I have not had any reason to price this ammo before, but since I am in the process of building/getting my first AR I am curious if that's a good brand/deal for ammo?

I have some and it's decent stuff, but it is probably steel. You can't shoot it at many ranges.

If you shop around you can get 1000 rounds of factory new brass FMJ (not the wolf stuff) delivered for $350.

Why wouldn't a .22LR be someone's standard rd rifle and pistol? If I could have only one caliber it would be .22LR. Great round for small game and pests. Even larger animals can be taken with the proper shot placement.
I have probably shot more .22LR rounds than all other calibers combined. It's just a useful round that is also fun to shoot.

You guys didn't actually expect to get ammo for half a cent per round? To order at that price guessing it was a typo and hoping you could shame the company into honoring the typo price is somewhat dishonest, don't you think?
Now, if you called to verify the price and they said it was a typo but would honor it anyway, that's different. I'm looking to pay a fair price for merchandise. Someone trying to take advantage of someone's mistake bothers me about as much as someone over inflating prices.

I was afraid to ask how much

Chicken! (Would that be a 55 gal drum?)

More of a pony drum. 1/4 the size of a regular 55 gal drum. They were ruffle $6700 at the Academy at 1604 & I35 a few weeks ago. My co-worker asked they kid at the counter if they sell many of them, kid said 3 that he knows of. 1 to a LE agency the other two were sold to another gentleman at two separate time. So some where, there is a guy with 25,000 rounds of 5.56.

And a wallet less $14k.

During the conversation he started bragging about how he knows all the local WalMart delivery days and gets to the stores very early to wait. He buys it to sell to a couple of dealers who make all the gun shows. From the amount he sells and from what he offered to sell me he's very successful. He even said he and his friends were the reason no one can find ammo. He sells to local LEO's also.

I hope you told him he is a sorry excuse for the use of Epidermis.

Limit one per order plus $18 shipping makes it about $45 a box. I'll pass.

Scored 3 boxes of 9mm at the Walmart in Waxahachie. From the conversations I heard, people come every evening at 7:30 and stand in line to see if any ammo came in. I was driving by and stopped in. 12 people in line.

Superdavetx wrote:Wow... I'm glad you guys didn't get offended!

Good question though... How much ammo is too much?

and when one buys a case, how many boxes are in a case???

How much do you guys have? I had two boxes.. They are gone now. I need more... figured I might buy 500 rounds.

Would that be hoarding???

500 rounds of HST might be hoarding. 500 rounds of range ammo is a couple weekends of fun.

Pardon me, I resemble that remark.

How much ammo does one need to have before one is considered a hoarder?

All I saw for 9mm was some Federal tactical ammo. $350 for 500. :(

Target ammo has been selling out in less than 15 min after it is posted. I watched 80,000 rds go in just a few mins last week.
