$1.30 a round for 223, yeh, no thanks. Thank god I’ve always reloaded 223.

Ahh sorry got all excited..... carry on

Makes me happy to have the components to roll my own for 1/3 the price.

That is great ammo, but I was paying like .40 some cents a round for it back in the day.

Thanks for the heads up. I’ve been wanting to try a head to head comparison with some Black Hills MK 262, so I ordered some up.

Now if the damn weather would warm up, I’ll head to the range. Hard to get a good group when you’re shivering!

When I first bought my LWRC M6A1 back in 2009, I was buying brown box 20 packs of Federal Lake City XM193F for $3.97 a box... Damn I miss those days...

I'm not paying over $1 per round for 5.56. That is fucking ridiculous

For MilSurp, anything more than $0.50/round is outrageous. In this climate, I'd consider $0.50, but nothing more. And under normal circumstances, I wouldn't even pay more than $0.40/round for Lake City, even as much as I love the LC brass for reloading 5.56 and converting to .300 BLK. Most of the time I buy cheap steel-cased Tula or Wolf FMJ or JHP for $0.20/round for most of my plinking and bulk range shooting. I don't even have to worry about picking up the brass or using my brass catchers. But I'm damn-sure not paying $0.80 a round for steel-cased crap!!!

That's right at the threshold of tolerable pricing. I hope this means things are stabilizing and prices will be on the drop back to normal...

A friend picked up 400 rounds of Winchester 9mm (100 for $34.99) at Academy Sports today so it’s out there too, not everyone is raping the customer.
