    Good price for Lake City M2 Ammo?

    What's a good price per 20 round box of 1960s Lake City M2 30-'06 ammo? Boxes look clean and dry.

    A couple of weeks ago I bought a 192 rounds in an ammo can and in enblocs for $125.00, that's $13.02 a box of 20 if that helps.

    Back in Dec. I ordered 250 rounds of M2 ball Lake City from CMPicon. It arrived a few weeks ago. It was loose 1969 L.C. it cost me $ 80.80 including shipping. That comes to about .33 cents a round or about $ 6.60 for 20 rounds. As it is no longer available I would guess someone selling would double the price and ask about $ 13.00 a box, as Bill H. said.

    Thanks, guys. I picked up 100 rounds at $12 per box. I wanted to be able to compare it to the Greek ammo that is available now.

    Good luck in finding ANY boxed ammo right now. I'm sure the "scalpers" will charge higher prices now that the CMPicon is out of the boxed .30-06.

    Lake City Ammo

    Good pricing I guess.

    I have LC 150 ball in bandoliers/clips/carboard, new. Also have some LC 30.06 Match ammo in boxes, new.

    Any idea on what I could get for these?

    Thanks

    I'd say if you can get .50 a round for the ball in clips you are doing great and I've seen the LC match go for as much as .80 a round

    I've been storing cases of LC 30-06 in bandoliers from the old DCM days. I have a can of Den43 30-06 AP. How much per round?
