Bid on some in the GTA guns/gear auction. Thought I had it locked up at approx $225 (+18%comm+13%=$300) but bidding went right up to $350 base price. Sure as heck would not pay $466 for 1200rds of S&B surplus tho maybe that is the going rate with ORC going for 300-350 when it's night and day in quality from what I have had. I still have no Czech surplus but the Russian and Chinese will entertain me for years.
Why S&B at $359 is a better buy than PRC prices similar
- steel surplus stripper clips are SO much better than the 20 packs from Norinco of the same thing, norcs bend Czech clips just work better
- sometimes cleaner and more accurate
- on clips for convenience and you can easel the clips 120 clips at .25-.50 cents resale gives you a $40-$60 min return on this ammo
Main difference 300 trigger pulls, Still it's cheaper than. 223.
I'd say to be honest windfalls price is ban on for Oct 2017
