I saw you guys use to sell Silver Bear HP 62gr 223 ammo. Any idea if you'll get anymore? I'm good for at least 1K if the price is right and I'm sure others are on board too. Last time I bought a 1K (in February), I paid $305 with S&H from CTD. Silver Bear is getting hard to find at a good price. You guys always come through!
Also PPU 40 S&W would be nice too! |

Problem is making sure the price is right. Too high and customers will just spend the extra money for brass cased. Too much in the middle and customers will save their money and go for Wolf. Too low and there's nothing in it for us.

Too low and there's nothing in it for us. I completely understand. IMO, Silver Bear is the best steel variant (at that price point) and I'd pay a bit ($0.05 to $0.07) more per round vs Wolf. Maybe some people won't and I don't expect you to cater to my needs. Wolf is looking better of late though. I'm really liking the new WPA Black box. I should shoot up some of my Wolf and see if I really prefer Silver Bear over Wolf. Maybe a head to head challenge next time I'm at the range! Your points are well taken, keep doing what you're doing. You guys will always get my business. Thanks for the response. It is always appreciated! |

Oh don't worry, I think we'll definitely snag some if the price is right, but it's a tough needle to thread.

the importer is out of SB .223, IF he had it it would be close to $300/k for it. FOr that you would be unwise to buy it, and just buy brass cases ammo.
The new WPA ammo is made on the same machine, with the same bullet, and in the same box, only diffence is the polymer case vs zinc plated case. Have you tried the WPA ammo (not wolf, its not the same thing) |

Here is my limit: Cheap Russian surplus stuff, I will pay up to $5/20rd box at the current ammo 'climate' I just paid $114 for 500rds of some 62gr SP russian stuff ($4.56/20) because I have seen the cost of that particular product go up $10 in less than a month |

Have you tried the WPA ammo (not wolf, its not the same thing) Yeah, I have 500 rounds of the WPA Black box. It is not too bad. I'll have to compare it to the Silver Bear I currently have. |
