I found these cans rummaging around looking for brass. I bought these a long time ago, probably 10-12 years ago.

Ha. Remember when Botach had IMI M193 in 30rd boxes in 1200 round cases for $190? We used to use it as plinking ammo. Wolf back then was $80/1000, and we regularly cleared out Dick's and Bass Pro of all their Q3131a when it was on sale. We'd buy 10k rounds betwixt three or four of us, several times a year.

I really miss the old $80/1000 Norinco. Smelled like cat piss but it shot great through my ARs.

Got some, $115 from '08.

Their 308 match ammo shoots better than anything else I shoot, they produce some great product for the price.

I bought some of their "match" 308. Out of my Savage 112 fvss it is under a moa. I was very impressed.

My typical results are well under 1MOA.

Crappy cell phone pics I have handy. 5 shot on top, two three shots on the bottom targets. Bottom targets have some 5.56 holes from my son and random math I was doing trying to figure out corrections based on the group center from target center but you get the idea.

I remember paying $68 a 1000 for Wolf 7.62x39 back in the early 2000's when I started getting into guns. Today I'd be happy to see it under $200 a case.

It was the same for 5.45. And I think wolf 223 was like $10 more. I remember seeing pallets of the stuff at gun shows. You could shoot the shit out of the ak's and not think twice. Doubt it will ever go back there

Oh yea....well I had to scrape of the $11.95 price tag of the federal bulk pack of 22I sold the other day....

No telling how many rounds of Federal XM193 I shot up @ $3.50 a box.

Hell, I remember walking away from S&B's XM193 @ $3 a box because it just wasn't worth the money. Damn sure wouldn't turn it down now at that price.

Saddest ammo purchase to me since it is so new was the Hotshot clearout of the romanian ss109 back in late 2009/early 2010.

I remember thinking to myself that it was such good ammo that it justified the $0.25/per round price

I'm sure now with the BATFE threats its probably above $1/round
