Yea I was reading about the "low number". I also know the previous owner has had it out to the range with in the last year. He supplied me with 19rnds of ammo that he had left over. However I'm kind of leary about firing off these rounds as he said he or his father bought them years ago at Billy Bucks in NY., The price tag reads $4.69 and it's smokeless, according to Ammo Attic in Melbourne, Fl they should still be good. But I've heard and read other wise.
