You got it brother.
I've picked up almost a case over the last month or so.
Best price now is on the half case (37¢/rd prior to tax and shipping)
https://www.sportsmansoutdoorsuperstore.com/products2.cfm/ID/205991

Since I'd picked up a good amount of the Frontier 75 recently, today [payday woohoo] - I picked up a half case of GDot 75g for 60¢/rd delivered)
https://www.targetsportsusa.com/speer-gold-dot-le-duty-223-remington-ammo-75-grain-sp-24475-p-78208.aspx  
Kind of a premium price, (vs. the Wolf/M193 etc.) - but it is very good multi-performance ammo (for my intended purposes) out of my 16" (1/7) rifles.

I've had really good success with the 75 grain gold dot, is this the best price ( $299 for 500 rounds) we will see for a while?

Hard to say. I definitely stocked up on a number of cases of the 64g when PSA was having their 10 boxes for $99 and free shipping.
Every payday. Like clockwork.  Too bad it's much more than that now. :-|  Oh well, makes the 75g look better. :D

I just recently purchased that same case from Sportsmansoutdoorsuperstore as they have the best price right now.  I use AmmoBuy.com to keep track of best prices on 5.56 Hornady ammo -> https://www.ammobuy.com/ammo/556-nato&grains=75&manu=18 I have this set as my home page haha.  It seems like Sportsmans and TargetSportsUSA have the best prices and shipping these days.

"Due to overwhelming order volume over the past week we are not currently accepting new orders. We are currently approximately 10 days behind on filling orders and the priority is going to be given to filling existing orders. We will begin to restore inventory later this week once we have a handle on shipping all orders that have been placed so far."

Similar story for Target Sports USA, but they don't do backorders and have almost nothing left to sell. I knew I should have gotten 1000 rounds instead of only 200 on my last order. I have notifications set up for when they do restock.

Target Sports USA Customer,

**Please expect 10-day shipping delay on all orders due to the increase demand.**

We are doing everything we can to ship your order as soon as possible including: implementing a second shift, hiring additional employees and offering overtime to our office staff to keep up with compliance requirements and any customer inquiries. Please note even with these changes, we also have a huge increase in customer email & phone call volume so please bear with us for any delays in response. You can check your order status online at www.TargetSportsUSA.com under My Account.

We are also working closely with all manufacturers to keep products in stock at competitive pricing. Unfortunately, we have been informed that all manufacturers are now shipping product at an increased cost, due to demand. We are doing everything we can to mitigate these costs for our customers while trying to keep as much inventory as we can in stock.

We are thankful for our Prime Members and customers for their patience and understanding during this time! We are doing everything we can to navigate during these difficult times.

Stay Safe!

Sincerely,
Target Sports USA Team

I’ll be honest, I haven’t read through this thread and am hoping I can get a quick reply.

Whats the situation with ammo around San Antonio, TX? My sister is looking to purchase a handgun and wants to get something that she can get ammo for right now. Spare me the “she should have been prepared” replies. She finally decided it’s a good time to invest in a gun even though she had plans to buy one, but realized she needs it sooner than later.

If you don't get a good answer here, the Texas hometown forum might be able to help you out.  The short answer is that everything nationwide is running out fast in full COVID-19 panic mode.  This thread in the Texas HTF paints a similar picture.

Can your sister go to a local gun shop on her own to make the handgun purchase?  It's possible a local gun dealer might keep a few boxes of ammo handy for people purchasing firearms if the general supply is low.

Sweet. Thanks for the link.

My sister has my nephew with her. He’s old enough to buy a long gun (which he already has), just a few months away from being able to purchase a handgun. he can accompany her to gun stores. I told them to check out pawn shops as well if she doesn’t want to spend the coin on a brand new gun. I also let them know they can order ammo online.

Midsouth has Norma Tac .223 for .35/rd + shipping.  Limit is a 500 round case and 25 boxes of 500.

https://www.midsouthshooterssupply.com/item/00350295040020c/norma-tactical-223-rem-55-grain-fmj-500-round-case-

https://www.midsouthshooterssupply.com/item/00013295040020/norma-tactical-223-rem-55-grain-fmj-20-rounds

To get 1,000rds you have to buy one case of 500 and 25 boxes of 20.  Shipping showed $16 on 1,000rds.

IIRC, this is loaded at Lake City.

Norma Match 77gr is about to run out at Targetsportsusa. This is very accurate match ammunition, on par with 77gr Gold Medal match and slightly cheaper.

If you want some match grade ammunition at a decent price, this may be it for the next few months.

Multiple reports of kabooms with that stuff if I'm remembering the right brand. Think it may have been narrowed down to certain lots but Hornady reportedly blamed it on out-of-battery discharges and took no responsibility. I won't use it.

ETA: The threads should be further down in this subforum

I'm pretty wary of the Frontier line. I would much rather have PMC, Norma, Wolf Gold or Federal/AE.

Also don't forget Global Ordnance still has 55gr and 69gr ADI stuff. Definitely not for plinking, but they have $12 flat shipping and you're looking at 50.4 cents/each for a 69gr load. You put 1 in the cart they send 2. So 400 rounds for $189 plus shipping

Be quick... XM193 back in stock at Palmetto for $409.99 per thousand. Actually comes to about $0.46 per round after taxes and shipping.

Not terrible compared to the alternatives right now, but not good. I will never pass on another $289.99 sale with free shipping.
