Default Cheap 223 Ammo on sale - 28.5 cents/round with rebate

Cabelas Boxing Week Sale has American Eagle 223 100rd boxes for 34.99 plus there is an $5.00 rebate in US funds. Works out to be 28.5 cents/round after rebate.

My reloading cost with free brass is 25 cents/round.

Speaking of bulk ammo deals, I just grabbed 500 rounds of Winchester white box 115 grain 9mm for $125 marked down from $150 at Bass Pro.

That is a pretty good price. Good ammo for plinking at the range.

I gotta know how you're down to 25 cents a round. I'm sitting around. 40

Edit: cancel that I was looking at my 22.250 costs not .223.

Campro 55gr should get you here. Bulk powder and cheap primers.

I went to get some of the .223 the OP mentioned today and the shelf was empty so I asked an employee if they had any left, he noted one customer came in and swept the entirety of what was available into a cart. Sure was nice of them to share......

Opps... sorry about that, it was probably me. In my defense, it was only 12 boxes left. I'll share with you, pm me Caber.

I see there is stock in Edmonton South. If someone happens to be there I will take whatever stock they have, you keep the rebate. PM me.

Thanks kindly for the offer but I think I have a line on some. By the staffers description it sounded like someone took a bit more than your description but perhaps he was embellishing a little? I guess it depends on the quantity of what was put out in the first place.

Merry Christmas

The American Eagle .223 is back at the Calgary location, but it's on a temporary display shelf near the transition from the gun counter to the knife displays rather than in its little spot on the shelf
