Don't get me wrong, I did the same thing with the AR. I was interested in one kind of, but never got the fire for it and actually bought one until ammo was ridiculous. I paid $319 for 475 rounds of .62 gr. green tip from Lake City.
Nice! I lucked out and scored several hundred rounds of GoldDots about a week before my AR arrived at my LGS. I’m so glad I didn’t wait until the AR arrived because everything was all gone bye bye by then.
