Hi Guys,
I was just wondering how is the ammo situation by everyone? Where I live its starting to make a comeback slowly. I have noticed a lot of rifle ammo but if its pistol its still flying off the shelves. I still can't get any pistol ammo for my pistol at all
Let me know

I have been looking for 380 acp for my pistol and 303 british. Swiss 7.5x55 is still plentiful around here.
I just want some 303 plinking rounds

I've experienced no problems for .303 here.There was a problem finding 150 gr .303 for a while..till I switched vendors.Now the locker & cabin is full of fmj/174, 150 & 180 @ better prices, as well.
Never had a problem getting 6.5x55 swiss, either-but switched to PRIVI for that...better brass & better price

303 is easy enough for me.  Swiss GP11 is no real problem either.  Ditto with 45/70.  I seem to have fallen into the trap of collect weird rifles with odd calibres....

Its tough here to find anything as "exotic" as .303 round here. Most shoot win 32 Win spec. 7mm Rem Mag or the old "thuddy ought six" so thats what the local dealers keep.
 
I usually go to gun shows who seem to keep both milsurp & modern, or mail-order the PPU (Prvi Partizan) from "ammo to go"

Ammo is still tight in NC. You can finds some but, with a high price.
Always looking for military manuals, Dodge M37 items,books on Berlin Germany, old atlases ( before 1946) , military maps of Scotland. English and Canadian gun parts.

.303 is tough to find around here, but then it has been for years. There is a large supply of .30-06, 7.62x54R, and 7.62x39 though. Although it will clean out your life savings to buy a couple boxes
