    I remember the days when I used to make it a habit to buy 1000 rounds of SOMETHING every month.

    Sadly those days are over.  I haven't bought anything in a while.  Makes me wanna cry.

    I'm really pissed off at the lack of 22 I have.

    I don't know if I'm a whore or not...some might think so but I know I pale when compared to most..my target rather than 1000 rounds per calibre that I shoot is 1000 rounds per gun...I'm gonna be mum on how many guns I gots :)

    I think I'm a slut not a whore. My safe ran out of room, so I filled up my nightstand drawers, that quickly ran out of room. So, I started putting it in the bottom of this large entertainment center, well damn that's full. My Kegerator seemed like a good place to start so I filled that up with ammo instead of beer and I know in a strange way that's a shame. I just ordered another half a case of 5.56 and have it setting in the middle of my living room waiting on its future home, there goes the food pantry

    Fuck yeah the reloading supply's count. Shit who knows what the future holds. Reloading might be the only way we can get ammo in the future.

    I have 2K of various 5.56, an equal amount of 7.62X39, and an equal amount of other ammunition put together.  However I have the ability of loading 10K of various calibers.  I stocked up on reloading stuff.  That said, I just bought 5, fifty round boxes of B H new M262 which gives me 400 rounds of that now.  When I include my reloads with Lapua brass and Nosler 77 grain cannelure I have 600 rounds ready to go.  I can reload 2K of the M262TF as I want.

    15,800 rds at an average price a hair over .39/rd delivered on average. So right around $6162.

     



    I should have bought last year when I saw some XM855 for .29/rd, as always hindsight is 20/20.

    I bought about 5,000 more over the next week and a half.  The only thing I really overpaid on was 1,000 of NM229, that was .54/rd delivered.  Bought another 1,000 of NM229 the same day for .44/rd delivered.  Still high, but I want to try some out on some 1/4" AR500.

    It's more commonly referred to as Carl Gustaf.  It is a hot loaded 62gr projectile consisting of a hardened steel penetrator and a solid steel core.  The powder produces some noxious gasses so it shouldn't be used indoors.  While it's not M995 I believe it will prove to be a better penetrator than standard M855.  While M855 has a lead core and shouldn't be covered by the 86 handgun AP ammunition ban, NM229 has a true steel core and I'm a little surprised it was imported in the first place.

    I bought about 5,000 more over the next week and a half.  The only thing I really overpaid on was 1,000 of NM229, that was .54/rd delivered.  Bought another 1,000 of NM229 the same day for .44/rd delivered.  Still high, but I want to try some out on some 1/4" AR500.  


    newb question.
    what is NM229? TIA
    It's more commonly referred to as Carl Gustaf.  It is a hot loaded 62gr projectile consisting of a hardened steel penetrator and a solid steel core.  The powder produces some noxious gasses so it shouldn't be used indoors.  While it's not M995 I believe it will prove to be a better penetrator than standard M855.  While M855 has a lead core and shouldn't be covered by the 86 handgun AP ammunition ban, NM229 has a true steel core and I'm a little surprised it was imported in the first place.  


    Thanks for the info, would be interested in seeing your test results.

    I haven't shot a round in 3 years.  I hate Kalifornia.  But I didn't stop buying.
