    Targetsportsusa.com has Blazer Brass 115gr in stock for $25/box of 50 rounds. Still steep, but it's going down a bit. If you buy a case, you get free shipping.

    I actually bought a 1000 round case of 124 9mm from Freedom Munitions with FREE shipping/Fathersday. Still was 46 cents a round but I haven't shot any 9mm in months.
    This will at least get me out there.

    I reactivated my Prime Ammo membership with TSUSA yesterday and ordered a case. Before tax I paid 46 cents a round with free shipping. I consider the $95 membership an investment as I'll now get 8% off everything purchased and everything shipped free all the time, no matter how few boxes I purchase. Now that they're getting more stock in, it makes sense to reactive my membership IMO.

    I wish I could. I've been loaded down with work for the past couple of weeks and it doesn't look like it will change in the near future.

    Although I intended to let my TSUSA membership slide until things got better, I renewed it with the idea it might help a little to keep them in business. They saved me enough over the last few years that the cost didn't hurt.

    REALLY nice weather today.

    Yes it was. Spent most the day in the garden/flower beds with the turkeys.

    Also, for the CZ gearheads, I ordered this: https://www.rangetechnology.com/products/afm-dfm_disabler/

    The afm system is nothing but trouble in the long run IMHO. It may save you a few bucks in the tank, but starts a myriad of problems in the long term of things. No more going half-limp on the highway. FULL POWER SCOTTY!

    My son had this on the Envoy they owned. Low mileage V-8 but a constant pain in the butt to keep it going. It eventually ate part of the top end of the engine.

    The AFM system or the disabler?

    My issue is primarily oil consumption. After the 4 cyl. are dropped, the system periodically sprays oil into the deactivated cylinder to keep them "wet" causing cookoff. This decreases oil volume/life, and creates excessive carbon build-up. This is what info ive gathered over my reading. IM NO MECHANIC, BY FAR.

    He lives north in Geneva so I never put eyes on it personally.
    They swapped in a 305 from a G body with an R-200 all analog behind it and drove it until it was paid off. Traded it in on a new Dodge Ram truck. He says its still rolling around the area.
