Monday I scored 2 flats of Winchester AA Trap Loads at Wal-Mart. Someone pushed a cart full of ammo out of the back, and just left it there. So I grabbed both of them. No one was around. I didn't know if she would ring them up, but she did. I got so excited I had to remember what the hell I went in there for. (Bar & Chain oil).

I was at a gun show this weekend and saw .22 rimfire for $150.00 for a 500 round brick.I don't know if they sold any of it,But I sure as hell wasn't going to pay that much.I have a small fortune in my ammo locker at those prices.

I bet they sold ALL of it.
If you REALLY want to show off your wealth, Put a box of 9MM through a sheet of plywood.

I got a call from a friends widow the other day, she had some stuff of his that she wanted to give to me to do with as I please, among the contents was a case(1000) Federal 209
shotgun primers and 500 Federal Large pistol primers. Now I just have to find some Red Dot and wads and I'll be set to load some more 12 gauge CAS Loads.

SO THERE I WAS.   There I was.

The Beretta 2021 LOCAP USPSA Nationals presented by Federal  (Want to guess how many times we heard that?  20 to be exact.)

I opted for the Match Certified ammo, just so I could buy 1,000 rounds of it.  Federal Syntech AP 150gr.  I had never used it before.  But now I was committed to shooting it.  I knew a) It would probably work flawlessly.  I mean it's Federal's good stuff designed specifically for compeititon.  b) It wouldn't make power factor.   c)  I had no idea where my Point of Impact was going to be.

First shots were at 9am and I was on bay C2.   Warm up range was  on A5, 1/4 mile away, and guess what?   No shooting before...   guess...   9am.  I went into the first stage cold with new ammo.   a)  It shot flawlessly.   b) It was light shooting and by the skin of my teeth I mad PF on the last test shot (#7)  (125.05).  Of course had it not then the MD would have give me a wavier.  c) Pretty much went where my reloaded 147gr rounds went.

AND I HAVE 500+ ROUNDS LEFT OVER.     Bwahh-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.

for .22lr in the $.09 range... go directly to the corporate sites.... CCI, Federal, and Killough Shooting (Eley)... check as early as possible... I ordered some Federal Champion for .09, and with $150 order shipped free, but they did charge sales tax... around 10cents out the door ...

Have you seen how both Ford and  Chevy have thousands of trucks sitting waiting on chips?

Seems like Magtech is coming back.
I've seen some for UNDER $1 a round on some of the  sites.
