I just was on AIM surplus's website and I found this.

Looks like a tempting price, but I have never seen ammo like this.
Does anybody have any idea of who could be making this and for that price?

I thought that maybe that ammo in the review was different since it had winchester headstamps while this new stuff has M193 and 08 as the headstamp. I guess the headstamp is what is confusing me.

Thanks for the link. I'll probably buy some, the price is pretty good.

Comes out to $6.79 per box without shipping.

That's not too bad.

I just put my order in today for a case. They said they were out right at this moment but they would be getting more in shortly.

Picked up a case last week; haven't tried it yet. Looks very clean.

I came home from work to see a 27lb. box of ammo sitting on the floor next to my wifes feet, standing over the box with a "WTF" kind of look on her face. I have to take her out to dinner tonight, because if theres enough money for ammo, then theres enough to go out to eat. :D

BTW- Its tuesday, two days early and it looks good I cant wait to shoot it.

Thanks man,
Seth H.

No wife here, no funny looks either. But the UPS guy gives me dirty looks a lot.

Whats the deal?
I called "AIM" last friday to order another 2K and to see if there was a discount for doing so, guy told me to hold while he went back to his desk. About ten minutes later an answering service came on and told me to leave a message, I did and got no call back. Throughout the day, I called probably 3 or 4 dozen times and all day long the line was busy. Man I hope I wasent getting "the big F-U", cuz I really like this stuff.
Thanks,
Seth H.

They're probably being overrun like any other dealer of anything gun related.

Lots of companies are not taking calls, like MSTN, I would try to email- or just order.
Everyone is up to their A-holes in orders.
