Remington UMC range ammo *price alert* Login/Join

I dropped by Academy Sports & Outdoors yesterday, saw this deal they having going, and thought other SF members would be interested.

Academy and Remington have a combined Black Friday week promo going on Remington UMC FMJ range ammo.

$69.99 - 9mm 115gr Range Bucket - 350 rds
$69.99 - .45 ACP 230gr Range Bucket - 200 rds
$89.99 - .40 S&W 180gr Range Bucket - 300 rds

Those are some pretty good prices, but on top of that, Remington has a mail-in rebate going for pistol ammo range buckets purchased between 11/19-11/27 for additional $30 off.

For 9mm, after rebate, that comes out to a little under 11.5c/rd. I haven't seen prices like that since 2007. They have a deal on 500 rd .380 buckets too, but I don't remember the price. Academy limits customers to three buckets per day. Remington limits its ammo rebate to three per customer.

I'm reluctant to use Remmy UMC ammo due to negative reviews on SF and other sites; nonetheless, I thought other SF members would jump on it.

Rem UMC is nasty!

Academy ships, but they are 'Out of Stock Online' on all UMC Range Buckets. If you go to an Academy, and they don't have the bucket you're looking for, you can ask an employee (usually a dept lead or someone who understands the computer system) to perform a chain-wide inventory search to see what other nearby locations are reporting as in-stock.

If you scroll to the bottom of this list, Remmy lists specific Order No./SKU and UPC info for each bucket.

Link to various Rem ammo and firearm rebates. The Range Bucket rebate is the first one.

Promo Code 76946

If you don't have Academy in your area but do have Cabela's, Cabela's is running a similar 'Doorbuster' deal, but it's in-store only and only on Fri 24 Nov from 500-1000am.

9mm range ammo is currently regularly priced at under .10 a round at any of the major online ammo retailers -- has been for several months.

Just sayin'

UMC works fine. Just very dirty and smells bad. If you're someone who cleans every range trip, it's good to go.

There's an entire sub-forum dedicated to where to find deals on ammo:

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

No, it's priced under $0.20 per round. $0.10/round would be $100 per case of 1,000.

Cabela's appears to be running the same deal on Black Friday.

Bought 2,000 to max out rebate. As mentioned above, shoots dirty, but shoots every time, so far about half way through it.

I haven't bought ammo in years (buy it cheap stack it deep) but I've been shooting through my 9mm stash and was excited to see this thread.

I don't have an Academy Sports near me but Dick's price matches them so I went down there today and picked up 3 buckets of 9mm (their price was 94.99 but they matched Academy at 69.99 per bucket with no hassle at all). I've already mailed off the rebates so I'll have $90 coming back to me. All said and done with tax that's less than $6.40 per 50 rounds and a pretty sweet deal! Iron Chef thank you!

I'd not been there, either. Just went and checked out 7.62x51 Malaysian 1980 and decided to order 1080 rounds from Ammo to Go. (Of course, I'm hoping it is flashy!)

I’m usually too lazy to send in mail in rebates
