Maybe CCI Mini Mags, ya know since they are "magnum".

Damnation. If the SHTF, and one doesn't have SHTF ammo is he or she SOL? WTF? Maybe someone could just turn off the fan....

I do like your marketing idea though, when the zombie craze dies off they could try that next! THE CHAIR IS AGAINST THE WALL. The Tikka T3 in .308 Winchester is the Glock 19 of the rifle world.

I'll save my EOTWAWKI comments for the main Campfire/political discussion............
