Which Ammo to buy?

Thats CRAZY. I can get boat tailed hollow points for that.

speaking of bthp

A few months ago somebody ran a special $240 for a case of wolf 65 gr boat tailed hollow pt. I grabbed 2 cases. Its certainly not going to be my primary self defense or shtf ammo, but it is better than 55gr fmj

To the OP: You're local gun shop is trying to gouge you.

I hate to refer somebody to TOS, but if you're looking for ammo, then this is a good place to start:

PMC is what I use in my ARs and save the Wolf for my AKs. ( Both .223) Oh,

You will realize that the PMC has a funny smell when fired. My personal favorite for plinking and reloading is 55gr Privi XM193. Make sure you get a primer pocket tool to help chamfer the crimped primers. The best you can get I think is the Lake City 62 gr. ss109.

I'm curious as to which dept. store. The only department stores I can think of that carry ammunition around here are Wal-mart and K-Mart and they're usually out of anything good. AFAIK, they never stock XM193.

Surplus Ammo was just selling PMC at $364 per 1000 shipped. $7.28 per box to your door.

They are probably out but I would call to make sure.

I bought 10 boxes of federal xm193f anoka mn, for 9.99 per box for 20 rounds.

Yeah it seems like the prices have been going up. I would love to buy th M193 ammo. But finding a place that is cheap enough, so I don't feel like I just got boned. Thats the big problem.
