I would just be afraid to use one for a truck gun! <BR/><BR/>Good point about reloading. Years ago, I had an OK setup for loading 44 Special/44magnum and 38/357. two single stage presses, a Lee auto prime and a thrower. Sold it all to an acquaintance about 12 years ago. <BR/><BR/>Might have to stock up on some of that PRVIPartisan ammo from Serbia, and look around for another setup.The Midland Agrarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17214111067042466363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8985010373250930438.post-33459233374517365172009-03-19T02:17:00.000-04:002009-03-19T02:17:00.000-04:00Mosin-Nagant rifles are great.A bunch of the guys ...Mosin-Nagant rifles are great.<BR/><BR/>A bunch of the guys at work and I have this M-N love affair though, I sold my Russian ones to buy a Finnish M-39 and boy was it worth it.<BR/><BR/>Don't count on Wal Mart for any ammo, all of them around me are selling what they have on hand and not restocking or continue to carry ammo.<BR/><BR/>Best bet - reload. Re-loadable brass is coming from Serbia and a few other sources & bullet diameter is in the .308-.311 range. A simple single stage press and accessories and your good to go.Kevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11212029045367448902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8985010373250930438.post-70848442781732231762009-03-03T16:49:00.000-05:002009-03-03T16:49:00.000-05:00Thank you both for thr kind words.

However, I can legally buy ammunition via phone orders to dealers in other states and have it shipped to my home. You may be able to as well, dependent upon your state and local laws. try googling "ammoman" or "aim surplus"<BR/><BR/>Prices on guns and ammo have been rising locally here too. Barack Obama is the best gun salesman I have seen in a long time. Our guns shows are like zoos too. One of my favorite local gun shops put up a sign thanking all of their customers for their best year ever.The Midland Agrarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17214111067042466363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8985010373250930438.post-41767504392149220882009-03-03T13:27:00.000-05:002009-03-03T13:27:00.000-05:00Where I live, the main sporting goods stores have ...Where I live, the main sporting goods stores have been running out of ammo. Be glad that you can at least find ammo from an international source.<BR/><BR/>The gun shows down here have been so busy since the new administration that it really is hard to get a good deal at one. They're charging a premium.<BR/><BR/>I do enjoy your gun reviews.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8985010373250930438.post-47728319172005770782009-03-01T20:35:00.000-05:002009-03-01T20:35:00.000-05:00Thanks for this article - I'll share it with my hu...Thanks for this article - I'll share it with my husband.Kairahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10765357430906520319noreply@blogger.com
