600 more rds. WWB 9mm, 1K more rds. Silver Bear 62gr HP. 4,600 rds. in less than 2 weeks. Really need to find some 45 AUTO and then I'll be set for a long time.

I just bought 1000 rds. from USAAMMO.com. It's remanufactured, all brass 230 gr fmj ammo. Good for plinking. $400.78 shipped.

Good golly. Just picked up 600 more rounds of 9mm at lunch and ordered 500 rds of new AE .45 ACP last night and picked up 600 rds of Federal Champion .45 at Wally tonight.

Prolly going to go get 600 more .45 tomorrow after work.

This is the first time ANY .45 has been in any Wally in Colorado for a longtime. My stash is almost complete.

100rds Federal Gold Medal Match 308 $24/box from Striechers. Helluvuh deal.

Picked up 400 rounds of WWB 9mm yesterday. That was all my bank account would allow for.

The Wal-Mart I went to had a TON of Federal .223 and .40S&W. I'm thinking 10-12,000 rounds of the two combined. The top shelf alone had 4,000 rounds of the bulk pack .223's. Then you had the main shelf where their price sticker was, and then there were probably a dozen or so stacked up behind the clearance binoculars, fishing reels, and GPS units at the bottom of the case.

The last picture is kind of crappy because I couldn't get a good shot without the reflection. The last picture is just the .40S&W that was taking up the top corner. Plus the sporting goods guy probably thought I worked for Dick's or something and was spying on their ammo situation because he followed me halfway across the store before I finally turned around and looked him in the eye, at which point he left me alone.

Ordered 3 SA 7.62 battle packs from Aim. I also picked up a box of the Turkish SS109 ammo to check out, I missed out on the Hotshot stuff though.

Also scored 2 boxes of WWB 9mm, Walmart had shit tons of the Federal 9mm but I don't like it as much as WWB.

at the local rip-off show, i bought 50 rounds of 69g and 50 rds of 75g HPBT from Georgia Arms. looks nice and i wanted something to kill hogs with - no one had nothing over 45g V-Max and 55g FMJ other than this.

Just this past week I have purchased 250rds of Remington UMC [email protected] a box, Dicks Sports has it on sale and since there is one right down the street from me I have been hitting it hard, I promised myself at the first of this year when my stocks on almost everything was low and I couldnt find a damn thing(and if I did it was insanely high) that I wouldnt get caught flat footed again, so I decided then that I would buy a 100rds of so a week(whatever my budget allows and when its available for a reasonable price) and build up my stocks, that way if something happens a week from now or a year from now Im not critically low and scrambling.

Posted: 10/28/2009 12:37:36 AM EDT

Bought another 1000 rds of XM193 and 10 more P-Mags at my gun shop today. $440 bucks/1000, and they have many, many cases. I'm sitting here right now loading my new mags.

Probably go back and grab another 1000, plus 1000 .45 and .40 next week.

They've always got 1000's of everything in stock, so I usually cruise up there every week and buy something. I love a gun store that actually HAS an ammo fort right in the middle of the store.

It's a good excuse to play with all the guns!

Shot 120 rds of PMC .223 55 gr in an attempt to sight in my ACOG. Too windy to get a zero though.

Hope you like supporting the little guy, because you can get 5.56 for close to $100/1000 less shipped.

Just received 1000 rds of .45 acp from USAAMMO. Went through a box and found a 9mm rd mixed in. Checked the remaining case and found no more 9mm rds. This is remanufactured ammo loaded to factory specs. All brass cased. The ammo looks good, all nice and shiny. A few rounds have minor dings on the casing and the necks aren't crimped. Bullets all seated well. Just haven't shot it yet. I Emailed them regarding the discrepancy giving them the lot #.

ETA: Comes like this:

Boxed like this:

Found this little guy in one of the boxes.

[#36]

1098, is there a website for them?

Oh yeah, one 100rd WWB of .45 and one 50rd box Fed Champion .40 from Wally World. I blew the ammo budget on brownells.com.

Yep ARJJ, It's USAAMMO.com. I don't have a link for them.

Well they're sold out now, but Palmetto had Prvi M193 for $359+$12 shipping... so $69 less than the $440/1000 he's paying.

Founds some more WWB 9mm at the Wally and bought my limit of six boxes which is all I could afford. I finally have my 9mm stocks up around where I want them.

An 800 round spamcan of HotShot SS109 from AIM. I can't decide whether I should open it and torch off a few mags or to leave it sealed and bury it behind the henhouse for a rainy day.

Earlier this week I got 1000 rounds of Centurion .223Rem 55gr FMJ for $340 from Ammunition to Go. It came in loose pack bags of 500 rounds each. So far I have stripper clipped 1 bag and had 1 extra round. The rounds had a better than expected polish and I didn't have any canted projectiles like some people have reported with this brand.

Is this your first experience with them?
Are you planning on shooting any of this stuff, or are you packing it away for a rainy day?
I want to know what the stuff is like/what it's functional worth is, compared to other ammo. I've got a few K of Prvi 855 packed away, and the spamcan mentioned above I may leave sealed just because it's airtight. I'm wondering at this point what I'm actually going to shoot besides the cheap surplus 5.45 and some PMC .223 I've got left.
Thanks for any answers.

This is my first experience with Centurion and Ammunition to Go. Standard delivery took 1 week from when I ordered. I didn't have to send copies of any proof of age documents. The hazardous materials sticker was discretely place on the well packaged shipping box.

For now I am putting all of these rounds in clips then sealing them in Army Surplus ammo boxes with desiccant for a rainy day. There is a 100 round bag for $36 available that I was thinking about getting to do a test firing as I am curious to see how they shoot too.

Picked up another 100rds of Remington UMC 223 from the local Dicks Sports, will keep on hitting it as long as the sale last.
