It's brass

Only calibers I see are .380, .45 and .40 no 9mm.

Shoot...

Yeah, I just tried to purchase 3 buckets online. It let me get through the process up to where I put in my payment. Then it told me it was out of stock. Lame...it's a darn good deal. Free shipping, no tax...aargh!

Yes brass it is there UMC brand in a bucket. 9mm is on the list that is what the pricing was based on. Wife is supposed to pick some up for me while she is out today. Will update when she returns.

Here is link to 9mm

69.99 sale price and the 30 rebate on top of that

The hard copy ad that I'm looking at:
9mm (350 rounds)
45ACP (200 rounds)
both $39.99 (after $30 MIR)
11.4¢ per round

.380 (300 rounds)
40 S & W (300 rounds)
both $59.99 (after $30 MIR)
19.9¢ per round

The ad layout is kind of funky, but I suppose that was on purpose since there were different round counts and different prices depending on caliber.
And they show a picture of the 9mm range bucket and in the description for the 9mm also state "Range Bucket", however for all the other calibers they don't state "Range Bucket" and I haven't looked at their website to find out if the other calibers are packed in a bucket or not.

Features and Benefits

115-grain weight
350 rounds
Metal casings for reliable feed and function
Designed for target shooting
9mm caliber

But the Q&A says brass casings and a buyer picture shows brass... I'd hate to spend the $$ and they not be brass casings..

But a mute point I guess as they just ran out....

Grapevine has 15 left , don’t try to buy more than 3

13 cents after tax

Dicks Sporting Goods will price match, so I'm saved. They have a ton in stock here. If you can't find it @ Academy, try Dicks.

For those that do get in on this deal, I called Remington and they said a color picture of the UPC would suffice for proof of purchase, so you don't have to destroy the bucket the ammo comes in.

My 3 buckets have a sticker for the UPC code so I presume I can peel that off and use it

I bought 2 buckets of .45 acp from the League City Academy Sports today. They had ZERO buckets out for people to see. They were all in the back room. I had to ask for them. The gun clerk said they were for the Black Friday sale. I showed him the current weekly ad with them in it and asked for 2 buckets. He went and got them, and printed out my rebate form. Not a bad deal for range ammo!

Just got home with mine all as advertised.

I just got back from Dicks, and everything worked out flawlessly. I had to show them the Academy page on my phone (showing $69.99) and they changed the price for all three buckets.

And Cheapsk8 is right. They must have added the peel-off UPC for this rebate. All my other buckets didn't have it, so I just assumed this was going to be the same.

Rebate going in the mail tomorrow! Thanks for posting this Cheapsk8!!

The wife just picked up 3 buckets of 9mm. The cheapest on Ammoseek.com is 13.3 cents/round + $18 shipping. Once-fired brass

Too good of a deal to pass up. $38 savings on 1050 rounds and new brass.

Thanks for the heads-up.

ETA 11-22-17: Rebate in the mail. Let's see how long it takes to get it back.
1-2-18: Status shows it is processing.
