Does anyone have a good source for .223 / 5.56mm FMJ ammo? I'm low after the July 4th extravaganza and there isn't another gun show until early August.
I heard that Walmart's prices went up a few bucks per box, and most of what I'm seeing online is priced higher than I remember too. I'm seeing online places selling 500 rounds of Wolf for $89.99... that's 18 cents a piece, for Wolf! WTF!? All the brass stuff seems to be getting closer to 30 cents per round now too. What happened to the days of Winchester .223 FMJ's for 20 cents a pop?
I guess you better invest in a reloader eh?

Fuck that collecting brass is for suckas.... You have a gun go hold up a store for the rounds you need
You should just charge all the moochers who went without guns.

I'm thinking about getting some of this... http://www.sportsmansguide.com/cb/cb.asp?a=131546
At 13 cents per round, it's the best price on modern-style Wolf that I've seen lately.
