I don't reload, so I have just been building up stocks of ammo in common calibers to fit my favored weapons.
I've pretty much got 9mm, .38 special, .357 Mag, .45 ACP, and 7.62 x 39 covered.
I still need to get a good 12 gauge pump, but after seeing the scarcity of 00 buck and slugs, I decided to hold off.
I’m satisfied with what I have but I do wish I had some #7 for my .40 and 10mm reloads, I can substitute either Unique or Bluedot.
Years ago I bought something like 5 thousand .223 used brass that I spent a week sorting and cleaning plus a full can of loaded .223 that looked like misfires with bent spirepoints, I used a pencil sharpener to redo the point and cleaned them up a bit, they are only for plinking or maybe to be pulled.
