Can't help you there. Might find some on MidwayUSA — Shooting Supplies, Reloading, Gunsmithing, Ammunition, Gun Parts & Rifle Scopes or Discount Hunting Supplies & Shooting Supplies - Able Ammo

I found that Walmart has the cheapest around the Birmingham, Al area. Cabelas bulk ammo isn't as cheap as Walmart.

Cheapest I have ever found it for is/was $9.99 a box of 50. Now they're $11.99 or $12.99. If you find it any cheaper, let us all know. I never expected it to come down or get anywhere near what .22 cost, but I hoped after a while it would drop down to say $6.99 or $7.99 at the least. I suppose if the raw materials were not as hard to come by, I've both read and heard China has bought up a lot of the raw materials, ie: brass,copper ect.ect., you know, all of the bullet making materials, and the economy wasn't how it is, it just might be a little cheaper. But in truth, all calibers seems to have gone up lately and like gas prices, I doubt they'll ever go back to what they once were. And that's what peeves me off the most.

I also suppose the war is adding to the cost of some ammo because supply is low and demand is high, ie: .223, 9mm, .40. .45, .308 maybe even?
