Just a thought for you guys who don't yet load your own. Because I can get (seemingly) limitless free 5.56 brass at my range, I can load 1000 rounds for less than $150. Even if I had to buy used brass, my cost would only be about $170. I also shoot about 25K of handgun ammo annually, at an average cost of about $120 per 1K, and that includes a lot of 10mm, 41mag and 44mag which are horribly expensive in the stores. If you're gonna shoot serious quantities, you need to reload. Plus, it's fun.

Check out Cabela's Bargain cave, they have some decent priced brass.

I barely have time to shoot much less reload. I do keep my brass though. No sense in just giving it to reloaders. ;D

Anyone know where to get Lake City SS-109 M/855 ammo? It's hard to come by lately.

Ammoman HAD it for $475 per 1000 - but that was sold out last week... (2000 rounds for $900 delivered)

You can get on their mailing list, but as I learned - you gotta get online with an hour of receiving their message.

Lex had a link in here somewhere that showed all the bargains. Anyone remember which thread that was?

+1 for reloading.

55gr plinking ammo will be more accurate than milsurp and it is only 14 cents a round shipped to your door.

Just a thought for you guys who don't yet load your own. Because I can get (seemingly) limitless free 5.56 brass at my range, I can load 1000 rounds for less than 0. Even if I had to buy used brass, my cost would only be about 0. I also shoot about 25K of handgun ammo annually, at an average cost of about 0 per 1K, and that includes a lot of 10mm, 41mag and 44mag which are horribly expensive in the stores. If you're gonna shoot serious quantities, you need to reload. Plus, it's fun.

Sorry guys, this is way off track from the original subject...

Charliea, what kind of 41 Mag do you have? I recently picked up a nice Ruger Blackhawk .41 in a trade and am setting it up with a Millet mount and scope. I figure it should be good out to 100 yards. I also picked up 500 rounds of 210 gr JHP (Mountaineer brand) ammo for $140 delivered. It was a steal compared to anything else I've found.

Before all this, I went to Wal-Mart and asked the guy behind the counter if he had any .41 Magnum ammo - he had no idea what that was and when I pressed him some more, he got all self righteous and said that was a 'wildcat' load. I tried to explain to him that .41 is not a 'wildcat' caliber, and that Ruger still makes/sells pistols in this caliber today.

We just kinda looked at each other for a few more seconds, so I just shook my head and walked away...

Like a fool I then went to Cabela's and paid $42 for a box of (50) Remington before I found the other deal online. Now I can't find that dang URL so I can order some more!!! :duh:

Ammo 2 Go usually has the Ingman stuff made in Bosnia. I've only seen the Winchester stuff lately. Never the Federal Lake City.

For handgun / pistol ammo, its hard to beat the local Wal-Mart, and the one I've been going to just started carrying JHP's and premium ammo...

100 rounds Winchester White Box .45 for $29.88

100 rounds WWB .40SW for $26.88

100 rounds WWB 9MM for $19.88

Now on the other hand, they jut started carrying WWB .357SIG and I paid $28+ for a box of 50!

Ammoman beats that price by a lot, but I got carried away and bought 5 boxes anyway. :duh:

 

[captain92]

For .40, 9mm and .45 I find it hard to beat just walking into Wal-Mart and picking it up. Plus, brass cases.

Good deal TX - I couldn't find that thread!

 

[DSM]

If I'm not mistaken these guys are Aguila out of Mexico according to their website. Only shot their rimfire and it went bang every time so shouldn't be too bad I'd reckon.

 

[Cruzzer]

I've been using Aguila .45ACP for a few years now, very good stuff. It is made in Mexico and is a Remington subsidiary, I think? ???

 

[sikocycles]

I have been buying my ammo here.
