Ammoholics Anonymous Roll Call
Anyone bought anything? I picked up some 30/30 ammo and some 9mm. Got to get some 30 carbine next.

Thanks for the cut

FWIW, I have it on good authority that 900 5.56 rounds fit in a 30 cal ammo can if they are layered in rows, alternating direction.

I'm hoping for a fall in prices, or not. If they drop, my FedEx/UPS guy will be cursing me again. VISA and MC will be sending me thank you notes.

I just got in on the returned Golden Tiger .223 with the hard primers from SG Ammo. Yes, you'll need an enhanced firing pin and possibly a stronger hammer spring, but at 17ยข a round those modifications are worthwhile.

I just got some 45acp in today to break in a pistol caliber carbine. I can't hardly wait to get to the range!

I'm in the process of moving right now. Just around the corner, but still. Have to drag it up and down basement stairs.

I'm cursing this disease like never before.

I feel your pain. I moved from a 3rd story apartment--where I stayed for three years accumulating ammunition--into a house just down the street. That was painful even with a handtruck. I spread it out over three days to avoid any injuries. Luckily--crossed my fingers--I'm in my beautiful forever home.

SG Ammo sent me a note. Another 2k rounds of various calibers inbound. I will use up about 100 rounds of 7.62 NATO this weekend so all is well with the world!

I have been able to resist SGAmmo, Palmetto & Targetsports so far. But I notice I am looking more and more. I have plenty of ammo, but damn I keep looking and wanting to buy. I get the whole hoarding thing now. Used to be like damn, now I am like damn, ohhh. Big Grin



It's all about clean living. Just do the right thing, and karma will help with the rest.

some of these black friday prices look pretty tempting. SG Ammo moreso than PSA but that's not too unusual.

I also got that SGA email this morning!

That's their regular price for that particular type packaging. The cartridges are stacked touching one inside each box of 20, kind of like IMI does.
It's a good price and space saver.

I am half tempted to buy a case but I ended up getting it from Target Sports USA a couple of weeks ago.

I truly appreciate that this thread really took off and it has given me great enjoyment the last couple months.

Yes please sir. It has been quite the fun ride. I need to go find more storage space now...

Argh! I hate to let go on the M193 for $329.

I've been looking at SGammo's web site. Need some 30 carbine ammo. Is there a brand I should stay away from. Has anyone had a bad experience with a brand not cycling in military carbines?

Congratulations on the CUTs!

Now, if that next shipment of Sellier & Bellot would just make it in to my favorite enabler's warehouse...

I picked up a case of UMC due to the $5 per box rebate today. (Mentioned in another Black Friday thread.)

Hard to turn down a case of 9mm for $113 after rebate. I just hope my rebate form doesn't get lost in the mail.
