Good luck with any ammo. Possibly GATS on the hollow point? I hope you find what you are looking for.

I have orders staged throughout the year. Both of my January shipments on 9mm and 22LR were pushed back until the end of March. I'm sure the rest of the orders I have down the road will get pushed back as well. I'm going back online and getting more. It'll be like gold and if I get to much I can always barter it at a gun store for a new toy.

This Obama guy and his zealot zombie liberal friends and associates are real idiots. How much longer before people collectively stand up and say no more.

Similar to the shortage of 2008.

I think Cabela's is pretty well stocked. You might have a look at the Dick's on route 12 over by you?

Round ball is all you need for practice with a box of specialty for home defense.

Gander Mtn in Kenosha had Remington Golden Sabre in 9mm JHP 147 and 124 grain the weekend before last. They aren't giving it away, and you may want to call first.
Cabelas in Hoffman has lots of Lellier & Bellot FMJ 9mm. I never heard of it, and have never tried it. I will be trying it next week though, since I bought 10 boxes and there's not much else around. I haven't seen any Federal around lately.

Good luck finding ammo!

Walmart Darien this morning had some .223, but just about gone.. no 9mm, I think outof .45 there.. but had .40 all types of shot gun shells in stock

Cabelas Hoffman Estates today had a I think 3 or 4 kinds of 9mm pretty well stocked.. they had many other calibers as well.. lots of .45 I believe.. no .223 or .22LR... all types of shot gun shells in stock


Gander Mountain, Joliet, no .22lr, no 9mm, no .223, I think they had .45 in stock... all types of shot gun shells in stock

Can't remember each one..

The moral of the story is if you go near a store that sells ammo you stop in and check. If you need it, buy it, don't sweat the price...

^^ More senseless violence!

Maybe if he had been sentenced for this he would have been off the street?

"Prosecutors said Garnica had previously been charged with stealing a vehicle, a charge that was later dropped down to criminal trespass to a vehicle."
