In which case, consider buying in BULK. I use Natchez Shooter's Supply and Georgia Arms for my shooting (range) needs, and their prices are reasonable. Shipping may be the deal breaker for you -- so you've got to find a good vendor close to home.

So far Ive been using targetsportsusa.com and have been really happy with them, I took advantage of their ammo prime membership so I save more and get free shipping on all orders.

Get the conversion barrel and just keep doing what you're doing.
I don't reload, either, but probably because I don't want to spend my time doing that -- and don't know where I'd set up the equipment. If I were shooting more, I might make a bigger effort to get into my own reloading gear, but... it would probably be DILLON gear, and that can add up. |

I shoot weekly with my wife and we have been limiting ourselves to about 100-150 rounds between us. Id definitely love to reload but I dont have the space and to be honest I dont know if I have the patience/motivation for collecting my brass every time. Im going to look into what the cost of buying brass and everything would come out to that way just to know the cost vs just buying ammo online. Lately Ive been buying steel case ammo at around $140-150 a case of 9mm shipped and it hasnt given me a problem so far. |

Interestingly the 9mm to 40 conversion is on sale for $199 at the moment.

As noted before, I also got their Browning Hi-Power barrel some years back and have been VERY satisfied with that product, as well. It's a beautiful barrel that performs at LEAST as well as the original factory barrel (which somehow got damaged, with rifling messed up mid-barrel... Don't think it was anything I did.) |

The JHP stuff I was using would bite into the feed ramp; other designs (different brand) might work better. I don't remember what I used... |

I got to the range today and even the FMJ had feed issues, it was good to get some malfunction drill practice, and they actually had the FNS-9 magazines at my range for $4 more than online so I just bought one and it was perfect.

Check www.highplainsgunshop.com, as they have them on sale every now and then.
I didn't see anything today -- or the site just isn't working right. |
