Federal Gold Medal Match 168/308 at Palmetto

[snipe10]

Just a heads up, I just ordered a bunch of FGMM 168 grain 308 ammo from Palmetto State Armory for $21.99 a box!

I ordered up 50 boxes and would have bought more if I could've.

This is pre-hysteria pricing and hasn't been available anywhere, thought some of you might like to know.

Get it while you can!

Well, that didn't last long. "Out of stock"

Well sorry, it was there and they took my order and sent me a confirmation email.

I've been checking every day, word has it Midsouth Shooters Supply is supposed to get some this week so if you really want (need) some, I'd check it every day, probably a few times a day. Natchez and Lucky Gunner both had it two days ago but wanted $39 a box!

I paid $30 and $35 a box in the past few weeks buying it whenever I could, hats off to Palmetto for not gouging like some of the others.

I was there today, in Columbia. They actually had M4 AR15's out the door for $860.

Perhaps the world is returning to normal.

They've had them in good amounts for near a month now. Lowers for longer than that. Prices are still jacked pretty high.

I was able to score some Hodgdon 4350 at another local shop.

Here's a great link to AMMO ......saves time sometimes, but you gotta be quick.
FGMM 308 vanishes fast

No apology required. That's how it goes. I appreciate that you tried to let us know and it seems that some got there in time. I'm just trying to gather enough so that I can keep shooting enough to get better and take the LR course here locally.

And then I'm somewhat hindered by a limited budget for my playtime, so I usually can only spring for about 200 rounds at a time. Ah, but you don't need to hear my moaning...

Thanks for the heads up!

Re: Federal Gold Medal Match 168/308 at Palmetto

Re: Federal Gold Medal Match 168/308 at Palmetto

If I am going to buy match ammo in order to keep brass for reloading, is FGMM a decent option?

Federal brass no good?

Re: Federal Gold Medal Match 168/308 at Palmetto

FGMM sucks...don't buy any of it. BTW, if you find some, PM me where you can find it...all I shoot is crap ammo.

I love how the level of sarcasm on any forum related to firearms is off the charts.

Re: Federal Gold Medal Match 168/308 at Palmetto


I second that.
This is up to a good start; I always enjoy these posts.
Let's see how many shooters are ready to "help" a new guy to get rid of his "crappy" Federal brass.
Btw, I'll take it too; my excuse is that I only shoot "crappy" brass in my crappy rifle, for crappy 1/4 MOA groups. Sometimes it is so crappy that I cannot do any better than a very crappy 1/2 MOA but what the hell, I'll still shoot it.
So, new shooters, do not make the same mistake as we did, get rid of your federal brass before it is too late and send it our way, we are willing to help you.
In addition, considering that the worst of all brass is Lapua, I will also help all FNG's to get rid of it for free, only because I am a nice guy.
DO YOU COPY?
Good laugh, good shooting.
