I bought a few boxes of these last week for $24 a box, free shipping,
which works out to be .08 a round. These are pretty much the same as
CCI's round nose Mini Mags, which, if you shop around can also be found
at about the same price. This is about half the price they've been
selling for, when you could find them, six months ago. My heart doesn't
go out to the ammo hoarders who bought up pallets of CCI .22LR ammo in
the hope of becoming lifelong scalpers and being able to resell it at
two or three times these prices.


Please tell me you didn't actually take a picture of ammo to post
showing that you bought some. Or, did you run out to your Maryland Red
Barn, where the owls roost, and take a picture of an ad?



Naw...manufacturer's stock photo. If I posted a photo of my ammo supply,
you'd brownstain your shorts.

Harry, you got 5000 rounds of .223?

Hell, I still have a partial brick that has a $13.95 price tag on the end.
Noticed in the drawer of hunting stuff a while back


I still think there is a lot of air under ammo prices and there is
another 30% or more it will drop before it starts creeping back up..



Maybe. In the months I've been shooting my Colt AR15, the price of
decent quality (new ammo, brass cases, fmj, et cetera) Federal and Wolf
Gold plinking ammo, 55 grain, has dropped from about 32 cents a round to
27 cents a round. The Russian crap TULA stuff is about 21 cents a round,
though a friend who bought some at Walmart paid 26 cents a round last
week. Blech. Walmart shoppers, beware.



Nothing wrong with steel cased Tula. More people have good success with it than those who don't.

Not yet, but I'm working on it. I keep using it up.

This is what a *really* good supply looks like:

The coated steel TULA bullets are tough on barrels. Tested and proven.
And steel cases are tougher on rifle innards than brass cases.

Nice shot of the utility pole. Unfortunately you seem to have missed

harry would kill to be able to live somewhere like that. Unfortunately, he's persona non grata in the state of Florida. He can't own property there, doncha know.



1. Nope.

2. Wrong.

3. Wrong.


Duval County public records are wrong?

I have a genuine COLT AR-15 *and* an S&W AR-15/22, which shoots .22LR.

They look similar:

The one in the center is the COLT. It shoots .223/5.56.

Oh, ok. Hey Harry, you got about 18,000 rounds of .22 lr?


Nope. I'm not a hoarder. I only have 40 100-round boxes of Mini Mags,
five boxes of 300 each AR Tacticals, and a few bulk boxes of Federal and
Winchester rounds. Probably just over 5000 rounds.

Since he is afraid to go outside of Maryland he will have a difficult
time shooting more than 10 rounds at a time.



Do you low brain outputters stay up late thinking up this ****? I was in
DC over the weekend and in Virginia last week and the week before, and I
have trips to Florida and California on my schedule for early 2015. And
what does the "10 round" comment mean? Are you on the sauce again?
