Rural King sells 5.56 NATO for 16.99 for a box of 50. Works out to be 0.3398 per shot. Which, surprisingly, is cheaper than the same quantity box of .223, which is priced at 2 bucks more. Brand is GECO. Never tried it before, so I bought 100 rounds to try. This is BRASS cased, btw, not steel. Best local price I was able to find for ammunition, period.

^ That is not a sale price, btw. All day, every day.

EDIT: Also like to throw in that they are not loosely packed. They're on plastic, ten round, stripper clips. The stripper clip did not fit into my GI surplus..... whatever the name is for the piece you slot on top of the mag and feed strippers into it. I'm sure the name will hit me eventually

That's a really good price.  The pic is 2015 production, which was very accurate as I remember.

So now CTD is okay when the price is convenient?

Not white knighting for CTD by the way, just making a point that this is just silly with the hate.

Federal American Eagle 9x19 115 grain $179 after two rebates and a free shirt.

Go through all the steps. It will be free ship. It does lead you to believe there will be shipping charges, but there won't be.

ETA: just saw your order was 11:30 EST. My second order was about the same time. My order number was 16350328, what was yours?

To be fair the CTD ammo deal was posted almost everywhere on this site, nothing new for canceling as other places have cancelled too when the deals are plastered everywhere and everyone and their 87 family members and friends are doing it too.

Next time, order it, wait for tracking that it was shipped or at least a shipping label was created and your account charged before you folks plaster it everywhere. I dunno though, I might be talking too much sense here and this is arf.

Which one do you guys think is better, Winchester or PMC X-Tac 5.56?

Winchester has better case volume for making good reloads but I have had meh groups from the factory and got better groups using the brass to make my own. PMC is good ammo but not as good as the Winchester brass for reloading.

Just my opinion from my own experiences.

To be fair, CTD posted about the deal on the front page of their own website and in an e-mail blast.  I'm not sure it was a "secret".

Why does it matter who posts about a deal or where/when they post about it?  Are you trying to imply that CTD is canceling orders just because too many people posted about their sale?  

My guess is that CTD didn't know how much inventory they actually had at their drop ship warehouse and took too many orders, or there was so much interest that they decided to cancel some orders so they can restock the items in the next few days at a higher price (as someone already alluded to above about CTDs less than stellar business practices).

That has got to be close to manufacturing costs and shipping costs.  European labor is not cheap.

I believe Lithunian labor costs are among the lowest in the EU, so I would say there is likely plenty of money to be made at $0.25/rd...

Hopefully there is more of this to come and it sticks around awhile, rather than being one off sales here and there.

Lol.  .25/rd brass cased ammunition in an ammo can doesn't have much headroom.  The price won't be sticking around.  My estimate is that Cheaper Than Dirt lost money on this.  Probably broke pretty close to their purchase price but by the time it was shipped and paid employees they're back to zero or under.
