My local WM is out of .22 ammo. They expect a shipment of the bulk in a few weeks. I stock up heavily to avoid possible high taxes and because of an admitted small survivalist paranoia. I have quite a bit of loaded cf ammo on hand which I can reload. My main shooting passion is traditional muzzle loaders with real black powder. Fortunately, I have a substantial stock of bp on hand. But, I'm trying to also build up my supply of soft lead.
