Ed,
The way I see it, one 230 grain 45 is equal to two 115 grain 9mm. So, from that perspective, I'm covered 2 for 1.

Welcome, Mark
Well if not "a" 45 ACP, then perhaps two or more {:>)-
I would think one of those big wild Texas boars might be
the toughest of the three to stop.

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?
