Target Sports Delivering Again - Megathread

I’ve been out of the ammo search for a while. Any chance someone could clue me in on what 9mm target is going for these days, in the rare moments it actually becomes available?

Ammoseek has brass 9mm stable around 65-70 cpr, so anything less is good, anything under 50¢ is a steal and will be scooped up real fast.
Of course, plus 10¢ for Commieland 😢
 
Something to consider for all the STV that was bought up.

And another vid to confirm. Might be ammo best suited for your carbines and AR9’s with blowback design and/or bcg’s that can easily grab the case.

I actually had this issue with one round so far. In fact, the case was flared out at the bullet end, where you could actually catch your fingernail on it when running it over the length of the case from the primer end to the bullet end. The round got stuck pretty bad in the barrel of my Sig P210, and I was fortunate to have quick and easy access to a gunsmith who helped get it unstuck and who diagnosed the problem. Now, before I use any of that ammo, I'll do a drop test into the barrel of the gun I'll be shooting for every round to make sure none are too far out of spec.

I’m at 4 weeks with the 357 mag ammo from the CMP. Anyone have a CMP order ship recently? Curious how many more weeks I got.

If that isn’t properly crimped, I sure as hell would NOT put that through a straight blowback AR9mm that doesn’t have a locking bolt. Those rounds can fire out of battery if they do not seat in the chamber while the bolt closes. Ask me how I know.

I’m just about at 6 weeks on some .38 speacil placed on 12/30. Still processing. I have maybe 7 other orders I placed after that haven’t shipped either.

Placed my order last week; no email or CC charge yet...I’m not liking my odds here...

Target Sports had Belom 9mm 124gr FMJ for $0.55/rd and it took a while to sell out. Usually by the time I get the notification it's gone.

I’m thinking that if there was stock when ordered yours is set aside for when they get to shipping for your order. At least that’s my thought/hope. I have an order that is three weeks old so know I got time to wait. One caliber in my order is now out of stock and it still says processing.
