Is anyone seeing much .380 ammo?

Between SC and VA, I'm not seeing too much of it. Almost as hard to find as .22LR.

I can fairly readily get it at the LGS at home in SC. I've found it at Walmart occasionally (TUL Brass Maxx). I've gotten a few boxes from friends who had some on hand.

Me too I have 1200 rounds ready to go plinking if you aint reloading then you are pissing and moaning.

.380 is always scarce down here on the border. Most of it goes to Mexico, as it is one of the less illegal calibers over there.

I've just reloaded the last of my .380 brass with the last of my Berry's plated bullets. Time to start casting.

Why must ammo be purchased on a local level, other than to save on (retail) shipping costs, or help support local gun shops?


TMJ Hyperclean and CCI are listed this minute on Gunbot, at .40-.45/rd.
My apology, I should have read the OP's fine print.

It seemed rare and overpriced, so I gave up and bought the dies. Extreme bullets for
The 380 semes like a deal.

Interesting. That's about the price I can buy it for from my LGS.

Just left my local Bass Pro, and they were shelving a case of Winchester SXZ (whatever that is) .380 ammo. Two of the guys working there were talking about how they had had several cases of Remington-UMC ammo also in .380 in the back, apparently for some time, and no one had bothered to put it out. I have plenty of .380 for my limited use of that caliber, but grabbed one of the Winchester boxes.

What I was glad to find in there was some just-stocked Remington-UMC ammo in .32ACP. Took two boxes of that, and 100 rounds (the limit) of Federal Champion .22LR.
