Haven't seen any great prices on bulk ammo yet, lowest prices for .22lLR, .223, 9mm?

I did hear this from a distributor with more than half a brain. Not all overseas freight companies ship ammunition. The ones that do follow certain routes. It's highly unlikely they will change their established routes for 1 container of ammo. We're not that special.
Correct, retailers work on roughly a 20% margin give or take, contrary to some people on this forum that think it's closer to 200%
Thanks. I snagged 2000 rounds. That’s a great price for softpoint. I wonder how accurate this stuff is. I was getting 1 inch in PRVI 7mm08.
No surprise this sold out this fast. The per box unit price has not been seen this low for years...and for soft points at that! I had to do a double take when I first saw this, thinking it must be a typo...but it is probably the best deal in years on any .223. Hopefully this is indicative and is a harbinger of ammo prices falling across the board going forward.
I have used these in the past and the soft points have always been great, and I have been told by reloaders that the brass is very good for reloading. I have had some issues with certain years of the FMJ PPUs (punctured primers) - not sure if it was the primer or the gun I used at the time, but I have had zero problems with the softpoints of varying years.
They only had 20 cases for sale when i seen it. Never tried ppu .223 sp before but the reviews showed rapid expansion. Grabbed a case to try out as a varmint round. At 58cents / round all in delivered to BC i couldn't pass it up. I browse ammo prices regularly and have scored some great deals as of late. .270 deer season xp for under $1/ round , 40s&w for 26cents/ round and 38 special for 28cents/ round. Hard to want to reload for those prices if your guns shoot the ammo good.
The PPU ammo is loaded very hot and should really put a smack down on prairie dogs. I am considering shooting an antlerless deer at 75 m with one to see how it performs. I could care less about the FBI 12 inch test when hunting. It looked like that round had total energy dump at the 11 inch mark. For prices below lousy ball ammo, I will give it a go.
Tenda cancelled my order and gave me a refund today. Said some of the PPU ammo was damaged or something. Anyone else get that email? Trying to see if they will raincheck till they get more. Had a similiar thing happen to a ordrr from Bullseye and they went above and beyond to make the customer happy.
Yep, they also had a deal on 5.56, 1000 rounds bulk.
And segue into, How do you guys store 1000 or more loose rounds of 5.56 NATO?
