349$ plus tax.

Is this a decent deal?
>>
>>34104485
the price is ok if you want 62 grain green tip. its not if you want bulk 5.56 ammo
>>
>>34104485
For a thousand rounds it isn't too bad
M866 is something of a meme round though
>>
>>34104508
All intermediate cartridges are meme rounds though, anon.
>>
>>34104508

True. 500yrds penetration of 10 guage carbon steel is not bad tho. Id just keep it for shtf mode

>>34104502
Thats kinda what i was thinking. Never had any 556 nato. Just been plinking the cheapest brass fmj walmart has.
>>
>buying dogshit M855 for 35 cents a pop
Lol
>>
>>34104539
M855 is the memest of memes though
Trying to turn 5.56 into a barrier penetrator when the one thing its absolutely shit at is barrier penetration
>>
>>34104485
you can sometimes find 1000 rounds of lake city 62 grain green tip for $300 + s/h. psa has 2 cans of m855 on stripper clips for $320 and free shipping.
>>
>>34104558
If the proles want to pay more for a shit round, that leaves more of the cheaper stuff that's better in every way for people who aren't retarded.
>>
>>34104672
Thank you sir

>>34104558
>Wishing I could buy surplus for $0.35/round here in Australia.
>>
>>34104840
If you exchange it to US bux, it's pretty much what we pay for the bulk PMC stuff
>>
>>34104485
There's no reason to buy m855
Want to plink? Get cheap Russian shit.
Want to shoot groups? Get $$$$ black hills etc.
Want shtf? Get m193 or mk318.
>>
>>34105128
>M193
No.
>Mk318
Yes.
For a combat load M855 is gtg.

Honestly this, but maybe not the cheap Russian stuff, maybe PMC or Wolf Gold if it ever goes on sale.

I can't justify shooting paper with green tips and the same idea for shooting steel. Friend of mine last trip failed to mentioin he had shot my brand new steel silhouette with 200 rounds of green tip
>>
>>34104689
I'm new to ARs, all I know is that Wolf is under powdered shit yet all companies seem to be overgassing their rifles around that shit loading.
>>
Just buy and shoot what you can afford people...stop acting dumb as all hell. I bet 75% of people posting here own 0 guns. It's fact...you all know it.

>>34105789
Actually most people only one 1 or 2 guns and it makes them feel qualified to talk about all guns
>>
>>34105789
It's not a matter of if you can afford it but what is worth your money, Steel case Wolf is cheap as biscuits but it's shitty enough to make actually training with it past 100 yards a fools errand
>>
I remember paying $80 per 500 rd can of 5.56 from midway once....it was a day of legend
>>
>>34105953
that was probably around the same time when gas broke $2.
>>
>>34105971
it was actually just a few months ago

don't worry, they cancelled everyone's orders

But we did sell out their entire stock of American Eagle 5.56 and .223 in hours lol

This is a fact.
>>
>>34105843
Agreed...all I'm saying is ammo is ammo...if it goes bang and comes out the barrel...shoot it and have fun!
>>
>>34105224
Tula sells 75gr for a little more than regular steel cased.
>>
>>34106073
Fun is for people with money, if you are poor spending 3 CPR more for PMC is going to make you a better shooter if you practice with purpose, making a lot of noise and hitting steel at 25 yards is fun but not really honing your skills.
>>
>>34105128
>M193

Enjoy your 4 MOA rounds that keyhole past 200yds.
>>
>>34106138
Well if we weren't sure you knew dick about ammo we sure as fuck do now.
>>
>>34105185
soooo people SHOULD be getting the green tip round that's less accurate, has worse terminal ballistics, worse penetration etc etc?what's your excuse for saying M193 is a bad round?
>>
>>34105161
>>34105185
what's wrong with M193?
>>
What would you guys recommend for cheap bulk 5.56? It's going in my M&P so I don't care if it's nice as long as it cycles
