Searched for this already, couldn't find an answer, but if one exists, sorry for the dupe thread...
Just wondering if there is such a thing as an ammo group buy. Been looking at some sites like bulkammo.com and luckygunner.com and it seems as though the lowest price per round (for .40 S&W) I'm seeing for a 1000 round bulk pack is $.46. Right now I'm paying roughly $.36/round when I buy boxes of 50. Obviously the trick is to find a store willing to sell me 20 boxes at once, but assume I did, it saves me $100. Defeats the supposed value of buying in bulk.
Would it be feasible to approach say, Winchester, and settle on a price/thousand so long as we had a minimum number of people in for that caliber? Forget the logistics of the buy for now, are ammo group buys even possible? If they've been done before was it worth it, both from a cost and effort perspective?
