I Feel Very Fortunate for where I Live

I read all of your threads and I see there being a lack of 7.62x39 and insane prices for .223 or lack of it. In my town, there is still a bunch of 7.62x39 for normal price and Wolf loose pack .223 is $9/20. But a couple hours away I got some PMC Bronze .223 for $8 a box. I have probably 500 rounds that I have stocked up on since Sandy Hook. From what I read, other parts of the country (not Idaho) is much worse looking for ammo?

Then keep buying it cheap and stacking it deep, as it were, when you can.
I don't see prices falling again... sad to say.

Unfortunately, as a senior in high school and working Saturdays and Sundays, I can't afford much ammo. As well as the 4wd went out on my truck

Don't shoot what you have until you can stock up.

In New Hampshire there is basically no .223/5.56 and very little 7.62x39. I'm with you on that boat, I graduated from highschool last year and I have a lot of expenses besides shooting. Lucky for me the only real expensive ammo I buy is .40 S&W, other than that 7.62x54R and .22LR are both nice n cheap
