Anyone interested in group buy? Federal XM193F Brown Box 5.56mm 55gr FMJ

(1/4) > >>

OnTheFly:
If I buy 20 boxes, the $5.99/box + shipping will bring the cost per round to $0.322.  As the number of boxes ordered goes up, the shipping charge goes down and it will be cheaper per round.  For example, if 40 boxes are purchased, the price becomes $0.317 per round.

I will probably order in the next week.  If anyone is interested, please let me know. This is a good price and I expect it to go quickly so we must move on it ASAP.

PLEASE ONLY SERIOUS BUYERS as I will have to make a final calculation and let everyone know what they owe. 

Please post in this thread how many boxes you want.  I will ask that any interested parties have a PayPal account and send their funds (after I provide them with the final amount) via the "Send Money" option.  I will provide the details via PM or email if we have interested parties.  This process will be similar to the AR-15 magazine group buy set up by Mudinyeri.

I believe the brass is Lake City and may be good for reloading for those interested.  Maybe someone else can confirm this?

Bump + forgot to mention that I live in Lincoln.  I could drive to to the outskirts of Lincoln to meet anyone who wants in on this group buy.

Fly,

I'll go for 20 boxes (400 rds) if you decide to go ahead with the order.  I already have a PayPal account, and I live in Lincoln, so I can pick it up when it gets here.  Thanks.  :)

Ghost

OnTheFly:
Thanks for that.  I'm thinking of only waiting until Wednesday or Thursday (February 22nd or 23rd) to place the order.  I don't know if there is a risk of them running out soon.  I will send an email or call to find out how they are doing on stock.

OnTheFly:
I called PSA and they have 15K rounds left, so running out does not sound like a concern.  Though the young lady said the prices are scheduled to go up 10+%.  Not sure if that is a sales pitch or what.
