I for one am not going to participate in panic buying.   Since the last "political" shortage, I learned my lesson to keep a sufficient reserve...just in case.

I buy this for plinking and practice. 925fps, usually new Extreme brass, 18.5 cents a round, swagged copper plated lead. Being round nose it feeds fine, always cycles the slide on all my 9mm's, unlike the 165gr stuff they sell. I just put 1000 in my cart, $15 shipping, (I wait for $10 shipping promotions), but the important thing is right up to today, they do not charge Ne sales tax. Comes in 50 round boxes.
