Title: Tips on finding cheap, good ammo
Post by: toothfangclaw on August 26, 2022, 09:59:19 AM: My gun is a 9mm. What are some tips on finding cheap target-grade ammo? Is the best place online? Are bulk group buys still a thing?

I am just newish to this and this ain't cheap. :chuckle:

Post by: Weaklink on August 26, 2022, 11:34:41 AM: I have been using Freedom Munitions for the past year for my .223/.40/.380/9mm bulk ammo. I buy the house brand and 50% of the time I buy their remanufactured (reloads). Can't tell the difference from new factory. Have not have one dud cartridge yet. Very pleased. Made in Idaho.

Do whatever it takes to keep people from figuring out how you obtained your ~~wealth~~... I mean ammo. Use misdirection and lie about where it came from. Accuse others of buying cheap ammo at places they didn't buy it from. Say the other guys been buying it from you and you don't actually have any cheap ammo. Tell people about a place that doesn't actually have cheap ammo so they won't go looking where you got your cheap ammo... In the end just lie and hoard it and don't tell anyone the truth. That's how it's done.

Post by: LDennis24 on August 26, 2022, 11:49:16 AM: Dang it, forgot to answer the actual inquiry. I buy bulk target grade online like most do but I avoid any of the coated ammo. It just gets your gun dirtier quicker. Avoid steel casings as well. Anything else is practically the same for target loads.

That's where I have been getting most of my ammo. The cheapest 9mm they seem to have is $20/50rnd bx.
