    .223 according to gunbot, the cheapest online is 26 cents a round for a thousand rounds at 259.90 plus 16.00 shipping coming to 275.00 shipped equals 27.5 cents a round not counting delivery confirmation.

    walmart carrys tulammo at 5.40 with tax per box of 20 coming to 27 cents per round

    so you pay an extra 5.00 to get it sent to your house, but that deal only works if you buy in big bulk. Wal mart's deal works the same per box.

    A lot of places are now offering free shipping for large orders. And really, if you aren’t buying at least 500 rounds at a time what’s the point?

    I have found that buying a couple boxes a week, every week, really adds up. I mostly shoot tula, so I am able to get alot of bullets for cheap withoutfeeling the sting of a huge purchase.

    I wouldn't call 30c a round with a 72k round minimum to be much of a deal.

    It's a little weird how M193 has been hovering at 33c a round for months. I would have expected to see more downward pressure by now - it doesn't look like it's selling THAT much.

    agreed on the 30c a round for 72k rounds. having m193 regularly available for 33c/r will keep me buying it as needed without complaints.

    I'm going to guess, you were at the Fallston Walmart, on Bel Air Rd, the guy was an older guy, probably in his 50's, darkish hair.

    He was spewing this a while back, my brother was all like wtf, I just gave him the let it be look.

    Walmart has a new upsell tactic. They tell you that the item will be banned soon, so you better buy it.


    At least, that's what a guy at walmart told me.
