Anyway last week I had a panic ammo buy and ordered 17 cases or I forget of .308 and 30.06. Got a few of the LC from CMP the day they went out of stock forever. (got lots of Greek left) five cases from the TFL group buy of which three were match(new prod). A few cases of SA battlepacks from somewhere I sent a check. Huge batch of raufus in .308. seven cases of Greek from CMP, half in bandos. Then I shopped for the odd case here and there, some privi and other stuff which I won't remember until it arrives. Summer Ammo Christmas or something. Ten from CMP, five from the group buy and assorted cases. I can't help it. When the ammo horizon looks grim cause the US Gov just ordered a ten year contract to supply all military calibers. No surplus unless it comes out of hiding from overseas, maybe the South Africans will have another leak. So it's gonna be new production or reloads and I have all the reloading stuff except .308 which is the current years gun habit. Got ammo?

ARDog


pics???  


Only one case came in from all the orders. I will stack it up and take a pic soon. CMP said they would ship the 10 cases in two weeks. That's this Friday if they keep there word, won't take long after that. The TFL group buy cut off is today I think. (5 cases) Then they start shipping. Another will wait to ship two when my check clears. Others soon I think. Patience!

Found out how many boxes of 45ACP fit into a 40mm MK 19 can.

38 boxes of Blazer Brass 45ACP.   Gets kinda heavy when you have almost an entire can that big filled with lead.


On a related note, 45ACP Blazer Brass has gone up to 11.97 a box from 10.97 a box.   Fortunately the last 6 boxes I got I managed to have the difference refunded back, rang up 11.97 on the tape but was 10.97 on the shelf.

The last Blazer Brass 9mm I got was 5 dollars a box :)   I made sure to visit all 3 stores in town buying every bit of it that I could when it was down that low.

When it jumped in price, for whatever reason 45ACP stayed relatively the same, so I've been hording on it as much as reasonable.   Checked the other stores today, they are at 11.97 a box as well which isn't bad but isn't great.

Now I'm gonna fill a MK19 can with as much 9mm Winchester White Box as I can grab at 15.80 a box of 100.   I'm guessing it will wind up around 2400-2600 rounds in that can.

I know the feeling. I just bought 50 of the Cabelas USGI ammo cans thinking that there is no way that I could fill 50 more cans. I have already filled three this week. Oh well.

I grabbed 4000 rds of 9mm for $14.46 at Wallyworld two weeks ago. I returned the next night to buy it so people had their chance! I also managed 800 rds of .40 WWB at $19.99 that's priced at almost $23 now.

The range nearby is selling their cheapest 50 rd 9mm for $12.99 and drop by twice a week and I don't see more than 3 or 4 lanes full.

The range has always seen the white boxes and wheneversomeone has a gun issue they loudly blame it on the WWB ammo as it's "2nds" and you get what you pay for.

I think that's total BS aimed to sell their ammo. Has anyone everherd of an increased problem with WWB ammo?

Anyone think the war in the middle east is ending? I don't. Although I've only gotten the chance to get 200 rds through my first AR I have managed to get 5000 rds at an everage of about $340 delivered.

I have over 1000 rds for my .45 and 500 for my .357.

My absolute low level is half these numbers. It's jusst that I managed to get a check from an account when my wife was away which is half the reason I grabbed all this

Four thousand rounds for only $14.46!!!!!!  Holy cow man, you ROCK!


Most of the Wallys around here have the 100 packs for $15.86, but one of 'em (I don't know why) only wants $13.86.  Go figure, but I go there and buy a couple every chance I get.

'Course if it'd just stop raining so the ranges around here would dry up enough to walk on, that might accelerate my ammo purchases some...

This thread makes me feel like a fool.

I have maybe 25,000 rounds of ammo. 16,000 of that is .22LR, and a little over 5,000 is 5.56. The rest is in various other calibers in quantities of under 1,000 rounds each.

Now with this OSHA crap I am scrambling to get ammo stockpiled.

Take a look at the link in the quote: they're for an MG34, a German pre-WWII machine gun (which was followed by the MG42, upon which much of the M60 was based).  You can see the rest of the gun in the foreground in front of the crates.

Right, the bbls on top are out of extra parts kits for the MG-34.

The gun in the bottom of the pic is a field stripped M60.

that's 5 crates of 768 rounds each Greek, 4 crates 480 rounds each Greek, 8 .30 cal
cans 240 rounds each LC. all of which is .30-06. dunno whats in the 50 cal cans. I also recieved my shipment of ammo from CMP on the 12th.



Can't beat a little over a quarter a round of M2 Ball.

The ammo cans on the lower right: 2 cans of 1000 rds S&B 5.56 from a private sale and one can of .308 Raufus from ammotogo

One more large crate of 30.06 came the next day from the same order. Ammo is equity. Price is not going down. I get the warm comfy feeling of having it and it increases in value. I don't like the OSHA treat or any other. My guns and yours are valueless without ammo. I might not be able to sell certain guns if I don't own the ammo to go with it. No real excuse except it makes me happy. If the time ever comes that we all need it, I will share. I like to think I can make a half dozen phone calls (or contact via radio, etc.) and be quickly set up to handle a large spectrum of bad situations with a rock solid crew, rescue, defense, natural disasters, riots, whatever.

I make sure I have tons of supplies, food, fuels, sundries, medical supplies too. Ammo is only a part of the equation.

Ammo is the fun part!
