    Online is what I've found to be the best place for ammo.

    This is where I get most of my ammo:

    I usually get Brown Bear. It's a little higher quality than wolf.


    Sort of a thread hijack, but it might be useful to you anyway... does anyone know if there is any truth to the theory that you shouldn't shoot brass after steel without cleaning? The thought is the steel doesn't seal well in the chamber and the chamber gets gunked up with carbon. Then the brass doesn't chamber right and expands more than the steel, causing whatever damage it would cause.

    Edit: a little late on the steel question I guess. BTW, I've heard that they don't use the lacquer anymore. Or at least it's a different kind and doesn't melt off.
