And, while solving the problems of the world, ol' Ron mentions that he saw 32ACP down at Walmart yesterday.
So, like I don't really need any since I bought about $300 worth a couple months ago but I said I would go down and check it out.
Which I did and they had three boxes on the shelf. I rounded up an employee and as he was ringing them up I also put two 100 round boxes of Federal #8 birdshot on the counter.
He said they have a policy of three boxes per day per customer and wouldn't sell me the shot shells. I opened one up and showed him there were actually FOUR boxes of shot shells in each carton and he said it was still one box and so much for logic and my ability to horde ammo prior to the dove opener.
Shit, they had 3 or 4 boxes of 300WM behind the glass which I don't need since my gun has never seen a factory round, BUT what got me was the price! They were $52.something per box, Winchester black box.
This shit is getting out of hand.

LB, unless you get into several crooked card games and have to shoot your way to the door, you are probably "set" for a long time in 32 ACP ammo. Even tho I may have mentioned it in the past, I can't help myself without saying again, try to find a couple of box's of Sellier&Bellot FMJ 32 ACP. Preferably the "older" style loaded in brass cases, that for some odd reason attract a magnet. They are loaded hot and will penetrate 1/4" metal @ 25 yds. The same style bullet is all I carry in my 380's, piss on expansion.
