I just bought 7.62 x 39 (Wolf HPs) from Copes distributing for 33 cents a pop, delivered. This caliber weathered the storm better than most.. something to consider when buying your next rifle or PDW

Just picked up 4 boxes of CCI Stingers (50) at Bi-Mart for $5.99 each

Thanks man hopefully we are at the end of this bs. If these fn dirtbag resellers would just leave what they don't need on the shelves woulda been over a while ago. They claim its American free market. I disagree

Every single time I've been to Bi-Mart in the last month they've had .45 ACP just sitting on the shelf.
Everyday. 4-5 boxes .45 ACP 100rd WWB, I don't have a .45 so I never checked the price. I think it's about $48-$50

5.56 - 1000rd Federal - $399.99
.223 - 200rd Remington - $80
.45 - 250rd Bulk Packs -??

Thanks for doing this. It is great!

Thanks for posting this up.

No problem, I should have made this list a months ago. Now if we can all just steer all of these new gun owners to this list, then we can slow or eliminate the "over-priced" ammo market in the classified section.

I am sure that there are a number of gun owners out there that was caught unprepared, I know that they have learned their lesson (I know several of them personally).

As I mentioned to them before, they do not need to buy all of the store's in stock ammo in one visit, all you have to do is, when you visit a store, pick-up a box or two of ammo, in a year's time you would be amazed how much a person can accumulate.

Hate to say it but this IS the free market, at the retail level

This is a hard one, it depends on your flavor, here are a couple of links that will give you an idea for 9mm:

Midway charges way too much to ship ammo. Even more than Cheaper Than Dirt and Natchez.

Only one cure for this. DON'T BUY FROM THEM!

As I've stated before, if I run out of ammo or components for my "fun shooting", I'll buy a slingshot before I buy from one of the Scalper/Profiteer/Reseller/Opportunists that have been stripping the shelves. Let them choke on their speculative purchases.

Copes has a $9.95 flat rate shipping no matter how much ammo. No ORMD. Get on their e-mail list

Thanks, I have a Cabela's card for $5 shipping. Gander Mountain is free shipping over $50 but there is a $9 per order ammo surcharge. Palmetto State Armory is another good one with only $7 shipping.

With Cabela's, Sportsman's Warehouse, Bass Pro Shops and probably others, you can order online and shipped it to the store for FREE.

But Cabelas is an odyssey. You must make 4 + trips just to walk the store. Plus they actually have ammo and guns, guns, guns. They even had Nano mags. Reloading stuff? Hardly any
