Midway IMI 62 grain 556 1200 rounds for $299

Twenty six cents a round for factory brass-cased 5.56 is a good deal.
That was the point of the OP posting this.

This isn't that great of a deal imho

Maybe you can start your own thread about how economical it is to take up reloading.
 
I mean let's look at some things.
Brass can be shot at least 8 times so that initial cost needs to be spread out.

You can buy 1k bullets for plinking at .08 each

7000 grains per pound. My loads are 27.0 grain. Cfe223 powder is 20$ which is .08 (.076 I rounded up) a shot.

Primers are 36$/1000 so .04 a shot

Brass 10$/500 but upward of 8 shots. So we'll leave it out as you can get it from factory ammo

So, 20 cents a shot. But you can cut that down with smaller powder charges.

And you can get .5 or less inch groups at 100 yards. And what price can you put on not worrying about ammo shortages? With better bullets ECT.

I'm the guy that shows up and says I can shoot .5" groups with loose stuff in an ammo can and shoot 500-1000 rounds all day while others come and go with way more $$ in ammo with crappier results.

Not hijacking nor trolling. You can buy ss109 bullets. You can do what ever. Sorry for having an opinion. I don't have to stay since I'm from Indiana.

For those of us that work five or more days a week, 60 or more hours a week. Have a house a yard and a life, $300 for 1200 rounds is a damn good deal. If you don't like it don't order it. It's that simple. Go crap in your own yard.
I really miss Kimchee. He was a good guy from Indiana not a arrogant a$$.
