Is $239.99 for 1000 rounds (20 boxes) of Fiocchi, 9mm, 115 gr. FMJ Case a decent price? + $14 s/h

Feel free to use this thread to post good deals on ammo from reputable sites...after you've made your purchase and let the whole world know. LOL

Seems like the going rate...we always joke at the range shooting 9mm is like throwing quarters at the targets...ouch that kinda hurts when your poppin off 200 rounds!

For 1K, it should be under $200.

well, if you know a [reputable] place on some quality ammo please let me know...

is this an overbid thread?

it has potential...

#3...found one, 9mm Luger Wolf ammunition, 115gr, fmj, 1000rds...$197.98...SOLD OUT! 😞

the wolf stuff is steel casing you can't reload.....try a place called georgia arms--they sell bulk ammo cans in 500's and 1000ct

#7 Dave,

Careful with Wolf, Bear or any other steel case "Eastern Block" ammo. Most of that stuff is lacquered to prevent rust. If your gun gets too warm, the lacquer can melt and cause all kinds of problems. Works fine in AK's and Makarovs, as they where designed for this crap. I don't know if it's still true today, but a few years back several AR manufacturers would void all warranties if you used steel cased in their rifles, as it would really gunk up the actions.

^stupid double tap, LOL. I learn something new everyday. Wolf has a new ammo called "Polyformance" that uses a polymer coating instead of lacquer that isn't suppose to melt. But the lacquer coated stuff is still out there so make sure it says Polyformance.

But at $239/1,000 shipped, I'd pay the few bucks more for the brass cased Fiocchi.

... for personal protection rounds - check out "Buffalo Bore Ammo"... that's what I carry in my Sig, Glock, Kahr or even the KelTec ...

... expensive, but I don't target practice with it ...

... if I "buy" and don't reload I'll either get it through Valor at wholesale or pick it up from:

http://georgia-arms.com/9mmluger-2.aspx 

... good reliable ammo there as well ...

I don't reload

... I can get Blazer Brass in .40S&W 165gr, TMJ, 50rds for $12/bx but they're sold out of 9mm & .45acp at my favorite site ...

... good deal there

^Yes, he's a good guy. I've bought thousands of rounds from him over the past dozen years. He's only a half hour away, so I pickup and get a discount.

Fiocchi is good stuff.
