Whats .223 ammo going for and where can you get some ?

I have been picking it up at wal mart for .38/rd including tax. That is the for the 100 per pack federals. The american eagles are running .40/rd in boxes of 20. Tulammo is about 11.50 per box of 20.

Wal mart is getting the stuff in, timing is everything.

Exactly. I don't shoot the Tulammo but the Wal-marts in Tupelo are selling it for right under $6 a box. As for any of the ammo you have to be there at the right time and you can only buy 3 boxes at a time here. There are still a lot of tool sheds out there buying it up and trying to make a 100% or better profit. You can still buy it all day long in bulk on the internet for $1 per round which is ridiculous. I bought a rifle at Grenada Gold and Gun on Saturday. They had pmags for $80 a piece and aluminum mags for $40 a piece!! And the .223 ammo was $150 for 200 rounds!! Naturally I passed on any of that.

6 bucks a box

Those weren't his inflated prices......his prices are that way on a normal basis. It only took me one trip in that store many years ago to learn
it's not for me.

that is right on the tulammo. I was wrong in my previous post. I bought 2 boxes for just under $12.00. I do not shoot the steel cases either but figured I would buy it for some who does or trade it.

outside of Mississippi Auto Arms and wal mart, everyone else has been gouging the heck out of folks.

and remember those who gouge. This won't last much longer.
