I found 50 rounds of Federal Tactical HST hollow point, $50 for 50 rounds. It was in the next state over, but I was getting some gun training, so got a box. Wish I had gotten 2 now.

The HSTs are my go to SD round in 9mm. Luckily I bought a case a couple years ago when ammo prices bottomed out and still have some left over. Think it came out to 40c/round back then. But $1/round for quality SD rounds is a great buy these days!

I know, I was almost to the point of throwing my Glock mags at the target! Glad I was able to get enough to load a few more mags.

I have had a real hard time finding ammo, especially 380 Hollow Point, Self defense or fmj. Also .40 and 45. I am retired LEO who keeps my LEOSA and USCCA up to date but I am barely able to find ammo to qualify for my LEOSA. Even many LE departments have problems keeping enough Range ammo. Need a minimum of 50 rounds each time. I was able to find ample ammo for my rifles late last year so I am okay there. Most of the places around where I live limit to one or two boxes, mix or match, of handgun ammo and I have not seen a 50 round box in ages. Is anyone else having this problem?

@David885 , welcome to the Community.
Unfortunately local stores are mostly out of ammo. My Range has ammo reserved for classes, so I cannot complain. 
However when I need more, I go online. This is the unlimited source of ammo. The prices are also not too bad, if I do patient search.

I know there are plenty of places online to pick up range rounds in .40 and .45, but they seem to be pretty expensive. I can’t say for .380, as I don’t own one and don’t look for it. I usually check the manufacturer websites that sell from their sites like CCI and Federal. For example:
I just sort by top sellers, then availability (for whatever reason if you set initially to availability, it doesn’t always put available to the top).
Good luck.

The heavy hitters. Better move fast. Some other premium defensive stuff there too.

Those look like a really good round out of 4” and longer barrels. Would pick some up myself if I didn’t have a good supply of other options.

It’s out there. Takes more patience & due diligence now in matching caliber with price point but assure you it’s possible.
A matter of trivia.
I found some Gold Dot .38 Special 153 Grain hollow points at my local shop yesterday, first time in 3-4 months BUT I couldn’t bring myself to paying $65.00 a box.

Was that for a box of 20 or 50?

First they were 135 grain not 153, my bad.
It was a box of 50 .38 Spcl +P.

Assumed that was what you meant on the weight. $1.30ish/round for Gold Dots is about the best you are going to do these days. I do miss the days of 50 cents/ round for good self defense ammo. Glad I stocked up back then!

Proving another 9mm to run Hornady CD. This is gonna cost me. I’ll just tell the kids they will like community college…
