"Cheap" 300 blackout?

Define "cheap" and "reasonable". Those are opinion based adjectives.

Most I've seen is around $1/round at a minimum but that's par for the course these days. If you're looking to get 300blk for the cost of 223rem or 5.56nato you are probably dreaming.
 
We just received a large shipment of Remington 120gr OTFB ammo, the retail price is currently $21/20rd box. I think that is pretty much as good as it gets, as the Remington ammo has been the cheapest over the past couple years.
 
is that the UMC 120gr? I'd like to know shipping to H7T0C5 for say 10 boxes if you please :)

If you want CHEAP rounds you should have gone with .223

I enjoy plinking with 300blk a whole lot, more than 223 seriously so I need some cheap stuff till I start reloading it.

I got my boxful of UMC 120gr and these look amazing, much cleener than the Accutip 125gr I got for twice the price the week before... I've red somewhere these new UMC where Barnes made, maybe that's why.

I to love this caliber, very accurate and a pleasure to shoot.
I gave up trying to find "cheap" ammo and just saved my money for reloading components. Depending the projectile I am at $35-40 per 100 rounds.
Basically a little better than half the cost of commercial ammo.

Keep an eye out for projectiles that are on sale as this will be the major cost.

My pet load is...
150 grain Hornady FMJ/BT #3037
14.7 grains of H-110
Small rifle Primer CCI
O.A.L. 2.220"
And lastly crimped with a lee factory crimp die
It's a very clean burning load as well.

Edit: Oops thought I was in the reloading forum.... sorry
