    Ha, ha! That's a good one. Could be that too.
    I'm an FFL/gunsmith, not the holster company. We specialize in subsonic ammunition and wholesale rifles.

    The deal from Glen's is .29 cents per round delivered.

    If you like ae223 and don't live is a state where there is a Cabela's, that stuff is .27 cents a round delivered (free shipping over $99). Otherwise add your sales tax.. In PA that's .29 cents a round.

    I rather have the LC brass but the ae233 shoots softer and is more accurate out of my 6920.

    That FC brass is just fine. I load it all the time. And I'll take AE223 over any XM ammo any day of the week.

    I was referring to the IMI M855 which is what someone inquired about and which 900ss responded to .29 a round delivered.

    I have been loading the newer FC brass several times over now without issue. The AE223 is fine but a couple hundred FPS slower than the XM193 through my chrony.

    I guess there is some confusion here. I thought we were discussing M855 not M193. When I calculated the price it was .29 cents per round before shipping. That's what I was trying to get at.

    My apologies, you are correct. The OP was inquiring about 855; I got caught up in later posts re: pricing the m193 IMI.

    Sorry about that.

    I just recieved from Widners 1200 rounds of IMI 5.56 62gr from Widners for 346 + 20 dollars ups to the boonies of NC. Thats .30 a round. To bad I can't afford to pick it up over the mountain with out other fees and tax's being added.
