Anybody else buying cheap stacking deep

If you need 5.56 ammo maybe buy now as the word on the street is that Lake City Arsenal (Gov't run) will quit selling 5.56 Nato to the civilian market as a result of a couple of things going on across the pond. I've heard they supplied about 30% of their production to the civilian market. Reportedly prices have begun to rise on 5.56 Nato once again. Word to the wise....and fact check this info yourself as I only heard this recently.
 
Plussed up

Buying what I can, when
I see a decent deal. For the most part
my shooting is with my reloads

I too have Reloads and of course .22 long rifle.

Recently found the scare 300 Winchester Short
Magnum now I’m plussed up 100.

The other day I also found 2 bags of 41
Remington Magnum.
I left the other bag, 100rds. will do me for
now (with the anticipation of a new S&W 657
Mountain Gun).

So I’m stacking when I find it at a reasonable
price.

Purchased lots of 30-06 and 30 Carbine this year, plus some 300 Blackout. I have never stopped stocking up on ammo when I find a good price.

I'm always on the hunt.
 
After nearly a week, SGAmmo sent me an email blast. Cases only, limited selection, and 5-10 days shipping. Heaviest orders he's seen in many years. He still has some Lake City 223, some IMI selections, and seemingly a good selection of 9mm, .380, and 22LR. 6.5 and 7.62 available, also.
 
Another thing to keep in mind, we are entering the presidential election season and I anticipate there being another run on ammo/guns as the election nears, if people have enough income to spare. I suspect there is going to be real fear of the election results (the fix will be in) and any new "rules" that will be coming.


The run already started. My buddy’s shop sales went up like crazy this weekend on ammo and bs AR15 that weren’t moving before. Gonna be a fun one.
 
Update today - six weeks after OP pharmer,
WM5199 Federal Champion 9mm Luger Ammo 115 Grain Full Metal Jacket-Case of 1000 (20 Boxes of 50) - Free Shipping - Now (2 boxes of 500 bulk), and from OP's $217.56 to 244.99. I bought it anyhow.
 
More

Still stacking. One of my favorite Local Gun
Stores had Hornady 300 Winchester Short
Magnum reloading brass. It was a very
good price, so I grabbed a box.

This Hornady 300WSM brass has been very
good to me for many reloads. This is the
third box in two weeks, I’m set for a long
time.

Ammo is like $100 bills <...>. You can never have too many or too much.


My job required me to be in a plane for hundreds of hours . . . taking a cue from the military guys I knew, the saying always went, "The only time you can have too much gas or too much ammo is when you're on fire". :cool:
