I have a wide variety of ammo, mostly because I am not picky. My biggest requirement is that it function well with the firearms that I am going to be using it in.

The only ammo I standardize is rifle ammo. In 5.56mm, I am buying 62 grain green tips. I have optimized my rifles for that. In 7.62 mm, I am shooting 149 grain, but I also have some 168gr BTHP as well.

For handgun, there is a wide variety. Still, here are the main cartridges that I have in stock, and this is largely what I am carrying:

Note that when more than one bullet is listed in a given caliber, the heavier one is the one that I use in firearms with longer barrels. The lighter bullet is for shorter firearms. For example, that 135gr 9mm bullet makes best use of the longer barrel from a PDC like my Scorpion EVO and its 8 inch barrel. You can tell that I am a fan of the 125grain loading. I also stock subsonic 9mm for using with a suppressor.

However, I also have odds and ends of ammo that I have tested and you will see some odd stuff like 184 rounds of this, or 20 rounds of that. (The 20 rounds is rat shot for the .38Spl)

*For reference, I included the 500 rounds of 10mm that I bought to test. Once I get sights, magazines, and I am sure that this ammo functions well with this handgun, this one will be ready for use.

My wife likes to use the 380 for handguns, but her home defense gun is that EVO, and I don’t blame her. It’s easy to use, recoil is great, and with the 30 round magazines, it gives you a decided advantage against an assailant.

My EDC is either the 38 snubbie, or my Shield Plus in 9mm. My house handgun is a full sized M&P45, and its loaded with the 230gr +p’s.

I may add that 10mm to the mix at some point. The numbers are impressive. I am looking at a company called Underwood that appears to be loading defense ammo to its full potential. The S&W10 is nice because it is the same sized as the 45, and uses the same holsters.

Here is Garand Thumb reviewing the Underwood loadings for the 10mm. I like this video, because it is more entertaining than a dry lecture on the benefits of a cartridge, even if he does take some liberties with strict range safety.

I have never bought or fired Underwood’s ammo before and I know nothing about them, other than their website and the above video. I have to admit that 15 rounds of 180 grains moving at 1300 feet per second is interesting.

Silicon Graybeard lost his pet cat- it died in his arms while they were both asleep. It causes me to tear up, thinking about it. I hate losing a pet, and thinking about the day when either my pets or I will lose each other makes me want to go hug them. I believe that the Oatmeal summed it up best with this cartoon.

“He is my best friend, and I am his, but he will go to his grave having never known my name.”

Hug your pets. There is no love as pure as the one between a pet and his human.

A tranny by the name of Graham Bain decided to go nuts and began chasing and ramming people in their cars. One man’s car was disabled by the runaway nutjob after it was rammed several times with his daughters inside. The victim produced a gun and told the tranny to stop. The dude who looks like a lady put his car back into gear in order to ram our armed citizen. The armed citizen shot the drive tranny in the abdomen, who rammed the victim’s car anyhow.

Crazed Faggot

I just wanted to see how many times I could fit the word ‘tranny’ into a single paragraph. The story is found here. Note that the story purposely leaves out the fact that his a delusional crazy man.

All I am saying is that a woman who is armed with a firearm that enters my property and kicks my dog is presenting an imminent threat to my safety. You come onto my property with a belligerent attitude and shouting about how you are armed with a handgun, nothing further needs to be said.

India’s Chandrayaan-2 orbiter has captured detailed images of the Apollo 11 and Apollo 12 moon landing sites.

Florida requires counties to ban “camping” in areas that are not specifically designated for camping. Volusia has become the latest county to do so. The city of Orlando has arrested 25 people for this so far, which tells me that the law is going largely unenforced. I can drive through downtown Orlando and find 25 people violating this law in less than an hour.

The left hates it, complaining about how cruel it is:

While the ordinance cites the importance of protecting the “health, safety, welfare, quality of life, and aesthetics” of communities, per the state law, it makes no mention of any obligation to assist individuals or connect them to resources before applying enforcement measures.

Note that what the bleeding hearts fail to mention is that, while there is nothing in the law requiring that local governments assist these bums, there is also nothing in the law that prohibits helping them, either. It’s almost as if the left won’t do anything unless the law tells them to.

Still, I don’t care. I have a lot of experience dealing with the “unhoused” people that the left loves so much. They aren’t average people who fell on hard times. Overwhelmingly, these people have two problems:

• Mental health issues
• Drug addiction

We got rid of the mental hospitals, so now they live on the street. Bring back mental institutions and the problem is largely solved.

You will note that the homeless population DOESN’T include illegal immigrants. They are staying downtown at the Ritz.

You get hired for a job. While at work, you unfurl a flag with a political message. Sure, you are fired. You will likely be banned from your employer’s property. Did you commit a crime, though?

I dont think so.

Of course, this isn’t REALLY where the money goes. This is a grift, so that people can steal money from the treasury.

I was asked why I hadn’t posted any stories on the DC plane crash. I replied that there weren’t yet enough facts, but I bowed to pressure from my readers and went ahead and posted a couple of stories.

It turns out that there are still more stories coming out about the pilot who was the apparent cause of the crash. Let me post a collage picture that shows you what I mean.

What do you know- a DEI hire because she hit the checkboxes for the Biden Administration- a lesbian LGTBQ activist.

This statement from her family reinforces that position:

Her sexuality wasn’t a factor in the crash, but her lack of experience was, and she was in the Whitehouse because of that sexuality. Once an Army officer is favored by the President, they tend to be promoted to and given opportunities that they are otherwise unqualified for. That certainly WAS a factor in the crash.

Sure enough, there are people who read this blog that are jumping to defend her because they don’t like to see me call out the military. One commenter said “It is enough time to know what you are doing, and he was an evaluator, which means his command thought he was experienced.”

So the commander of the helicopter squadron that has been responsible for transporting Democrat bigwigs all over the DC area would never bow to DEI pressure from the Whitehouse, I am sure. After all, we know that President Poopy Pants was in full command of his faculties, and there was absolutely no shenanigans from the lefties who were really running the show.
