Hopefully everyone is stocked up

Just when we are seeing 9mm sell for around $220 per 1000. Luckily I have around 4000 rounds now but the way my boy has started liking to shoot a lot that may not last long.
Could always use more .38 special for my sons Python if anyone sees a good deal.
As of now, I don't think 9mm/pistol ammo is the big concern.Just when we are seeing 9mm sell for around $220 per 1000. Luckily I have around 4000 rounds now but the way my boy has started liking to shoot a lot that may not last long.

Yeah. Never underestimate the effects of panic buying. Eg. I still remember friends in Cleveland, sending me photos of the lines going around the block at the LGS, when the shutdowns were announced and suddenly, EVERYONE decided they had to get guns/ammo.There will be a trickle down effect though. If people can't hoard 556/223, they'll go to 9mm and 10mm, etc. When that starts getting expensive or scarce, you'll see 12 guage shells vanishing, etc.
Similar things have happened in the past.
Good luck!The FK2 and DEK1 just waiting for my son so they can skin a deer. Youth hunt all weekend, wish us luck!

For those kinds of things, the reality is, those guys aren't really training their sight alignment. There's not enough time. They're training their instinctive alignment/muscle memory.I just ran across "pewview" on youtube. He's a firearms enthusiast that does trick shots, etc. such as shooting clays out of the air with a 9mm pistol. I'm not sure if he's a competitive shooter, but I would assume so.
Here's what I'm pondering: he said it's harder to shoot a clay out of the air with a red dot than with iron sights. I would think that a red dot would be easier because you don't need to line up 3 components (rear sight, front sight, target/clay). He was saying that it's harder because you can lose the red dot easier if you're not aligned properly. I can definitely see the merit in what he's saying.
What do you all think?
raise them in the ways they should goWell the day couldn’t have ended any better. We watched 7 does this evening and then with only about 4-5 minutes of light left to see through the scope this guy walks in at 75 yards. He was full rutting and zeroing in on where the does last were. He stopped broadside right in front of us.
Literally my 12yo son’s 2nd time to hunt today and he gets a 8pt buck. It wasn’t the huge guy he missed this morning but I couldn’t be more proud of him! I started hunting at age 7 with my dad and didn’t get my first buck until I was 16.
