First Handgun ammo order for store

[Chemist]

I'm placing my first ammunition order next week for the new store. This order will be from Wolf Bullets for his reloaded ammo. Do people want TMJ, FMJ, or Lead ammo? I'm thinking 1/2 the order will be lead RN and the other half 1/2 TMJ. This will be for 9mm, 40 S&W and 45 ACP. The 38 special, 357, and 44 mag will be lead with the exception of the 44 mag...some will be hollow point. What do you think?

P.S. Our new banner spot is going to be the bottom right hand one next to Frontier once Greentips gets our paperwork in the mail. Thanks for all the support and info for Kingston's newest ammunition and reloading supply store.

Sounds like you are on the right track. Given the choice I would take TMJ over FMJ if shooting indoors. Even for a little extra money. I will have to check out Wolf bullets.

I don't use any lead bullets in my guns, even .22s, but I can't speak for everyone.

Really? So what ammo DO you use in your .22?

[IDPACONVERT]

Nice going Ryan! I'll be out to see you in a couple of weeks.

 

[SandRoad]

Aren't the TMJ from Wolfe plated bullets?

 

[rivetc78]

How about some ammo that DOES NOT smoke up the indoor range and make you choke.


...I guess that leaves out Wolf

I'd go with cheapest stuff first, then if it sells start stocking the other kinds.P.S. How much are the .44mags going to be ?

Funny, none of the 1000's of Wolf Reloads I have shot and seen shot while competing in IPSC indoors smoke like you claim.

You shooting lead or Copper plated?

 

[Buffalo Creek Law Dog]

Cowboy shooting requires lead bullets only.

The lead Wolf bullets I have used for my 1911 are pretty dmn smoky. I definitely wouldnt be using them in the indoor range!

Lead bullets are smoky.
Ask any reloader.
