I'm a Ramblin' Man......seaching for .380

[Green Mountain Gringo]

amazing the shortage in ammo.  We've all been posting or starting threads about the subject.  Everywhere I go I get the same response...."Ain't gettin' no deliveries", "Wish I could help you son."

For the last few days I've been on the road for work and kept setting my GPS for anything that looks like a gun shop.  GPS's suck when it comes to locating current businesses though. 

Anyhooo.. I stocked up on .380 ammo at a small gun shop that I never knew existed and found some Federal Hydra Shock at Dicks.   (Yes,  I said Dicks).

the cupboard is filling up with all the correct calibers....and all is right with my world.

good for you I have a couple of friends that haven't found any 380s so hold on them tight

Hey Green Mountains, while DRTV was "down", I searched and searched for ammo. .380 seems especially bad. Cheaperthandirt.com had 100 rds of PMC for almost $70.00!

It was awful. Everyone SOLD OUT.

There is a gun show here in Ft. Laud, that usually has a big Georgia Arms dealer that comes well stocked. We'll see.

Recon on another forum, had random restocking of .380 at Wal-Mart, Gander etc,... but people are not getting 1 or 2 boxes, their getting 5, 7 or all they got!

I hope it "calms the hell down", but if one goes to a store to buy ammo, and its not there, when they find it, they get ALOT.

Thus creating a double-edged scenario.

Hornady from Cabelas.  They had an exclusive on TAP-FPD in 380 (as I bought some), but it's not listed now.  They DO list Critical Defense Handgun ammo in 380.

Is it cruel to mention how much I love my Glock 9mm? But Overload is right. Gander does have the Hornady .380 critical defense for $20. This is on "sale', but the price is good until 4-20 (someone at Gander has a sense of humor). If they're not in your locale,
try them online.

I can't find any in stores, either. I just loaded up 200 rounds. Would have done more, but that's all the brass I had

That's ok. The only 380 I have, right now, is an LCP and that's not what I consider a shoot-a-lot piece.

I gotta agree.  They do bark.

The hydra shock says it is low recoil so I gotta try them out in my Elsie P.
