Any luck finding ammo?

Jcastaneda1105 · Aug 3, 2020

Looking for 380, 223, and 45acp.
Any luck finding any out there?

I have plenty of luck finding it as it drops out of my press.

I found 223 at academy about three weeks ago. Haven't looked for the others.

Hope this helps. It's pretty slim pickens everywhere. The high priced hunting and self defense ammo is still pretty much available. Full metal jacket.....fugitaboutit.

Academy - go early.

Gun deals - Keep checking. Have ordered 9mm brass Herter's for .19 a round shipped from Bass Pro.

This. I was on ammoseek two days ago and wolf 223 is fifty cents per round and only listed available from one source. Steel cased commie 223 is 50 cpr! 9mm plinking is basically gone too.

Edit: crap, meant to quote Bozz.

Find all of those calibers rolling around the floor board of my truck , rolling around the trunk of my car, couch seat cushions and every time I open the door to my reloading room.
Didn’t you buy any spares over the last 3.5 years?

dennisz · Aug 3, 2020

The Saxet show had plenty of ammo, as long as you were willing to take the hit to your wallet, .223 was on the order of $.80 per round, 9mm was about $30 to $40 per box, not for me.

Can you ever have enough?

No real deals to be found but its out there, however you will need to devote some time at monitoring the search sites if you want to get any. Most selections at the bottom of the current price range is selling out within 10 to 20 minutes of posting.

r/gundeals is a good place to watch as well, but again you have to be almost constantly watching it and quick with the purchase.

Also, knowing who actually has inventory and not just taking back orders will help too. If you don't know who is who, there might be a bit of a learning curve.

You can find ammo, it's available. It's just very expensive compared to what we've become accustomed to. I am not buying ammo until after the election and if the election goes badly it will be reloading for me for probably the rest of my life.

Jarine88 · Aug 3, 2020

We think at different levels than most people. I’ve made several trips to the range recently, and I am watching my supply of 9mm dwindle faster than planned. While the media would still say I have a horde, stash or arsenal, I’m starting to be concerned that I will run out of FMJ ammo after another 5-10 more range visits.

I think I may just start taking the .22LR for a while.

Dougw1515 · Aug 3, 2020

I'm still finding 9mm available at some point during the week. Today, had my daughter with me, picked up 300 rds 9mm 115gr brass case at one Academy then went to the next and picked up 300 rds 115gr steel case. At that one I could have picked up 1200 rds of 115gr w/steel case(200rds per box X 6 boxes) for .18 cents a round but I just didn't want that much steel casings. That was at the Academy on I-45 just south of NASA Parkway. Also went to Cabela's and Field & Stream on I-45 and got nada...

Having a reloading press takes some of the pressure off being at the mercy of the retailers. I am seriously considering adding a press for doing shotgun shells next. Got lots of hulls saved up.

popsgarland · Aug 3, 2020

Found some 223, Rem FMJ @ $16.95 for a box of 20 and 40 S&W for a box of 50 for $29.99.
This was 2 days ago. He didn't have much of anything else and not very much of what I bought.

That lee press is inexpensive.

Two Walmarts near me always have 22 and 223, one usually has 300 blackout.

Any luck finding ammo?
