    It is $119 for 500 rounds of .223 - What kind of .223 is it?

    If I had to guess I would say Tulammo. Anyone know for sure?

    I saw the same thing at the Abingdon Walmart and got the clerk to pull it out so I could look at it. It IS Tulla steel cased.

    Ok I checked and it is a lot cheaper buying it in larger quantity. I shoot a lot of Tulammo, all my ARs eat it up.

    Guess there is a tin for me!

    So I picked up a tin, believing it was a good deal, but without running the numbers.

    Soooo.......

    Gunbot shows Tulammo at .22 cents a round as their lowest price. That is before shipping. Lets assume $20 shipping for a tin. That comes to .24 cents a round.

    The Walmart price is .25 a round. Considering .22 is the cheapest, you could argue that even a bit more is probably the "right" price.

    I would say this is a pretty good deal, if your AR eats steel. Mine does. Happy to now have 500 more rounds, and not having to wait for shipping.

    Edit - It comes with an opener!!!!!
