They do indeed sell bulk ammo in steel drums.

And?

Left the dock and will be at destination soon.

At least the barrels are making it out of Illinois into a Free State!

If there is new production M193 being loaded at Alton then in a few weeks it will be coast to coast.

SHHH keep it to ourselves.

Now Top Gun has some.

Honestly anytime I saw a barrel of ammo like that for sale it was actually always slightly at a higher CPR cost than equivalent 1,000 round cases were going for at the same time.

I would expect to get a price break on 12,500 rounds but it was always more expensive than buying 12 1/2 cases.

Plus dealing with the logistics of moving it and storing it.

I would love to have a barrel of it if I got 5 cents off of the case price, but not going to mess with it for anything less or especially pay a premium for it!

I looked into buying a barrel of 5.56 when prices were at their lowest a couple years ago. Strangely, no matter how I tried to make the deal work, it came out cheaper to buy 1,000 round loose cases. It was the freight shipping charges that kept killing the bulk savings.

I'll say.  Where would a freedom loving, bulk 5.56 ammo owner to be, look to purchase so much 5.56 love?
