Gonna be buying a few cases momentarily due to all the madness on earth.
Would do the same if my reloading situation was up and running but with 9mm being about .23 it’s pretty cheap to me while I save money and time doing a plethora of other things.I've been refining/adding to my stock of reloading components.
Grabbed a couple yesterday before this news hit- I was kind of expecting them to be out this morning when I checked.![]()

Lot less in stock than a few days ago… I bet gone within a few hours
Because of what??I ordered 3 more cases of 9mm today because ...
Just because? Don't need a reason, well maybe because it was in stockBecause of what??
MK262 and green tips. One for flesh and the other for barriers.For those ordering 'self/home defense' ammo from i.e. TSUSA, what are you getting for .223/5.56, .308, etc.?
I'd think a quality spire point, bonded bullet would be good. Hornady (TAP, Interlock -- American Whitetail), Federal (Fusion), Winchester Super-X Power Point would be good loads for this. Heavy-for-caliber loads. Barrier blind. accurate. hard-hitting. mushrooms instead of fragments.

Let me add the one unicorn case of Wolf 8M3.Hornady TAP is good stuff, in 5.56 and 7.62
Black Hills MK262 is also excellent, if you can find it.
IMI M80 762x51- anyone have any experience with this? junk?
So tried a few different boxes of 9mm in some P80s
AE 115gr - ran flawless
AE 124gr - 1 stovepipe
Blazer 124gr - few double feeds related to one gun
Magtech 115gr - flawless
New Republic 115gr - three light primer strikes. Avoid this ammo.
Geco 124gr - flawless
Norma 115gr - flawless
The Geco and the Norma were the cleanest punchiest of the group. I would buy alot more if found. AE was okay. Blazer kinda sucked. Magtech was surprisingly nice to run and 115gr seems to be the best grain for these builds. I will not be buying New Republic 9mm at all. That one box was the free one with the Ammo+ new membership.
I will run some Scorpio and S&B through them this week when I get a chance.

While this is certainly arms flapping and pants shitting I do think we are entering a new paradigm which will affect all goods and services for a long time. Crazy times we are living in right now. Sticky long term inflation with shortages of key commodities could become the new reality.People stocking up at 58+ cpr. Oof
And the once legendary Magtech version of Mk262. Wish I had a Time Machine and could buy more of that.Let me add the one unicorn case of Wolf 8M3.
That’s a rare one to have.

This is why I will continue buying cases of 9mm. I was getting Blazer for $156 and no Ma tax back in 2019. The current prices are not bad considering inflation.
