depends on the price i guess.

I've had pretty good results out of it (68 grainers), but I (used to) get a 50 round box for $8.79.

I've had better luck with Black hills reman. though so that's what I'm using.

If that is the reman ammo in the red, white, and blue boxes, that I bought at Galyans for 50 rds for $10 years ago...it shot fine for me.

I've ran right about 3k of it with no problems. Shoots pretty well. It's not Black Hills, but it's decent.
I can tell you that the guys in the ammo forum don't like it at all.

if you could get 17 cents a round...

other factors come into play now. You're talking about 100 bucks at the current price(95 to be precise).

unless this is a one shot opportunity, get 150, see how it groups, and go from there.

also, I'd make sure it's the heavier loadings not the 55gr.
otherwise, opt for surplus ammo (AIMSurplus comes to mind)
