Cmp posted the greek HXP ammo on its webb site.
192 rounds in clips for $96.00 + 8.95 shipping = .5466 per round 240 rounds in 20 rd boxes/ per spam can $120.00 + 15.95 shipping = .5664 per round |

| Un fortunatly it went up like all other ammo. I ordered 3 cans since I dont have any and my first garand will be here soon. I have the equipment to reload...just not the time. I can get to the bench every few weeks so having something on hand to shoot makes it worth it fo me. |

I placed an order yesterday for 3/192 rd. on clips cans. 
Yea, the price has gone, .54/rd., up but what ammo hasn't? It's still not too bad for military M2 ball. My first lot last March cost me .3125/rd. for the 192 rd. can before tax picked up in Anniston. The second lot cost me .2791/rd. for the 240 rd. can before shipping. The third was .390/rd. for the 192 rd. can before shipping. I will buy 3 cans a month until I reach my 10 can limit for the year, which is still in place until CMP determines just how much they will actually get. Yes, I reload, have done so for 47 years but I still like to shoot ball thru my M1s.

Its still a good deal for what you are getting . Price is compareable to 7.62 surplus. x54r? I would imagine the 240 round cases pricing more because you get the wooden crate with those? They don't ship the spam cans in the wooden crate anymore. Last time they had the empty wooden crates for sale but they are not listed as such on the e-store right now. |

Did you guys have to call them and order it does not show a price when I have looked it up on the Estore it is listed but comes up with no price. You need to have an account and be logged in to seee the prices I believe. Ammo has some requirements to buy like the rifles. |

BECAUSE...........of the clips and bandolier. BTW, remember that.........the 10 can limit is still in effect. Aloha, Mark PS............IIRC, last year............ Using the price of the 240 rds spam can.............to figure out a "base line cost per round." When I compared the purchase of 240 rds w/o clips vs. 192 rds w/ clips..........the clips were an added cost of about .36-.37 per clip. And, that wasn't counting anything for the bandolier. Then later, there was the reusable GI ammo cans vs. spam cans. Oh well............IMHO, buy it now (and have no regrets later). Because in the past........the ammo prices, as well as the shippping prices, only went in one direction. |
