Who has the best prices on ammo in the higher grain 223/556  in the 65-77 grain range. I just got a new scope on my 1/7 twist ar and xm193 just isn't going to cut it for sighting in.  Today I'm in Madison but next week i will be in Milwaukee too.

Thanks

Madison sucks for ammo.

You're not likely to find anything beyond 55gr or 62gr, and even if available it will be sorely overpriced.

Any reason you can't mail order? Palmetto State Armory has free shipping, so you can buy a few boxes of one of the following:
PRVI Partizan .223 Match HP BT 69gr 20rds - $9.39
Federal Premium .223 77gr Sierra Matchking BTHP Gold Medal Match GM223M3 - $18.99
Hornady Steel Match .223 75gr BTHP 80261 - $34.95

If you're looking to start shooting those heavier bullets and going for accuracy, I think you'll have to start reloading if you aren't already.

In that case, I can recommend recobs target shop for components, bullets, powder, primers.

Yeah reloading is on my to do list . It just got pushed back a ways after buying my first house last year. Hopefully this fall or winter ill get the stuff I already have a few books I read through and i went to flames classes . Just life kicking my ass these days seems when ever I have money saved up something always comes up with the house or my truck that's more important
