Better stock up on the good stuff...

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama’s administration has proposed banning the manufacture and sale of one of the most popular bullets used in AR-15 semi-automatic rifles, a move that has enraged gun rights advocates and caused a run on the ammunition at gun shops across the country.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives this month said it planned to restrict the armor-piercing 5.56 mm “M855 green tip” rifle bullet because of new handguns that use the ammunition and pose a greater threat to the police. Previously the millions of inexpensive green-tip bullets sold each year were only for rifles typically used by target shooters and hunters.
“With few exceptions, manufacturers will be unable to produce such armor piercing ammunition, importers will be unable to import such ammunition, and manufacturers and importers will be prohibited from selling or distributing the ammunition,” the ATF said in its proposed rule.
The proposal would allow people to use up the ammunition they have already purchased. Gun shops and firearms organizations on Thursday said there had been a rush to snap up cases of the ammunition since the National Rifle Association and other gun rights groups sent out urgent alerts to their members.
Those alerts accused Obama of seeking to enact backdoor gun control that he could not achieve in Congress in 2013. Gun rights groups said their members had sent tens of thousands of letters to members of Congress echoing that message and demanding that the rule not be approved.

I ended up finding some good ammo . Thanks for your input everyone. I also bought 1440 rounds of 5.56 62 grain green tips from my local walmart..... they had two cans of 720 rounds so I had to by both. Needless to say I'll be checking other walmarts as much as I hate to admit it.

I checked with 9 different places to buy 38 ammo and none to be found. Even went to Freedom Munitions with no love. Hopefully it is only the good guys that are buying it up.

I’ve got several cases of lead nose 38. Wouldn’t mind getting rid of some to make room in the ammo cabinets if you really need some.
