    Federal has come out with a 30 caliber round for handguns--considering the ammo shortage, kinda dumb IMHO to dilute the already stressed supply chain

    The supply shortage won't go on forever and then you'll wish you'd bought the new handgun.

    This shortage is all conjured up by Vista and Olin to raise an already high price for trap loads.

    Funny there's a warehouse full of Win. Fed. and Rem. in Tucson. Was for the Autumn Grand and most likely will be for the Spring
