If you can find a case of 5.56 in that price range you are doing good!

Does your AR eat steel cased ammo? If so try wolf, it is the cheapest there is but not all ARs will feed it. Does your lower have dual feed ramps like an M4 should?

Poly, if you want to unload a kit cheap let me know! hehe BTW, didnt centerfiresystems.com have AN-94 kits not too long ago? They are about an hour from me.
 
actually, ive seen 1000 rounds for cheaper than that. the brands are Silver Bear and Brown Bear. ever heard of these? here's the link....

as far as wolf goes, i havent tried it through my gun yet. ive read a lot of bad stuff about wolf and how some uppers wont feed it well, but i guess i should try a box to see how it works. my uppers is made by CMMG. and yeah, i have the dual ramps on my gun...
 
That is some cheep ammo but do they have any in stock? (i didn't go that far) And for steel cased ammo I won't shoot it through my AR I have heard way to may stories About it scratching receivers for me to want to shoot it no matter how cheep. I mean JC you got a SWEET gun I would hate to see you shoot a box of cheep and scratch the hell out of that gun. If you had a cheep AR or a used one you bought from a buddy or something thats cool but not in a custom gun and not one that it took over 1200 to build or buy.
 
yeah thats true, im still not sure if i mess with steel cased ammo. but what part of the receiver would get scratched by a steel casing?

ive also seen some decent prices for good ammo here http://www.ammoman.com/index.htm i saw 1000 rounds of regular remington for about $380, and prices include shipping
 
Im 90% positive the Silver Bear is steel cased ( I cant access that website from work), its a Russian ammo company like Wolf is.

Steel case wont scratch your rifle and worse then brass, and believe me you will get little scuffs on the case deflector but is what it is for. The worse the steel case stuff can do is not feed properly, but again some ARs feed just fine with it and some dont.

$380 is NOT cheap ammo! Of course the words cheap and ammo dont go together any more. :(
 
yeah, i cant get on the site right now either, but i remember it looking something like the wolf ammo. it did say something along the lines of bi-metal casing, not sure what two metals they could be.

and i agree, $380 for a case works out to $0.38 per round. not much different then buy 50 boxes at walmart that comes out to about $0.43 per round. do you buy ammo in bulk JD?
 
I dont shoot any more. I cant afford to.

I remember paying about 7.5-9cents/round for 7.62x39 and anywhere from 11.5-17.5cents per round for 5.56. 5.56 varies a bit in price. I bought all my ammo at fun shows or from private individuals.
 
yeah man i feel ya. it costs me about $60~80 everytime i go to the range just to shoot my three guns for a bit. these prices are getting ridiculous :irked:
 
Try cheaper than dirt (www.cheaperthandirt.com) they have good deals. I used to get butt-loads of 7.62 in the mail. I want to say it was through TAPCO but Im not sure since they dont do the ammo thing anymore. I'll ask my less stable, more paranoid friends where they buy their bulk ammo since I have different prioritites now.
