Best price yet

layoutshooter · Apr 30, 2014

I like to look around at prices for ammo, just to see where they are trending. This is the best price I have seen for 5.56X45MM 62GR ammo in two years.

$350.00 per 1000. Looks like Lake City bulk.

5.56 M-855 62 gr. AP New

I have my 9mm build up to a comfortable level finnally..
Are you seeing any 22Lr and where, other then on-line. Thats the next thing I'm going to work on. These folks hording the ammo when it hits the shelves are killing us by trying to turn a outrageous profit on it. (Wanna be dealers)

Kinda hard to turn a profit, buying retail to sell at above retail, with ammo prices dropping right now. I have not looked for any 22LR. I have plenty. I need to start using it up.

Two boxes, looked like 200 per box, maybe 100. Did not check the price. Was grand opening of the store.

I DID find a 5 round magazine for my AR. Now I have the two I wanted. My new trigger is in as well.

MI law requires them for hunting. I have 10 30RD and 4 10RD. Have never even loaded a 30. Use the 10's and 5's on the range.

Paul Mushing, from DU, is going to load my target and varmint loads for me. I just bought 300 reconditioned shells for that. Likely use Hornady V-Max for varmints and Lupua, either 77gr or 69gr, for target.
