I have stopped using certain rifles due to the ammo is not carried in most stores. While I own a handgun in .41, I have only fired it a few times but even the store where it was purchased does not carry .41 ammo.
We all carry spare ammo in our vehicles. With the late Sheriff, he likely carried more than most. Yet if I were seriously carrying as he should have, the local availibility of ammo in my caliber would be a consideration in what I carried.
