    I'm having a heck of a time finding ammo. I've checked every where in Columbus and every one is on back order. I've checked some places that do online sales and they generally want a dollar a bullet. I can't afford that. So where the heck is all the .380 ammo in Indiana?

    That's an unregistered domain.

    Just shows how hard .380s are to find. ;) Honestly, although the ammo shortage appears to be easing up, .380s are still about the hardest to find out there. I've managed to build up a small stock, but it takes persistence right now.

    I hear ya man. I've only recently been interested in shooting again. Figures I wait to dang long and now can't find ammo. I've got enough for a few home defense's if it ever happens, but not enough for target practice.

    Atterbury Shooting Range has a ton of .380 Blazer Brass for 19.98 per box. Saw it today. 30+ boxes I would guess.

    You may also want to try Acme in Seymour.

    I picked up a few boxes at Gander Mountain here in Evansville for $20. I don't usually buy much at Gander, but I needed the ammo to shoot my LCP.

    Thanks so much for all the reply's and the PM's. I'm checking out Acme tomorrow with a friend as they're the closest to me. I've been asking friends and family and local Columbus gun suppliers and they all tell me they can't find any. Might just be a Columbus thing right now.

    You know, after shooting this Double Tap stuff, I will make the comment that it's quite energetic.

    I'm going to try to get a penetration test going this weekend. They overdrive Gold Dot bullets and, in doing so, get the petals to fold back a bit, streamlining the thing and getting a bit more penetration. Whether this is by accident or by design, I don't know, but it seems to follow.
