check out the "value pack" of ultramax reloads at DSG if you'd like to have your mind blown... those have been higher than $1/round for a long time. [sad2]

Service with a smile.

FS has now eclipsed Blue Northern on the WTF ammo price scale.

People,give your business to Rileys if you want .308,that is just plain insane.

 

[M1911]

How much is .308 at Riley's?

 

[Hiltonizer]

I don't shoot it, so i don't remember exactly... but I'm pretty sure NSF in Middleton has 20rd boxes in the $15 range.

 

[Jason]

Still $0.66 a round in NH

I think it's like 4 bills or so for 500 rounds or something like that. So they're less, but not by that much... I think that's for factory fresh Privi, too.

I just came from Riley's. .308 was $335 for 500 rounds. .67 a round.

Widener's has Prvi at $129/200 round battle pack. Pretty high, but at least it's not $1/round.

Thanks for the correction. Not sure why but I had high $300s on the mind.

Yeah, that's a hell of a lot better than what it goes for down here. There are still some jerkwad shops selling SA battlepacks for stupid amounts of money on them... and in some cases they have dust on them, which means they probably got them when they were $22 a pop.

WWB rifle ammo is always overpriced.

How much was .308/round before this ammo craze?

For the longest time, you could get Port surplus 7.62x51 from AIM Surplus at $139/1K. There were occasional periods where you could get it at $99/1K in the 2001-02 timeframe.

Meh...

There's still deals to be had if you know where to look around

Nice try

I know how everyone just loves four seasons but I can't remember the last time I bought anything there that was a deal. They were one of the first to increase the price of 7.62 x39 for almost 2 months Collectors was selling the same ammo for about $2 less per box of 20. I'm sure I'll probably get flamed for saying this based on the raving reviews that this place gets but seriously has anyone purchased anything at that place that you could not find for less someplace else. The last good deal I found there had to be 3 years ago and it was a Nagant that they must of had 50 of.

 

[PantherarmsAR10]

yea the last time I bought some at Rileys it was like $16.50 for 20 rounds for the privi.. I got lucky last year and pick up some LC xm118lr for like $14 for 20 rounds, love that stuff and still have some.

FS ammo prices have never been particularly good. However, they have good prices on many firearms.

 

[DukeInFlorida]

I make mine for < .20 a round!

You need to shop if you have a target price, If it is just something you want you will pay who ever has one.

You're not kidding. I unpacked a case yesterday and said: "Cool - .308 - in quantity!" The I canned the price. $79.99 for 60 rounds of 168gr "match" reloads. I have no idea what they are using for bullets, but the brass appears to be military...In any case, I loaded it in the display case and walked away...

Pretty good! I'm making .30-06 for < .24 a round and I thought that was good.

 

[sportycliff]

Competition Shooting Supplies still has/gets Privi Match 175 or 168g for under $19.00 box...right on the MA RI line in Pawtucket...
