How has the ammo/component shortage affected your Shooting

[Andy]

I don't go to WalMart, but many guys I know get ammo every single week there. The Federal 100 packs for $29 I think. Granted they're not for vintage guns but for practice who cares.

So do you practice with a non vintage gun?

Reggie I shoot anything I can whenever I can. Usually Gun Club Lite or AA Lite in my Vulcan barrels, but anything at all up to Howitzer loads in my Guerinis/Beretta/Benelli/Browning clays guns. Most of my stuff I shoot now if I'm going to use it in a Parker is a 2 3/4" I load with pressures south of 8,000PSI. Harold Pickens and Mike Koneski have been repeatedly telling me not to worry about 2 3/4" loads in these barrels with plastic shells as long as they're not crazy stuff. The one Damascus I have only gets RST until my MEC press gets here.

If those shells are 1 oz and 1200 FPS they are fine for vintage guns.

Not sure what they are Mike. Some of these ding dongs then turn around and sell them for $50 on GB and there are those who pay it. You eat what you kill.
