getting back to the original spirit of the thread; lately, I've seen very little in the way of ammo, especially at WalMart, Gander Mountain, Bass Pro, mom-n-pop shops, et al; even with some new arrivals in the collection, I have to be selective on what to shoot & how much, especially defensive stuff, to break-in and 'proof' selected loads with the guns they go with; I just found 3 boxes of Winchester WWB Personal Defense 110gr sjhp in .357 mag and was ecstatic!!! last week, I was perverbially doing cartwheels to find a box of Winchester Silvertip 110gr in .38 spl for my dad's S&W 642, even at $40 for that box of 50 rounds; I can tell you that ammunition manufacturing and sales is one area of the economy that doesn't need a stimulus package...Obama has been doing it since the election!!!
