Seriously, I've burned through a lot of ammo in the past
month, and
haven't done any serious reordering.

The three brands of .223 plinking ammo on the right are
pretty much the
same in terms of proper cycling and target results. The
Wolf Gold in the
middle is .27-.28 a round, the least expensive. As far as
I can tell, it
shoots the same as the slightly more expensive American
Eagle on the right.

I'm trying out the CCI "Quiet" in the middle, on top of
the Mini Mags,
in my "silenced" .22LR semi-auto rifle. It's a pretty
weak round and
I've had a few cycling failures with it, but not many.
I'll see how it
works in my semi-auto pistol, once I get the barrel back.
The little red
doohickey on top of the CCI boxes is a thumb loading
assist device for
the Ruger mags.

I'm down to my last box of .38 Specials. Not sure I am
going to order
any more. That's a speedloader on top of the PMC ammo
boxes...with six
rounds of Honady Critical Defense ammo in .357 MAG. It's
a good
anti-zombie round.

Sounds like a hobby you enjoy!

Wal Marts sells .38 Specials at a good price. There's one
over near you.


According to a neighbor who buys ammo at Walmart, he's
paying a lot more
than I do from mail order sources, even when you roll in
shipping. I
believe I paid $13 a box for 50 rounds of .38 Special the
last time I
bought some. Neighbor bought .223 Federals at Walmart, paid
nearly .50 a
round. They are about .30 a round mail order. Best of all,
you don't
have to deal with Walmart.

Wal Mart sells .223 from various makers at various prices,
just as
do the internet folks. I've yet
to see *anything* on the internet cheaper than the same
stuff at
Wal Mart, especially if shipping is
additional.


It's ok John.. It was only a harrytale...

Dunno, I see some pretty good ammo prices online and they seem
to have
most stuff in stock these days.

Oh, I'm sure there are more choices online than at Wal Mart,
but Wal
Mart, at least here, has much
more of a selection than Krause suggests. And, that's
especially true
of .223. Seems like that's all
they have sometimes.



My neighbor reports that Walmart has two types of .223 ammo:

On occasion, decent Federal in brass cases with non-ferrous
bullets, at
about .50 a round. Same ammo, .32 a round on line.

****ty Russian "Tula" and variants, steel cased with ferrous
bullets.
Cheaper than the Federal, eats your barrel.

According to the neighbor, Walmart typically has .45 ACP ammo,
usually
has 9 mm ammo, never has .357 MAG ammo, and if it has .22LR
ammo, it's
the cheap bulk stuff.

And of course buying on line means you're not buying at Walmart.

I wouldn't be surprised if the locals in your neck of the woods are
hoarding all the ammo they can.
That enables them to take pictures of all their ammo to post on the
internet. It's kind of like a
'big dick' thing, as I'm sure you're aware. Whoever's got the
biggest pile wins.



Hoarding? Hardly. We Southern Maryland Yankee Rednecks shoot our
ammo.
This week, I bought 1000 rounds of Wolf Gold at .28 a round, plus
$16 for
shipping. That was $296 for 1000 rounds for brass cased, FMJ
non-ferrous
ammo, or 29.6 a round, including shipping. Similar Federal ammo at
Walmart would have cost just under $500, plus sales tax.








If like California, you are supposed to pay the sales tax owed if
bought
online.

Maryland has no realistic mechanism for individuals for that, though
Amazon
is now collecting for our state.

Is on our income tax form.


I don't live in California.

And you haven't looked at an income tax form in years.
