Heads up, your gonna be told to do a search by one of these guys
 I'll tell you that Wolf is not that bad. It shoots well and is really cheap. You have to make your own decision, find some Wolf local and shoot it. If you like it, the ammoman deal is really pretty good. I get it at Gander Mountain for $2.50/20rds. Works out to be around $133/1000rds with tax. Oh ya, make sure it is the new ploymer coated ammo. |

I did do a search of this info! wolf ammo and what i have found is some have probelms and some dont. I have only used wolf for 40 cal and had some problems. (missed fire) out of 100 rounds 10 missed fired. never used it for 223. I wanted to know if this may have been just a bad batch of 40 cal or a larger thing with all different cals. that was more of my question.

You'll save about $20 or $25 with the ammunitionstore.com prices, after shipping is factored in. Depending on where you live relative to the ammo company, shipping is generally around $10-$15, so add that to the price. Ammoman is a good deal if you live on the west coast, and you don't.
Wolf is fine for the vast majority of shooters. Match ammo, or defensive ammo it isn't. For plinking and VERY informal target shooting it's fine. Some people with problematic rifles have reported "issues", but most rifles eat it up like candy. |

Ashton - $$-wise, you are probably better off buying from Ammunitionstore.com. It shouldn't cost $40 to ship to VA (I live in NoVA and it certainly did not cost me $40 when I last ordered 1,000 Wolf 5.56mm from the 'Store). Like a previous poster stated, it's a better deal from Ammoman if you live out on the west coast. You can e-mail Ammunitionstore and get a quote on shipping if you like.
BTW - Ammoman does not ship for free. You think UPS works for free? No. The shipping is in his all-inclusive price. Bad deal if you live close to NJ; good if you live far away. Oh, and I have heard that if you pick it up at his place of business, he cuts the "all-inclusive" price. I have shot a lot of Wolf 62gr and 55gr FMJ 5.56mm ammo thru my AR15 middie. No problems - bang every time. I did have problems with Silver Bear, however. Won't buy that again. I have also shot Wolf FMJ 9mm, .40S&W, .45 ACP & 7.62x39. I have had no problems. I am not a particular Wolf advocate, it's just inexpensive compared to others and works well for me in the plinking ammo area. |

OK, ammostore sells 762x39 for $109+ ACTUAL s/h. AMMOMAN sells(sold) the same for $149 SHIPPED. Since when does it cost $40 to shipp a 20lb box <300mi?  |

If you're looking for a good price on Wolf ammunition, check out the Sportsmans Guide. There are some coupons listed in the Ammunition Forum that will cover the shipping if you buy a couple of cases.
I just bought 3K rounds of the Wolf 55grn FMJ for $359 and change DELIVERED. |

There is a place on ammunition stores website that gives you a quote for shipping
to your zipcode. I have never done business with ammunition store. |

I buy from Ammunitionstore all the time and have never had any issues - their prices are consistently among the lowest (delivered price) compared to many of the other online retailers. I've even picked up cases of ammo at my local gunshow cheaper than they list it on their website...no shipping required!
Anyway, great people to do business with and shipping is reasonable (to Virginia at least). |

LMFAO!!! Thanx Brillo. I found that. I was looking for a specific "free shipping" code. The one for ak-47.net coupon works out for a little bit better of a price on 3 cases.

The GM in Taylor always seems to have a good supply of the new Poly ammo. Can't beat the price

There is no such thing as free shipping, it's there you just have to look. Eric(Ammoman) is a good guy to deal with and his prices are pretty good depending on were you live. |

I would also suggest looking/callinf local stores. I like Barnaul better thanWolf for accuracy. I found that and WinWhiteBox 40pks cheaper at a local hunting store than online and walmart.
$65 for 500 and $12.50 for 40 WWB respectively. I don't know why everyone else on here gets WWB so cheap at Wally's because we pay $14.50 there????? |
