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

I just get the Princess 50-cal when they're $10 or so. I don't have an issue re humidity and only stack 5-6 high
The Magnum polymer 50 cal ones are quite good. They can handle a lot of weight, are lockable, and they do stack to a degree. I have bought the metal ones there too, but I don't like how easily the lid keeps coming off the hinges, and they are not lockable, so kind of a bummer.
In both the 30s and the 50s I drill a larger hole in one corner of the lip to allow a Large 'Keyed alike' Padlock (ca 4@$30/8@$50 - princess) even cheaper on 'Sale'. I've got 20 or so now (and a s-load of keys). I number the keys and locks with an engraver to ID each. And in a real emergency "every lock is a nail"
I also buy the amazon combi-trigger locks @ 5 for $43.
PS - RE ammo prices, I've found those Blazers and Champions are HV and Not very accurate for targets.

I ordered some CCI Target SV .22LR 500 rounds for a very good price of $55/box. It's a bulk package, so will see if it performs as well as the plastic box stuff

A few things about that ammo. 1) made in brazil 2) never saw it b4 3) I searched and find that the SV comes in 2-grades -22B comes in 500 boxes or bottles (like SK Magazine) and 22B Precision, which comes in 50/boxes. On the Magtech website there's lots of info. The pic at Tenda shows 50/bx but the box doesn't 'say' Precision so I'd Talk to someone @ Tenda to determine what it actually is. It may be "Old stock" if its in 50s, unless pkg says Precision.
Also, the SV is rated 1150 - a bit high for my taste in target ammo @ 10c+ / round ( tax. incl ) At least it'll get the Free Shpg.
Anyone shooting this for accuracy or just cans ?

I've never shot the .22LR version before, but I have shot tons of 9mm Magtech (not to be confused with Maxxtech which is terrible). I have not had a single problem with any of my Magtech 9mm rounds, so based on my limited sample size, I'd be willing to give the 22LR rounds a chance. Magtech I believe, despite the Brazillian source, is owned by Sellier and Bellot, if memory serves me right.
Personally, I am buying it for plinking at the range only, and have no illusions of this being any more than fun target ammo.
