Case 2,700 rds 5.56 Ammo

[Redmaple]

This is a bargain, you should be able to get at least $2 round for this stuff.

I paid $345 for a 1,000 rounds of Federal FMJ boxer primed, 55g, reloadable brass just two years ago.

Some of the 5.56 ammo that the Canadian Forces used in Germany in the late 1980’s was berdan primed.

Interesting - was it from a NATO partner?

For those beotching about the price....this stuff these days is more geared probably to a collector that is looking to fill a portion of a collection, as opposed to banging away at your local club's gongs.
Where can you buy proper surplus 5.56 these days? pretty much nowhere.
That is my take anyhow, ymmv.

I bought a can of IVI ammunition from John recently. Was it 2 cents a round? No, but I happily paid the asking price as it is a unique item in Canada. Now the guys on the EE selling PMC 55gr for $750 a case are a different story for sure haha.

Sweet, good time to flip it in the EE.

It’s called severe price gouging...

Why didn't you buy some when it was cheap and plentiful?

Exactly when you can get .338 match Lapua for 4 dollars a round.

Hopefully, we can bid that up next. Better stock up.

It's a private sale and an uncommon item. What's your problem?

Looks like a bad case of FOMO.
