Three of those 40 round Winchester white box 'value line' .223; a little experiment to see how their funky 45 grn JHP will function and group in an AR...

I didn't know it was ammo-anything, but I did buy 20 rounds of Cor-Bon 200 grain JHP .45 Colt yesterday. And I ordered 40 rounds (.45 Colt) from Cor-Bon the day before. And on like Friday I ordered just under 200 rounds of .45 Colt from Cheaper than Dirt.

So yeah, lots of .45 Colt.

I'm not sure when ammo day was,but I did pick up 550 rnds of .22s this weekend. Can't let the .22 supply get very close to low.

National Ammo Day (www.ammoday.com) is Wednesday, NOVEMBER 19th, 2003. (Drats, the day before payday.)
National Ammo Week is November 15-23, 2003

I am taking a little from this paycheck and the next paycheck and earmarking it for ammo. :D

I am trying to decide if I'll talk to the guys at the Super Wal-Mart to make sure they have what I need that week or if I want to spend my money with Doug Kiesler or Midway or Ammoman to show my support for them since that jerk in Kennedyland sued them. :cuss:

Despite it not being nat'l ammo day, i went to our local dick's sporting goods, and was pleasantly suprised by 50 rnd boxes of UMC 38 spl for 6 bucks a pop, so i picked up 6 boxes of those, and a thing of beneke slugs.

It'd be an odd day/week if I didn't buy ammo... :o

I need to get out to the range! I only have a month to shoot up enough ammo to justify buying more. I'm usually pretty well stocked up on ammo and reloading supplies.

I know! I just need to buy a gun in a new caliber :) Hmm . . . 9mm or .45 ACP . . . Maybe a .50 BMG? :D

Practice makes perfect. Just buy more next month.

Last year I participated and bought a few boxes of .38s. They are still sitting there. If I remember this year, I will try to buy some ammo every day of the week. The only factory ammo I really shoot is .22LR and Wolf .223.
Hey, I need a case of .45 ACP for my next class with Denny Hansen in December, and shotgun ammo for Gunsite 260 next year.

I think I'll buy a bunch of 10mm since I don't have one yet. Then I'll HAVE to get a gun ;)

I guess I could pick up some shot shells, clay birds, bullets, powder, primers, shotshell reloader and shot just for good measure :D
