Earlier today I met up with my bud, the LGS "counter man." We got around to ammo prices and he told me: "We have Hornady SD ammo for $89.95 a box of 20." With a dead pan serious look, that's the going price. I thought: I'd really need to be taking incoming fire before I cut loose with a $4.50 bullet. This ain't no "that's my parking space" or "what're you lookin' at" ammo. Serious times indeed. I'd need to go to the ATM if'n I emptied my magazine. I sincerely hope this ain't going to the "new normal." Joe
