People Laughed

Some laughed at me when I bought the guns, but I can still get ammo at normal prices.



.38 Super and .270 Winchester are still in stock at pre-Wu Ping Cough / pre-BLM prices.

While the lack of rounds is a bit of concern, my Gov't Model was banned from two bowling pin matches because I kept winning.

I've gotten all five rounds touching at 100 yards with the Savage.

I shoot them well, what can I say?

Always keep a brace of guns in an oddball, but still produced, caliber just in case the popular stuff gets hard to find.

    "Always keep a brace of guns in an oddball, but still produced, caliber just in case the popular stuff gets hard to find." Well said. A bolt rifle in 7.62x39 to me is such an animal. Especially if you were a fan of the semi-autos that chambered that round before it became . If a lower cost version is wanted, the plain jane 30-30 Winchester lever gun will get the job done.

    Handgun - a bit more challenging. If you have a Ruger Blackhawk in .45acp and .45 LC, that has possbilities.

      7.62x39 is mainstream, not oddball.

      The metric isn't a gun that's odd for the caliber but common enough that they make ammo all year but unpopular enough that Wal Mart has it when a Democrat is doing well in the polls.

    Other calibers that remained on the shelf thru the past two ammo shortages are 30-30, 243, 270, 7mm Rem mag, & 300 Win msg.
