Question .380 Ammo In Stock - Holy Crap!

It's pricey but Lucky Gunner Ammo's got some .380 ammo in stock from both Wolf and Aguila:

380 Auto Ammo In Stock | Cheap 380 ACP Ammo For Handguns | 380 ACP Handgun Ammunition For Sale | Lucky Gunner Ammo

What's the cheapest anybody's seen on this stuff? I've bought from Lucky Gunner Ammo before and they ship right away so I'm not concerned about a back order...just want to make sure I'm not getting hosed.

Sounds kind of pricey. I just found some privi 380 for $22 a 50 round box at a local shop. I thought that was kind of marked up. Would hope internet source would be cheaper.

About 2 months ago I found some WWB and bought 2 50rnd boxes for 18.99 a box. 2 days later I stopped back in and the shelf was bare.

I have 200 ish cases and 1000+ fmj bullets for .380 so I am not in a hurry to buy factory ammo unless the price is right.

Agree on rape prices. My wife shoots 380 and its her bedside gun. Got a extra box so she could shoot it some.

WalMart by me had about 10 boxes of 100ct Winchester White box - was like $32 a box. Wanted to buy it as an investment but wife said no. I didn't argue - not worth the effort since I don't have a .380 pistol.

I found some dies at a local shop and ordered some brass and bullets from Abrass (Kent) at Bullets, Once Fire Brass, Reloading Supplies, Shooting Supplies He is great to deal with.

This is for my daughters gun and with whats available and the prices I am going to add this caliber to my bench. Now to handle those itty bitty bullets and cases with my big ole fingers.

Yea, .60 cents a round for Aguila does seem on the high side, then factor in shipping, probably about .65 cents or more? But seems par for course with the cost of all other ammunition. In that I mean, it's up there. lol

On a side note, that brand is pretty decent ammo.

With new brass, bullets, primers and powder it looks like I can reload for under $.30 each. After that the price drops to around $.12.
