to 9MM and .22LR.

Saw some .45 recently at the WalMart in Eunice. Yikes! $43 for a box of 100.

No thanks, I'll keep reloading, I have plenty of brass in that caliber.

And as others have said, .22 is still scarce.

Just went to Academy in Lake Charles. Plenty of everything but 9mm and .22 were at customer service. limit 3 boxes if you are buying a gun, 2 if you arent.

www.cajunammo.com has a decent selection but popular rounds don't last. They get orders turned around real fast and don't gouge.
