It's not the cleanest, most accurate, consistent ammo out there by any means, but it's the best price I've seen on Brass Case .223 ammo in a while. This is the price that most cruddy steel case .223 goes for.

I'm going to order a few up myself tomorrow(Pay Day)..

Decent price, but sure not the best I have seen. Plenty of choices online for around .45¢ per round and my LGS has Scorpio for $9.99/20 everyday.

What's really sad, in my mind, is that we have arrived at the point where we are happy to see one of the most common cartridges out there at this price point. Economy of scale should work in our favor.

Awesome to know it is consistently available at that price in some places.....

I'm in shock when I go get some locally here in N GA and the prices run .60 cents a round to like .85 cents a round for brass case ammo...I refuse to stuff steel case into any of my hole-making tools..

I suspect under the premise of regional conflicts and war that the USA is directly or indirectly involved in, that there may be some ongoing price gouging occurring due to the high cost of brass itself..

I’ve been buying PMC X-TAC for $9.99/box for over a year now. Can be found at various online ammo sites. Clean and reliable. 55 gr or 62 gr fmj or green tip. After Winchester ammo problems for nearly ten years (white box, pistol), I’ll not waste my money on it or risk my safety. Sorry to be a downer about it.
