Have you purchased anything gun related in the last three days?

Ordered a few thousand large rifle primers from Graf & Sons along with a large and small primer pocket uniformers.
 
While waiting for prescriptions at Wally World bought Winchester WB 200 rd pack 9mm and 100 rd pack .38 spl 130 gr. The shelves are a little short on stock ,usually don't buy there anyway .
 
Haven't bought any gun related stuff in over a year. Need to buy a scope for a rimfire rifle, but it is not a major concern as I have quite a few others to shoot if I want to. Plenty of ammo.
 
Just ordered 1000 rounds of Geco 9mm 124 gr FMJ from Target Sport USA for $165.44, shipped to my door.

I took the plunge today and signed up for Target Sports Prime with a order of 1,000 rounds of Federal M-193. What scares me the most is the pressure to start ordering ammunition monthly now to make sure I get my $95.00 worth in free shipping.

That is my problem with memberships. I would have a Costco membership if they were lower priced. The only store is a fair drive (10-12 miles), but I would like to shop there periodically.

I have been on-line shopping this week looking for the best deal on Federal 223 / 5.56 ammunition. Companies that have the lowest prices per round also have the highest shipping costs. One outfit charges over $40.00 for only a 1,000 round order! So after doing the math Target Sports will work out the best especially since I will not have to make large bulk orders to save on shipping charges.

I will still be a customer of SG Ammo. It will be a matter of price and availability.
 
Again, more .22 rimfire on a suggestion of my wife's old classmate.
CCI Mini-Mags for our Rugers, Mark III & IV.
Did I say "old classmate"?
Oh yeah, we are getting old too.:)

Our closest Costco is 30 miles away. We make the trip about every 10 days, The closest HEB, it's a Texas thing, is 30 miles the other direction. We go there about every 7 days, often we bypass that HEB to go to the Super HEB, another 15 miles down the road.

Perspective is everything. When we lived in Portland the closest Costco was 7 miles away. It took about half the time it takes us now.

I'm much rather have to drive to Costco than live in the Metromess.

Perspective is everything. I used to live in rural KY where I would drive to Kroger just to visit a modern grocery store and it was an hour's drive. I didn't think anything of it but it was not something I would do every day. Trip to a real mall was a couple hours. I suspect Costco is about 15 miles and would take me about 20-25 minutes to get there with normal traffic. (I was curious and did a google search on distance.) So, a little further than I thought. This is basically my best option if I dump Sam's Club which is closer due to their new policies.
