I recently bought from ammunitiontogo.com and sportsmansguide.com, the Russian Silver Bear stuff. I've used cheaperthandirt.com too. It takes about 10 days to get it they are so busy. You might look on Gunbroker.com too. NRA Life Member, Band of Bubbas Charter Member, PGCA, DRSS. Shoot & hunt with vintage classics. | |||

www.cheaperthandirt.com has Lake City 5.56 loose bulk for 899.00 (1000 rounds). It is current military ammo. NRA Life Member DSC Life Member Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves. Ronald Reagan | |||

Is that correct? $.89 apiece? Wow! I haven't bought any in a long time. I had no idea it had gotten that expensive. -------------------------------------------- Well, other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play? | |||

I've got 2 AR-15's in .223 but they're both target type rifles so I reload for them. A few months back I bought a S&W M4 style AR chambered in 5.45X39. It's a fantastic "plinking" rifle and I was able to get the ammo for $0.12 apiece. You might want to look into it. You could almost save enough on a 1000 rounds of ammo to pay cash for the rifle.

Makes you wonder if/when Iraq-Afghanistan ends, will there be a flood of surplus ammo that the gov. wants to get rid of via CMP and other resources... Regards, Robert ****************************** H4350! It stays crunchy in milk longer! | |||

I paid 185.00 + 15.00 shipping for PMC 500 round lots a month ago. I would agree that 5.45 is the way to go. 138.00 for 1080 rounds shipped. Start buying cases and the price drops. I bought a AK74 about 2.5 years ago, $249.00. Well over 500.00 now. I picked up a flat top side mount for $29.00 and a red dot for $69.00 on sale. Great plinker and 100 yard Coyote rifle. .223 AK mags fit, but only hold 4 which is fine for hunting. | |||

Forgive my ignorance but what is the difference between 5.45 and .223? And where did you find such deals? Thanks "When you play, play hard; when you work, don't play at all." Theodore Roosevelt | |||

5.45X39 is a Russian cartridge and will not work in a regular AR-15. Recently Bulgaria, a former Combloc nation has seen the light and converted over to our NATO 5.56X45 round. They have warehouses full of this 5.45X39 communist stuff and have been selling it to US distributors for the past few years. S&W saw a golden opportunity and has chambered an AR-15 that shoots this stuff. With the price of ammunition and "patriot" rifles skyrocketing I saw a golden opportunity and sold an AK-47 and small supply of 7.62X39 ammo and made enough to purchase one of those S&W M4 clones in 5.45X39 and 8640 rounds of ammo. I've found the ammo to be dirty but reasonably accurate. It has corrosive primers so you need to clean after you shoot. It's so fun just to go plinking and not worry about how much it's costing. I got mine for $.12 a piece! Terry  -------------------------------------------- Well, other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play? | |||

Your rifle is politically incorrect, TC. Probably why I like it and that you own it... That 5.45 stuff is deadly shit. It tumbles instantly upon impact, ripping the shit out of whatever soft tissue it hits. It's a very intelligently-designed round. Them Russkis can be pretty smart sometimes... | |||

Yeah, it has all the evil features. They don't even make a low capacity magazine for it  -------------------------------------------- Well, other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play? | |||

For good ammo to have around find some Winchester 55 gr ball or Federal 55 gr ball. Federal 62gr ball shoots good as well. If you want some soft point or hollow point ammo get some Black Hills ammo. DOUBLE RIFLE SHOOTERS SOCIETY | |||
