Even if you reload you still have to buy bullets... unless you cast your own. :thumbsup:

I mine my own lead and copper, and tin, then I dig up the ingredients for my own gunpowder, I then combine everything to fill my needs of ammo, I never need the stores, I AM PREPARED! :rolll :rolll :rolll :rolll

That would be funny if someone did that, and I would be very impressed, but it's not worth the effort. :bigear:

Well, I'm pretty sure I could mine a couple years' supply of lead from the land I've been shooting on, and I do have load data for BP that I've tested in a couple of my guns.

Wow. I couldn't find bread either. I'm never worried about ammo, and didn't notice they were out.

Ugh... Like it wasn't already a state of emergency, you had to stare directly into the 'eye' of somethin' else! :smilelol5:


You folks be safe, I'm praying for you.

You're lucky. The Wal-Marts here in Austin don't carry buckshot at all, let alone 3" Magnum 000.

Actually there were plenty of bullets in town. I really believe WM was probably the only one out.
Friday I was in bill's Gun Trader & they had PLENTY. Higher than WM but plenty.
I will bet East Tex Pawn had ammo too.
