Hello Everyone,
Well, it’s that time again! The Bi-Monthly group ammo buy. We purchased over 38,000 rounds on the last buy and the consensus seems to be that every other month would be a good interval.
In April’s buy, I actually picked up the order in AZ but this month we will have it shipped. We will pay for freight of course but we will not be liable for Nevada sales tax so it will be a wash. Freight should run “ABOUT” $6-8 per 1000 rounds. This will depend on the weight of the total order. The bigger the order, the less the freight. Let’s shoot for 50,000 rounds this month! I know we can do it considering we did nearly 40,000 on the first buy.
Again, I will front the cash for the purchase but we will have to tighten up the order dates and delivery/pickup dates a little. I will accept orders by email until close of business on Thursday, June 19th. I will then process the order with J&G on the 20th and overnight the funds to them. The goal is to have the order available to pick up at the DBS Shoot on the 28th. I will make one or two more opportunities for delivery for those who can’t make the DBS. One perhaps at Desert Sportsman in the evening of July 1st. Other arrangements can be made on a case by case basis like the last one. My goal will be to have all ammo delivered and money collected by July 5th or 6th.
As for the prices, J&G has promised tier 2 dealer pricing on this next order with some tier 3 prices on some calibers and brands. My goal is to have some of these prices posted here this Wednesday. In the mean time, check out their website at
www.jgsales.com or in their ad in Shotgun News to see what they are selling these days start getting your order planned. One of the goals for doing a group buy is to encourage more of you to come out and shoot with us so even if you haven’t attended any of these shoots please send me an email to me and tell me what you want. Last month we had a couple of guys participate whom I had never met personally but did know someone I knew. As long as the ammo is not something real exotic there should not be a problem.
I will get the ball rolling with 4,000 rounds for myself and I will update the thread header with a running total as orders come in. The email address to send orders is
[email protected]. Email me here as well with any related questions you might have and I hope we get a good load coming from Arizona!
P.S. For those who are looking for some blasting/plinking .223 ammo, I recommend trying some of the new Wolf. They have done away with that red sealer crap and I have already put nearly 2000 rounds of it through my AR’s without a hiccup. I had tried the old stuff before and could not get more than a couple of mags through without having to take a brush to the chamber. It also looks like they have South African .223 in stock again. It does not look like surplus but their advertised price is $149/1000.
Also, I plan to order this as a will call pick up at the UPS depot at MLK and Bonanza. If anyone has a truck and is willing to help, I will probably need a second set of wheels for pickup and delivery out to Sloan on Saturday. Let me know if you are willing to help, thanks.
