Yes, but I can't get ammo shipped up here in Alaska unless I buy 50,000 rounds of it or more. It doesnt even out with shipping becuase it has to come up by vessel.

I don't know what to tell you man.

Maybe pool your funds with other AK Hometown folks and buy a pallet?

If Winchester would just increase production I could buy it here locally.

$189/1000 (website shows $169 but when I called he said they won't honor that price, it's supposed to be 189) I just bought 2K. shipping to IL was about $25 for both. Not a bad deal.

You're welcome.

That product is Q3131, not Q3131A.  Manufactured at Lake City under contract with Winchester through 1999. Not necessarily better or worse, but not the same.

$130 for 1000 rounds of  IMI 55gr.  I've shot a lot of this in the past and it's good ammo.

I haven't seen that stuff at Academy for a LONG time, but a new store, Sportsmans Warehouse, just opened here, and they have a lot of it.  Kind of weird, but I'll go where the stuff is-even though SW asks $4.29 a box while Academy-when they have it-charges $3.99.

Of course last weekend I was at a Gander Mountain store in Sugar Land, TX, and they had Q3131-for over $5 a box!!!  Ouch!  They're not gettin' my money!

What happens in 87 days? Are you talking about Q3131A?

I just called the new SW here in SA, and they don't have any Q3131A.  Proably would be smart for me to go check myself...

I bought some Black Hills remanuf for $12.45 (IRRC) for 50 rounds at Cabela's - shoots well enough.   It's listed on the Cabela's site, and the store in Buda has it.

Kind of a long drive for MST2 though...  Might want to check on their shipping prices.

I bought a few boxes of Q3131A from SW in Lewisville a couple of weeks ago. Had I known it's so hard to find I would have picked up more.

Maybe they had a mix up in their inventory, but 5 minutes ago UPS just delivered 2 cases of Q3131A. Total with shipping was $406.00. Edit... not bad for 1 day ground shipping from Louisville

Yup...I received 1000 round case today of Q3131A from KYimports.  I asked them, when I called, to confirm the make of the Q3131 ammo they had advertised and the lady said they had some of the 3131A.  Sure as shit, they do.

Thanks for the heads up. I just ordered 1000 rounds today for $207.99 shipped. The lady on the phone looked and confirmed that it was in fact Q3131A, she even double checked for me. This is a great price and should just about complete the 5,000 rounds that I wanted to have for long term storage. Thanks again

That "lady" is the key.  I called to buy some of the IMI 55gr and she said they were out.  I asked if the Q3131 was mislabeled or was it Q3131A.  She said, "no, it's Q3131 but with have some of the 3131A...double and triple checked and sure as shit, it's the A.

I was just at the SW near 281 and 1604, and they did not have any Q3131A.

They did have BH remanuf 55 gr FMJ for $10.99 per 50 rnds - which is about $1.50 less than Cabela's - not to mention the drive.
