Most you would Pay for 22lr ammo?

[slogoat]

I just bought a Fed. 525 Bulk Box from Cabela's for $23 (0.04¢ per rnd)
and a couple days later a 500 Blazer Brick for $26 (0.05¢ per rnd),
that I got in the mail yesterday.



I won't go any higher than that,
unless it NEVER comes back down to it.

I got the same brick in from cabelas yesterday. (Blazer)

 

[john17427]

Cabelas in Gonzales had 50 round boxes of Blazer tonight for $3, limit two.

 

[Ferrara Fire]

I have blazer on the shelf... but it runs best through my Open bolt 10/22... what to do, what to do...

 

[doc ace]

Metric **** ton of aguila copper plated hollowpoint, sub sonic, and round nose at Ambassador Academy today. 2 box limit 4.99 per 50

 

[dantheman]

I have paid as much as 10 cents per round but that was back when my stash had gotten REAL low . I'm back up to a comfortable level now and I'm not really buying any unless it's a super good deal .

 

[highstandard40]

I'd be happy to pay 12 cents per round.........if I could find the exact brand I need.

 

[madwabbit]

anything more than 6 cents a round and I smirk and walk away.

seriously guys I don't get why anyone is buying this, at all.

1) many other pistol calibers are cheaper, plink with that.
2) rifle ammo is cheap as hell right now- just sayin.
3) contrary to what doomsday preppers states, you don't NEED 500,000 rounds under your guest bed. If you're actually shooting and replenishing your stock- WHY ARE YOU SHOOTING THIS?

I know we all need "more ammo" but you're probably contributing to the problem more than you realize.

If you are concerned with shooting small game for survival after the chinese zombies invade during social collapse from the superaids outbreak, then get yourself a decent pellet rifle. cheap rounds- much quieter, same result.

Exactly where can we find these many other pistol cartridges for .06 or less a round as you stated? Last I checked on 9mm and .38 special ammo it's running about .40 per round and up. Can't recall ever seeing any of the common loads for $4 -$6 per 50 rounds.

He didn't say you could get other pistol cartridges for under .06/rd.

Some folks are paying > .30/rd for 22lr. You can find other cartridges for cheaper than that.

That's right; that's RIGHT!

Brass cased 9mm is around $.30 a round, .40 around $.40 We have .22lr between $.07-$.16 depending on the box size and round. Some of the match ammo is up there in price, same way with some of the specialty 9mm loads, some subsonic loads sell for $.50 a round, I try to point out that the 147g stuff that is cheap is subsonic but some people insist on buying that black box that says suppressor ammo on it?!?!?

 

[340six]

I like when guys toss out 9mm at $0.06 a round price. Now way no how.
Not factory stuff only way I is like i do.
Dad gave me a free Keg of Red Dot, Have a ton of brass already, and have primers i got long ago fir 20 bucks a 1000.
And the bullets are cast with WW lead i get free from a friends tires shop or bought at 1.00-1.25 a pound and lube with Lars White Label Lube {Red Carnuba}
Takes me some time but the wife and kids and neighbor kids enjoyed shooting the 3rd Gen S&W's and 1911

I never really worried about the 22lr being shot. I would just bust open a box of bulk and let them enjoy them self. It has been quite some time.
But I had a guy want to buy a bulk box from me and I said no and then let the kids blast it out the MK2 Ruger, Colt Ace and Sig 522. He thought I was an idiot for passing up 45-50 bucks and letting them just blow it.
If you went to the movies what would it cost more than that and I paid cheap for it. So the loss of not selling it was worth the $$ lost in entertainment

There are plenty times I've seen .22 ammo available through Cabela's, Gander Mountain, Bass Pro for .04 to .10 a round. I've bought it as high as .08 per round and that was for copper coated HP's in a 100 pk. Still, at .10 a round for .22 you are way cheaper than any commercially available center fire cartridge. At that price I can pick up 150 rounds for $15 vs. 50 of a center fire round.

Yes, there are some folks out there paying .30 plus per round but most of us are not in that group. I picked up some 525 Winchester at Gander Mountain in Houston the last time I passed through for $19.99. That's .038 per round. I paid .02 for some I picked up over 10 years ago. Not much of an increase. I've bought some through Cabela's before it even was listed on Gunbot.

If someone is in dire need of some just do a little research and you can find it for .06 very ofter. Call Bass Pro on Friday mornings as this seems to be when they put it out. They had some last Sunday. Cabela's had that large stash I posted the other day.

#1 and WIDENING the GAP!

Well now if it were 5,000 rounds of THUNDERBOLTS.....the sky's the LIMIT:}

Its got to be a age or generation thing. I just paid 10 per 100 for CCI and really didn't have a problem with it. I never saw the golden age of cheap ammo. This is kinda the prices I'm used to so it didn't hurt to bad.

You're talking apples and oranges. CCI is premium 22LR ammo. We are talking about econo size 550 round bricks of plinking 22LR, not small amounts of the "good stuff".
