With the cost of ammo through the roof I think this might be a pretty good deal on 223 ammo. Dale

I hate to think of that as a bargain and have to wonder if they can actually deliver very many cases of it these days. I think that's close to what I paid for 1000 rounds of it last year when I picked up the ARs. But ya know before things got tight and in such short supply those dang 20 round boxes were going for around $4 each. My how times have changed.

GBO Sponsor Midsouth Shooter's Supply was selling a different brand for over $100 a thousand cheaper at the tme I picked up mine last year. Dunno if the price has gone up or not nor what the stock situation looks like now.

I figure I have more FMJ ammo on hand than I'll live long enough to shoot up so personally am only interested in expanding ammo from this point on. Now iffen it ever drops back to the $2 to $4 per box it once was again I might change my mind on that.

Thats about the going price around home now. At 425 a 1000 that ain't much of a bargain. In November last year I was finding ammo at 165 bucks for 500 and some places you would get a break if you got a 1000.
