Since the cost of ammunition is bound to be going up in 2024 (along with possible shortages), I decided to order some .30-30 Winchester and 12 gauge shot shells while the prices are still reasonable through Cabela's (their shipping cost is only $5.00) and they're having year-end sales. I'll be ready for some target practice when it gets warmer this coming spring and summer.
I decided to try out a different brand of 12 gauge shot shells. Previously, I was using Remington target load shells. I have no problem with them, but decided to see if Federal's Top Gun Target Load performs better.
As for the .30-30 Winchester, I decided on Hornady American Whitetail .30-30 Winchester 150 Grain. I could have bought 170 grain, but decided on making it easier on the Winchester Model 1894. After all, it is only for target practice. Their under-$26.00 price/box is much better than the $70.00 price/box I saw last week in a Lake Havasu gun store.
