My local gun shop has ammo, but he started buying up some while ago. I stopped into a nearby Wal-Mart today (to buy cables for a DVD hook-up) and checked the ammo cabinet. Whew! I have NEVER seen it so bare. It was far worse than 2008, after Obama's first election. They had some shotgun ammo in light-weight loads, and two off-brand boxes of .380 ACP. Oh, and one box of .44 magnum.

The place where I buy reloading stuff is completely out of stock on JHP bullets in .45 automatic.
