Any interest in a Group Buy of 5.56 62gr M855?

How about we do this?  If you want in on the deal, list the number of rounds you would like.

What's the deal again?  I lost track.

Me too...You give me $300 and I will send you 20 rounds of something.  Does that sound like a deal? 

OR how about this deal?  This is the best deal I can find.  Final Answer...

AbleAmmo has PMC Bronze Line Rifle Ammunition 223A, 223 Remington, FMJ Boat-Tail, 55 GR, 3200 fps, 20 Rds/Box

http://www.ableammo.com/catalog/bronze-line-rifle-ammunition-223a-remington-boat-tail-3200-rdsbox-p-106834.html

50 boxes @ $5.29/box + 20.73 shipping = $285.23.  That is a final price of $0.285 per round.

I pretty much stick to the M855.

Come on Mud!  This is such a LOW price.  Your gun is BEGGING to be shot as much as you will be able to at this price.

I honestly feel like Widener's deal on IMI M855 is superior...

http://www.wideners.com/itemdetail.cfm?item_id=9019&dir=18|830|845

1200 rounds for $346 + ~$20 shipping.

So $366 / 1200 = 30.5 cents per round.

gonna need 1k of 62 grain 5.56 and if it gets us all a better deal, 2k of 124 grain 9mm fmj

Ok...I am willing to go with the M855 since we have three interested parties other than myself.

It does appear that Widener's deal on the IMI M855 is the best I can find for brass case rounds.

Shipping for 1,200 is $24.42.  So that is $346 + $24.42 = $370.42 or 30.8 cents per round.

I am in for at least 300 rounds.  Mudinyeri, dukduk, and SeanN...what say yous guys?

does the deal get sweeter if we all go in on it? i'll get the 1200 rounds, thats pretty good

Good thing i started reloading.. By the amounts you order, a progressive press would start to make sense. I reload 223's for $0.23 each (including used brass off gunbroker) After the first load it goes down to $0.18 per round..

If you dont want to reload, there are places like webbsbrass.com . They are a commercial reloader. His starting price is $30 for 100 and it goes down the more you order. If you have a bunch of used brass, you can send it to them and they reload it.

Every penny counts if you talk thousands...
I just got 2500 223 cases this week. Hope to get at least half of them loaded over the weekend.

Of course, that assumes that you have the time for reloading. 

Fly, I'd do 300 rounds if we can figure out a cost-effective way of getting it from you to me.

The shipping goes down a miniscule amount...so no, not too much.  BUT it does help me piggyback and get a better price considering I don't have the $ for 1200 rounds. 

Honestly though.  If you guys all want 1200 rounds, you can just order and have it delivered directly to your door.  The advantage of ordering together would be realized if we ordered some of the PMC 55gr.  Ordering 1,000 rounds of that stuff brings it down to $0.285/round.

Let me know if anyone is interested in breaking one of these M855 1,200 round boxes up and I will coordinate.  If this does not work for me then, no big deal.  I will try to find another group that may be interested in that PMC deal.

By the way, I am in Lincoln, and that is where I would have it delivered.

We could meet somewhere between Omaha and Lincoln, or if I could find another member headed to Omaha, then I could ask them to be the mule.

If you mean..."What is the status of this group buy?".  I'm waiting for any other interested parties to speak up.

If you mean..."What is the ammo and price for this group buy?".  See my post #25.
