First let me welcome you to AR15

IMO Walmart is the worst for 223 deals and not be a smart ass but have you been under a rock????   CHEAP 223???? If you want cheap think reloads, I have a guy locally I get mine from 50 rounds brass case 16.00

Good luck and if you find any good deals lets us know

I've been able to get 100 rnd Federal value packs of .223 from Walmart in the not so distant past,   $39/100rnd.

you have to check around, and get there at the right time to find it before it's gone...   good luck!

I think it's Kabe's or something like that (?) out near Canton that's got 1000rd cases for $350 or so.  I've been meaning to get down there but haven't.  Fin Feather Fur (or Fin Fur Feather or Feather Fur Fin or whatever) has also been suggested, but it's a hike, and I've heard they sell out quick when shipments come in.

Kame's in north Canton, don't know if they still have it but they had PMC Bronze for $359/1000. Give or take 10 bucks.

Do cheap and .223 still belong in the same sentence anymore??

Kames in Canton was selling PMC for $6.99. Its been about a month since I was there, but they had quite a bit then.

I walked through Dick's Sporting Goods in Columbus this weekend and there was very little ammunition of any type on the shelf.

Why doesn't AIM Surplus get mentioned on this board more often or at all?

I regularly buy .223 Centurion from AIM at $170 per 500.  I'm no techno-expert but I like this stuff.  It's brass for the price of steel.

Seems like a great deal to me.

Call them, don't rely on their website.  They don't have to publicize the stuff to sell out of it.

The guys at AIM are very good to deal with.  I've never heard a bad thing about them and never had anything but good experiences myself..

Ahhhh, that would be two months ago.  I feel like a shill for AIM.  They get a lot of product in that never hits their website.  In fairness, I ordered in the last few days of Dec 2008 and received it in the first few days of Feb 2009.  I got a follow up email that they had more available a few weeks later after they had filled the orders they had built up.  I think they are making a business decision not to advertise it, sell out in a few hours, and piss off their customer base.

Moral to the story, if you want something AIM sells, call them, they will work with you.  More than likely you will become a happy AIM customer.  AIM is my first choice for ammo.  If it's .223 buy a couple 1000 rounds.  If it's .45, buy 1000 at a time.  Then watch for availability or if your getting short, make the call.

Between price and product, I just don't know why AIM isn't #1 on this site?

A simple email followed by a phone call to AIM proved me a fool for doubting you on the availability and price.  And totally agree about the service there.

we are taking orders for the centurion, last week it was about a week wait for it, but i had allot of dealers jump on it this week so a new order will be about 3-4 weeks delayed.  
$169.95   500rd can Centurion,

and before anyone asks the counter is still closed but its getting close to re opening.

That is good to hear, especially the fact that stores near me are selling the same exact ammunition at $250 per 500rd can. $170 a can is a hell of a deal this day in age.

That's what I'm talkin about,,,,

AIM is the real deal especially if you are local and they reopen the "Crown Room"
