I've been shooting Winchester white box from walmart for a while and am looking for a better deal. I was thinking about buying a case online in an attempt to save some money. What do you guys use besides Winchester white box. I will be using this in a glock 22 and 27.

I like Blazer Brass 180 grain ammo a lot. When I can find it I like to use the Blazer Aluminum cased ammo. It's just as accurate, goes bang every time, and cheaper than the brass cased stuff. I use palmettostatearmory.com for my bulk/target ammo purchases. I use SGAammo or AmmoToGo for self defense ammo purchases.

Thanks guys

I'm going to look into some of the aluminum cased stuff since I don't reload.

Aluminum Blazer ammo is all I shoot out of my 1911's. Its reasonably priced, very clean, and accurate. You won't be disappointed. Since you don't reload your not going to be recovering your brass so why not shoot aluminum cases.

The Blazer Brass is the most accurate "practice grade" ball ammo I've shot in my FNP-40.

It's cleaner than the WWB as well.

SG ammo has a great thanksgiving sale.

if you are looking for really good cheap ammo, then look into http://www.usaammo.com/40-Caliber-C9.aspx right now all they have in stock is brand new FMJ and JHP at great prices, but if you check back they will have reloaded ammo at fantastic prices.

Uh, WW ammo is 13.50 for Federal FMJ here....all previous suggestions seem to exceed that cost, even in 500 packs...

Damn, sorry.....We have a fancy new WW opened up two weeks ago, they don't sell AR's like some reports here. No firearms at all, can't figure out why WW thought S. TX wouldn't be a good market for firearms sales in their new stores...

I was in my Wally World yesterday up here in Ohio, and they wanted just over $20 a box for 9mm 115gr. WWB.

Thank goodness for internet sales.

Walmart, Federal 40 S&W $18 per box or Dick's Sporting Goods, if you have one is reasonable as well with Remington

American Eagle 180 grain @14.99 for 50 rounds @ Cabelas this weekend in Connecticut. I ended up at Jo Jo s for 17.99 since Cabellas was 3 bucks worth of gas to get there.

This stuff was under $14 per 50 last week at CTD. Says it's now out of stock, FWIW.

I hear it's cleaner than WWB.
