Cool!! I'll see you guys there in that case! I've been waiting to be home for one for a good 6 months now to restock some ammo. I'll have a dolly with me to haul it all out.

'Twas a good show too
Ted, I never did see that ammo guy from Texas so I only ended up buying 700 rds of 9mm and no 5.56,
h and a level II kydex holster for the new Longslide Glock (17L) I bought yesterday :)

Nice, actually, I realized that he wasn't from Texas after all. It's Georgia Arms who I've bought my stuff from in the past. Years ago there was a guy out of Houston who reloaded and sold at the gun shows, but Georgia Arms bought him out. Some of the stuff is factory reloads, and some is new ammo. I didn't know until today that Georgia Arms is the fifth biggest manufacture of ammunition in the US (behind rem, win, fed, cci). We walked out today with over 3500 rounds between a buddy and myself in .223, .45, .44mag, and .40. Needless to say, I was glad to have brought the dolly!!

You were right though.....223 has gone up 33% in cost!! What cost me $105 a year ago is now $155 for 500 rounds!
