    Fair points all around. That was cheaper than most 193 so my initial comment is off base - I don't math.

    But, true as well that 855A1 has been in use down range for many years.

    You’re welcome for my cervix, ATF.



    Daily reminder, our infantry boys are still effectively stacking bodies with ol’ M855.

    10 ten cases came today. I caught the UPS driver just after he finished stacking them up next to my garage. He said "Those boxes are heavy."

    I got it done. It took me a little over an hour to scan the receipt, take the 30 pictures required and upload everything to their redemption website. The good thing is that I didn't have to cut the UPC's off, so everything in its original packaging.

    Preach brother. Cutting the upc's off 100 boxes sucked. Welcome to the 21st century rebate.
    AQ planned for years and sent their A team to carry out the attacks, and on Flight 93 they were thwarted by a pick-up team made up of United Frequent Fliers. Many people look at 9/11 and wonder how we can stop an enemy like that. I look at FL93 and wonder, "How can we lose?". -- FromMyColdDeadHand

    How many of you are willing to stock 5k+ rounds of M855A1 or MK318 or any of those high speed SOF issued OTM stuff?

    I’ll wait.
    Since you asked... People want results at range or on...."not paper" will pay for the good stuff.



    It's stacked bodies because that's what they've got/had. 45-70 stacked a lot of bodies too...

    Hah! You should have seen the woman at the post office when I picked up 4000 115 grain FMJ bullets in one flat-rate box! I could barely lift it myself.

    Try picking up 500 405gr .458 bullets.
    That’s about 29lbs. So I get it.

    Did that at 2 gun shows to pick up components for my .458 socom. I may do one more run of that to top off my supply at 1500....I’d call that a lifetime supply.

    The UPS store hates me when I order cases of ammo or bulk bullets.

    I don't shoot a lot of m855 because most of my shooting these days is on steel. But, decent quality cheap ammo is never a bad thing.
    The truth can only offend those who live a lie.

    I ordered three ar-500 steel targets- a 6” round target, 8” round and and a 8”x12” silhouette target. All three were shipped in one USPS flat rate cardboard envelope. My mailman was pissed. I found it laying on my front porch since my wife couldn’t get it up. I had to pry it off the porch floor with both hands.
