Ammo update (good news!)

Intercooler · March 12 2014 04:49:01 PM MDT

A couple of good points I wanted to throw out there.

Last week my Brother who works for ATK (Federal, CCI, etc...) told me the forecast looks good the next 36 months and they are about caught up. We have put ammo orders in during this time, but have received zero! He was told the next buy we might just get some of what we order. My plan is to put in for a case of .22, .357 Mag, .44 Mag and 10mm FMJ and the new 180gr JSP. Maybe I will at least get one ${$default_grin_smiley}$
The second thing is today when I went into Walmart and picked up a box of 9mm the attendant told me the 3 box limit during the madness was squashed. He said some hoarding is still going on because a customer bought 20 boxes of Tula 9mm steel cased. He said they have been replenishing pretty good now!

Cool! ${$default_cool_smiley}$

Maybe your brother can convince Speer to offer a 10mm load, say, a 200 grain Gold Dot at 1100. ${$default_wink_smiley}$

I think we need something not out there yet. An all new 190gr HST!

That would be nice.

That would be a dream come true. ${$default_grin_smiley}$ ${$default_grin_smiley}$

But make that also available as a component... ${$default_tongue_smiley}$

they make the HST work good and hold up in 125gr 357 sig velocities, i'm sure they could make it work in a 190gr or 200gr moving 1200fps. Heck they could even make two loads. Do a federal Tactical bonded 200gr and an HST 190gr. the more the merrier. i think i've posted this before but since I bought my first 10mm in 2011 3 coworkers and my soon to be wife have bought them as well. it is such a great round for a full size pistol.

Great work!! I have only succeeded at bringing one person over so far. I've put out the good word to many and I think I may have a 2nd person jumping on the 10 train soon.
