Based on this news, I just went shopping and ordered $549 worth of ammo for three types of rifles. I checked CheaperThanDirt.com, Midway.com, SportsmansGuide.com and SGammo.com. SGAmmo had the best prices on the cheap stuff (Wolf) when bought in 1,000 round lots, including the cost of shipping and $5 for insurance. It wasn't even close - so if any of you are interested in doing the same, be sure to check SGAmmo.
Now I just need to get some guns... 'cuz I lost all of mine several years ago in a terrible boating accident. I hate it when that happens.

McConnell: ‘Assault Weapons’ Ban ‘Front and Center’ in Senate

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) indicated an “assault weapons” ban and other gun controls would be “front and center” when the Senate reconvenes in September.
The Courier-Journal reports that McConnell was a guest on the Louisville, KY, Terry Meiners Show where he said, “What we can’t do is fail to pass something,” adding, “The urgency of this is not lost on any of us.”
NPR reports that McConnell addressed an “assault weapons” ban, saying: “We had that ban for about a 10-year period. There’s a good deal of dispute about whether it actually had an impact or not. It’s certainly one of the front and center issues. I think … probably background checks and red flags will probably lead the discussion. But a lot of other things will come up as well.”
McConnell also stressed background checks would be taken up by the Senate.
On August 7, 2019, Breitbart News reported that President Donald Trump pushed for Congressional action for background checks. The Associated Press quoted Trump saying, “There’s a great appetite, and I mean a very strong appetite, for background checks. And I think we can bring up background checks like we’ve never had before.”
The U.S. has had background checks on retail gun sales since 1998.
