    I got 2 boxes myself Friday from Pensacola academy. It was 70 cpr with tax and I started to put it back but my wife encouraged me to get it so I did. Godbless that woman lol. There was 4 200 round boxes and she wanted to get them all but we left a couple for the next guy. I've heard green tips aren't all they are cracked up to be but I couldn't say I've never shot at people...thank the lord

    I was encouraged a week or so ago when they there were reports about ammo staying on Academy shelves longer than usual. But I just drove by on my way to work and saw the line is quite long and was getting longer. I assume it may be due, at least in part, to Biden‘s new gun control push. Ugh....here we go.

    Well that's good to know. At least we didn't make a poor investment. Does poi change wildly going from 55 grain to 62? @ what yardage would it become noticeable in your opinion or experience?

    At around 1045am, academy in Pensacola had a few 100 round shotgun boxes. Also had a few turkey loads. Other than that, the ammo shelves were empty.
