I’m a big fan of .38 Super, during the first ammo frenzy I scoured Albuquerque and found a shop that was sitting on 4000 rounds of it. Offered them $15 a box for the lot. I’m set. Did the same with 16 gauge buckshot and slugs. Those had been around so long most were $2 per box of 5. Stocked up on .300 Savage too. Yeah, I’m weird.

That's an excellent score on the 38 Super. I really like my S&W 460 and 500, but the ammo is very expensive. My local FFL had automated his 4473 records, then discovered the IT guy (an employee) was stealing from him. He fired the guy and days later got a notice from ATF that they would be coming by to inspect his books. Cutting to the chase, I booted his Linux box with a system restore CDROM, dug around and located a mySQL database hosting his records and wrote a short SQL export to CSV to rescue his data. Quid pro quo was some nice ammo for the 460 & 500 that wasn't selling well due to the high cost. I scored some great ammo and he successfully weathered the ATF inspection/audit.
