Ed, 

Thanks for the link.  I went there but they didn't have any 9mm or 22 LR, but I did purchase 500 rounds of 230 grain 45 ACP.  Perfect for my new Sig P220 Elite.  I would be very comfortable flying over wilderness country with this by my side.  But here in Texas, the biggest animal I would have to worry about might be a Western Diamondback, a wild boar or mountain lion.  A 45 ACP ought to be able to handle any of these.

Thanks,
Mark

I just got a new sig Sauer P226 DAK (40 cal) and found a 500 rnd case of ammo at this place for a "reasonable" price:

Sorry Brother, the department supplies my rounds. I must qualify on Valentines Day....hmmmm. Also, I carry a Glock 22, 40 cal. Yes. I am aware of the shortage 

It's overcast here too and is gonna be at least the next two days, my days off from rolling and patrolling. Sigh. So tomorrow I will try to repair my fence so my pup doesn't try to knock-up every bitch in heat in SE Houston. I can do that in the rain.  :-)  Yes, I need to fix him....poor pup....

Chris, 

Well, it is low IFR here in Austin-Lockhart today, so the wife and I went to the shooting range.  We would have stayed longer, but in case you haven't heard, there's a severe shortage of ammo virtually everywhere.  So, tell me Chris, what's the inside skinny on where to buy 9mm?

This is sometime more an issue than it would seem at a towered field with heavy military/NASA traffic under Class B.
