I bought a .223 rifle. I only have 200 rounds and don't feel comfortable shooting them. I won't pay ridiculous prices for ammo. If this scare ever ends I will definitely shoot it. I have tried to get ammo at gander mountain but the same people seem to camp there for two hours in advance. There were also people in the parking lot trying to sell what they just bought for twice the price. Makes me sick. I'm aware this is a free market, before you say.
You should clean the gun and shoot enough to sight the rifle in and check the function. I was in a similar situation with my current AR but no way I wasn't going to sight the gun in and get it ready. As far as the 10/22 and PF9 I mentioned earlier, I just haven't taken the time to work with them yet. Mainly because the rifle is for my son as he grows into it and the pistol is just something I ran across.
