Anyone else scrounging through their range bags collecting valuable JHP ammo from left-over sessions?

I just realized how valuable they are can came up with 75 rounds I had 'forgotten' about.

Sad times. At least I'm not forced to pick up cigarette butts (yet) but when those are banned................

I clean out my range bag after every session, usually because of all the brass I scrounged that was laying around the range, and I always forget to bring a zip-lock to put it in!

I did just finish an inventory of all of my ammo and concentrated on the pistol stuff.  For the next couple range trips I'll be shooting a mix of all the half full boxes of 10 different kinds of 9mm and 45 ACP that I came across.

I'm sitting pretty good but I wish I had bought more quality JHP when it was cheap and available.  Like most of us, I'm sure!

How much JHP have you stocked up on. I am embarassed to say but I am supporting three calibers and it has been a stretch.

I wish I had bought ten years ago.

I've got around 550 JHP in 45, 300 of which is Winchester Ranger RA45T.  I only have one 45 and it's my bedside gun in a Gunvault.

I have several 9mm pistols and that's what I carry, and I like to slowly rotate through my carry ammo, so I wish I had got a lot more of that.  I've got some misc JHP along with 500 Winchester Ranger RA9T and 500 Federal P9HST2.  I wish I had way more HST since that's what I usually carry.

I can't find HST's anywhere for a reasonable price.

It sounds like you are covered at least for JHP. It is so precious now. I am going to be really careful when I do decide to use a few rounds. I hope the prices drop soon.

Try finding it for the .357sig.....  I can't find any in town and have been slowly adding to the pile when people want to let some go......
