Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By nelsd99: I'm still shaking my head over just now paying 56 cpr for IMI M855 incl tax & shipping. OUCH! I kind of feel like it's an emergency, and next year this may be unavail or double the price. I've got over 10K rounds, but still feel like I should buy while I can. When I bought my first AR I also purchased 500 rounds of Fed 223 from the LGS for 58 cpr. I vowed to never pay that much again. Looks like I'm getting close!

That is unreal. And a very good example of why CTD is one place I will never buy from. Ever. Ultimately, who is to say it isn't made up of various very cheap brass cased crap ammo... Quote from the link... " This ammunition is accumulated from broken cartons or cases and is being sold as is at a bargain price. " Bargain price ?! 45 bucks for 50 rounds ? Here is the whole discription... BUYER BEWARE "Special Offer on 50 Rounds of Brass Case .223/5.56 NATO Ammunition The bags contains 50 rounds of mixed brands, head stamps, bullet types/projectiles and grain weights of .223/5.56 NATO ammunition. This ammunition is accumulated from broken cartons or cases and is being sold as is at a bargain price. This variety bag of 50 rounds of .223/5.56 NATO brass case ammo may include; Full Metal Jacket, Hollow Point, Soft Point and more varieties of projectiles and various grain weights. Not all bags contain the same variety of .223/5.56 NATO. We only have a few bags to sell, very limited quantities. Use Caution! Closely inspect this ammunition before loading or firing. A very small number of the casings may be damaged. Some other calibers may be mixed in this package. Be on the look out for other calibers in the mix of ammo. Not Returnable This ammunition is not Returnable for any reason, heck at this price why would you even think about returning it. All Sales are Final. A quick look at the various ammo search engines, shows many, many better choices. That comment is meant for the newer members. Don't get ripped off by shady deals. |

Even though I have thousands of rounds on hand from 19 to 32 cent's per round, I've just purchased ( Aug 2020) 3200 rounds at an average of 54 cpr. OUCH!!! This ammo will get more expensive, and it will become more unobtainable. |
