Well i got off cheap and she is happy now.
She needed a new TV due to the size of the entertainment center she ordered so i got her one of them Vizio 60 inch smart TV's so she can watch her internet shows on.

Now i am back to shopping for gun related stuff and cigars.

No new guns.

All i have been doing is working on my ammo supply and storage.
I am shooting 14 different calibers for 21 guns now so storage became a problem finding anything so i Picked up some 50 cal cans and filled 11 so far.

The only caliber i am low on now is 300AAC so i stooped shooting it till i do some reloading, its just to hot to spend time in the shed reloading right now.

I did get to fire my browning sweet sixteen, that old gun is fun to shoot.

I'm in the same boat. No new guns and trying to stock up on ammo. For some reason it's been hard to come by up here. I suspect between the US gov't, the US armed forced, US police and of course, citizens stocking up, there's very little making it's way up here. My local gun shop finally got a bunch of my hunting rifle ammo so I bought several hundred rounds and I managed to find several thousand .22 rounds as well.

I went out shooting last weekend because I'd adjusted the Timney trigger on my Remington 700 from 2.5 lb's to 3.5 - 4 lb's. It was a little too light for hunting. It definitely feels more the way I want it to now and I'm still shooting 1" groups at 100 yards and 1 to 1.5" groups at 200 so I'm happy with the setting.

I actually bought a (yep, one..........LOL) .50 cal ammo can from the local surplus store some years back. I was able to put a lock on it and that's what I take to the range and out hunting. For storage at home, I bought the following Plano storage "trunk"

It holds quite a bit, has wheels if you need to move it and has 3 locks on it and fits nicely in the closet of my home office. You could stack them too if need be and I believe they are water tight.

CptnBlues63 i will have to look in to that storage box, i think i would need 2 and stack them in the closet is not a bad idea.

That seems like it would be a pain in the ass for ammo storage if you start stacking them. Moving tuperware containers of leftovers around the fridge is one thing. Moving a tough box full of ammo around is completely different.

Yeah, especially if they're full. Heck, even half full and I doubt one person could lift it.

Mine's about 1/4 full and it's got enough weight to it that I wouldn't want to lift it alone (I have some assorted gun parts, scopes and tools in there also).

If you had one full one on the bottom and the one on top only full enough that you could still lift it easily you'd be alright though.
