.223 ammo

[glockk9mm]

where in the L.A. area can i get different brands of ammo in .223? I am going to need different loads to find the best one for my ar-15. Went to 3 walmarts and they didn't have any ammo in .223

If they have the Sports Authority chain down there you can get the Winchester white box 40 count that Walmart used to sell. I paid $11something yesterday per box and it shoots pretty well in my AR and SU.

I dont think we have one down here, if so i dont know where it's at. Thats a good price.

I have a hard time finding .223 locally too. You can always buy online, but you probably don't want 1000+ rounds.

If you just want a few boxes, I have an open case of Q3131 and a case of Federal AE223 on the way and i'll sell you a few boxes at reasonable prices.

try ammobros.com. they sell their own reloads as well as a variety of factory rounds.

Must be frustrating to live in the LA county since you are not able to buy any ammo. Does it restrict to reloading as well?

I have some on the way from cheaperthandirt.com, its just they didn't have winchester white box and other brands. I appreciate you trying to help out anyways thanks

I really dont know, most of my ammo is from the internet and i dont reload.

I would have to say AMMO Bros. over in Cerritos. (about 3-5 miles east on the 95 from the 710 east of compton/paramount).

ammobros.com They don't keep a good list on their website. You can buy bulk wolf there 500 rounds for $75. Plus you don't get stiffed on paying shipping.

I believe they also got some FMJ Brass Cased reloaded ammo (GOOD if you shoot at a range as most won't allow steel cases).

They are your best bet for local Los Angeles, Whittier, Torrance, Longbeach area Supply.

To my knowledge they keep stock of several brands of ammunition. If you want some differnet factory loadouts you can also try turners. The one in Torrance/Redondo Beach off of Hawthorne Blvd has a large selection of ammo from different companies but their prices are a little more higher than Ammo Bros, they are signicantly more higher if you planned to buy in bulk. (Take the 405 south to the Hawthorne exit, go south [turn right off the freeway] and its right there. To the right of the washing mutual.)

Good luck finding any WWB anymore. I have been to nearly every walmart in the bay area and 4 in the Reno area. Multiple times I have been told that we won't be seeing any more WWB until the war is over. I did clean out all the walmarts I went to out of the Remington green box which was 4.89/20. Which is the same price as the WWB.

Yep, it's disappeared up here in the Redding/Red Bluff area too. I bought all the green box UMC .223 and the Federal value paks as well. I'll be going back today to buy anything that's left. Get it before it's gone.

Thats the beauty of reloading.... Dont need to worry about what is on sale and if it is in stock....

I've been collecting all my 9mm and .223 brass so that when I finally do get a reloader I'll have thousands of it to reload .

[sac7000]

I don't have room for reloading equipment otherwise I would be doing it. I do have one large collection of brass in assorted sizes though..

Thats what I have been doing for the past 2 months. I normally ask if they reload and if the answer is no, I then ask if I can have the brass.... they are more than happy to say yes since they do not need to clean after themselves...=0)

Now the 69 grain SMK cost me about $150.00 for a thousand rounds rather than +$400.00. After 3000 rounds, the savings paid for my reloading equipment.
