To day i bought a box of 50 aguila 30 cal. here in Ga. $21 before tax.:yikes:, I have not bought any in a long time, does that seem kinda high? I had already been to three gun stores with no luck and this store only had about 6 box's left. The last 2 gun show's i went to Ga. arm's was also out. lboos.
That's pretty much true all over the ammo "spectrum". I believe the cheapest I say it was at a gunshow for @ $15.00 -- and that was about four months ago.
lboos - Where in GA did you find 30 carbine ammo? If you care to share.
Thanks
I found it at... wild west traders on austell rd. in Marietta Ga. lboos.
I hope after the Obama scare settles down, so will the prices.
If not, time to stock up for the revolution!
i saw some pmc at local pawn shop for 20$ tax included, the guy said it was the last he had/would have for some time! he also had 500rds of the wolf for 200$ that comes to .40 cents a round! i used to pick that stuff up for .17 cents a round! thats in the midwest,(okla.)
Right now it is best to sit back and wait for your favorite ammo sellers to get ammo in. Aim had 30 carbine for about 2 days, $15.75 a box. Carbine ammo on Gunbroker has been selling for $35 to $50 a box. Found some 38 special FMJ for $12.49 a box, was gone the next day. Check the sellers daily, when they get your caliber in and it is a good price, jump on it, don't wait.

darn I just sold some boxes of 30 carbine to a buddy for $16 a box.
I think it'll go back down, but I bet we'll never see $10 a box carbine ammo again. :(Quote:

Out of desperation today I bought two boxes of Remington UMC. Marked price was $27.99 but checked out at $25.99.
Even at $25.99 I couldn't make myself go back for the last two boxes. I got what I needed for the time being. The last two boxes are for the next guy to make the drive.

Yea, this is definitely a case of "if you haven't started reloading yet, why are you waiting?".... While a small rifle primers are hard to find, everything else is available to reload (especially if you kept your old brass). Even with primers at $30 per thousand and FMJ's for $15 per hundred, you can make 50 rounds of carbine for $10 per box... that pays for a press very quickly. I just can not justify buying target ammo for $25 or more a box. Now if I can just talk all you guys into sending me your used brass....
Sounds like a bargain ... only .30 carbine ammo we saw at the gun show in Conroe (TX) a week ago Saturday was Aguila at $29 + tax/box of 50.
