The GOOD DEALs and INTERESTING find thread!

I've got a few thousand rounds of 300BLK factory ammo, and probably 400 rounds of 110 grain Barnes good stuff stocked up. The rest is 155 match, and 208 AMAX with only a little subsonic stuff left. I really need to get into reloading.

Good you have a few thousand rounds stocked up, and the 110 gr Barnes is awesome ammo. That's what i keep loaded for defense, and then i shoot steel etc with the other stuff. Reloading is awesome for 300 BLK, as you can generally reload for quite a bit cheaper than factory, and the ammo shortages don't hurt as bad because you can keep reloading as long as you have materials. I picked up a Dillon 650 progressive reloader a few years ago, which makes it easier to load in bulk. I can load 100 rounds in about 10 minutes once i have it set up.

I think you are correct, I see cheap ammo prices down a little (Wolf and Tula), but nothing great. Personally, I'm only shooting cheap stuff right now.

OTOH, if Trump wins that might be enough reassurance for Federal etc. to go to three shifts and consider expanding... demand is only gonna keep going through the roof, and at some point something's gonna have to break loose and start expanding supply to tap that.

I hope so. I was in a rough financial place when all of this stuff started to lift off, and I could only grab one case of 9mm locally that was on "sale" I'm now conserving everything lol

I hope so too, when you're a freelancer stuck taking care of an aging parent AND one of their older siblings there's no such thing as a "NOT-rough financial place." Ammo is still cheap compared to any of us losing our lives... the problem is finding something Duty Grade at all to begin with, I suspect most of that's being sucked up by the Feds and other LE.

I agree. Perspective is a great thing.

Anyone seeing ammo prices slowly returning to something approximating “decent”? In particular, has anyone seen any Wolf 300BLK in the wild?

Not an especially good price, but I just received a back in stock email for Wolf 147 grain 300BLK.

Grey Ghost Gear has a one day sale On their Griff Pack.

I’ve had the Griff for about 18 months and it is the best everyday pack I have found. Construction seems on par with LBT 3Day packs but more refined organization, lots of Velcro loop fields inside and plain outside.

Thanks, that is the first place I think I've seen selling it. Sadly, that price isn't anywhere near what it was allegedly going to be selling for.

How does 90c/round for IMI Razorcore Mk 262 from Midway (plus shipping) or 1.04/rd on Speer 24445SP 62gr Gold Dots or 1.35 per on Federal XM556FBIT3/SBCT3 from Bone Frog (with shipping) sound in current climate? Right now greentip seems to be running about 70c/rd, which last year is where I seem to recall Mk 262 being.

I'd say excellent for the 77gr at the moment. Had I not been tracking down consumables today I'd probably grab a case.
