Made a score in town today

Had to go to town for a haircut and the 3rd and last shot of my grease job in my left knee for this 6 months and stopped by both WM's. At the downtown store the sporting goods manager had a buggy with some ammo that had just came in and the only 38 ammo he had was a case of Win PDX1 Defender 38+P and as I had no PD ammo for my GP100 I got a box, $27.79 total for 20 rds. Stopped by the one on the north side of town on the way home and he had 2 boxes of Win White Box 100 rds for $37.10 total up $.75 from the 3rd. Guy in line ahead of me was going to buy both boxes but when he found out I wanted one he let me have one. He went on the buy about $150 more of the Tulammo in various calibers. I was lucky. The manager at the old store said that they had received a memo yesterday that WM was NOT going to stop selling guns and ammo in spite of the rumors on the internet.

Good, I hope they don't buckle under Hussein Obama's pressure.

Went to our BPS earlier. No 22 period and almost ever ammo shelf was empty of every caliber.

Pm sent

I got a text the other day from another member. Sportsman's will stock some of their ammo in the morning, but will not stock the rest of the day. I called my son, 556 at $9. per 20. limit 3. Told me to get all I could. So I made 3 trips into the store. Then picked up my grand daughter from school. We returned and made 3 trips into the store. I was looking for new mags. for my pistol, have to be ordered. Online price is $10 cheaper for 1.

Cray, did you go to Desoto Defense?

Walmart had Tul .223 yesterday for $5.34 per box. Olive branch store

I try to stay away from the steel stuff.

I asked the guy ahead of me that let me have the box of 100 WWB because he bought a bunch of Tulammo how it shoot and he said OK for plinking, never used it. Do you think it will cycle a SR9c and/or be OK in a GP100. It sure is cheap to buy and they seem to have it when they have nothing else. Wouldn't want to harm my guns. I know it's not as good as others but if it goes bang.

I wouldn't put it in either of those Steve. It's good for AK's and SKS's though.

Thanks.

If you fire enough of it at one time, the chamber will start heating up. The paint finish on steel cases starts coming off. As long as it's hot, everything works fine. Let it cool and they start sticking. Have to use a bore brush the size of the chamber on a drill to clean it out. I do shoot some of the steel cases, but would rather have reloadable brass.

i will take them :biggrin
