Cheap bulk Ammo

BamaBowTie · 11-03-2004, 01:28 AM

Where should I go to get some cheap cases of Wolf or something along that price range. I'm interested in .45acp and 7.62x39.

Is 7.62x39 steel core now available since the ban was lifted?
If so get you some. At one time 1200 rds. of Norinco steel core could be purchased for $99 to $110.
I have shot a lot of Norinco and have never had a problem with it.

Should be able to find plenty of bulk at your next gunshow....I see millions of rounds every time I go.

Can someone tell a new gun owner what the difference in rounds is. For example, there are several different types of magtech 9mm rounds. Some say Luger 124 Gr. Some say Luger 95 Gr. And then there are the JHPs and LRNs. What do those letters stand for and what's the difference between all these 9mm varieties? Thanks so much?

Gr. designates the bullet weight in grains which originally indicated a like weight of grains of wheat. I don't know what the equivilant weight was (there is a standard, I'm just too lazy to look it up). JHP's are Jacketed Hollow Points, LRN's are Lead Round Nose, FMJ's are Full Metal Jackets, etc..
As a general rule, fmj's and lrn's are general target\plinking rounds while hollow-points and\or frangible ammo is considered to be defensive\hunting ammo.

Wait till he sees something like FMJBT, or LRNFP.

I'd add to this list Ammo For Sale | Cheap Surplus Ammo | Lucky Gunner Ammo ... they've got cheap ammo - most of the time! - occasionally they'll be way over-priced but at least everything is in stock that's on the site....

Not sure whether this is what you're looking for, but 7000 grains = 1lb; or for the metric-oriented among us, 0.0648 grams approx = 1 grain or 1 gram = about 15.4 grains.

I shoot Brown Bear 7.62x39 out of my AK and SKS With no problems at all. Usually get it from Wrigley Ammo.

Try www.wideners.com. I've had good luck with them. Next would be www.jgsales.com. Good luck with them as well. Depends on the day as to what they have though.
