el Godfather,
I shoot .25 ACP as well, and am much less worried about it. Heck they still make some pretty nice pistols in this caliber, like the tip-up-barreled Berettas. The old .25 will be around longer than alot of other calibers/cartridges.
BSA1,
"If you have had difficulty finding ammo and reloading components since 2008 then I respectfully suggest you do not know where and how to look."
I have looked around a fair ammount, in both brick and mortar stores (my small LGS, and bigger places like Cabelas) and online (Midway, Natchez, etc). Supply has been spotty at best for a long while now. But also keep in mind that I tend to shoot alot of "oddballs". I don't have a .223 or a 9x19, I have werid stuff like 9x18, .30-40 Krag, etc. I am thinking that I need to go more "mainstream" in the future...
"Well you have three years to get ready and lots of Folks on THR that will help you find ammo and reloading supplies."
Difficult to get ready with all the other people out there doing the same thing too. This is why I can't find .22LR anywhere. The time to get ready would have been 2007 or before. Now I have to try to "catch up", and on a limited budget too (so even when I can find supplies I can't stock up as much as I'd like to).
"Personal choice FMJ vs. JHP"
I almost always choose JHP. Only real exception to this is with the .25, I carry it with FMJ (although I do have some 35gr hollow points for it just in case I change my mind LOL)
