    .223 group buy ??

    We CGNers have done a lot of group buys of late. How about a group buy of .223 55gr FMJ ? Say something like PMC ,that is running $400ish /1000 and shipping is about $30.00 /1000.We would buy in bricks of 1000 and pay with a USPS MO to the seller. There would be no limit on how much you could order . If 25 of us bought 2K rounds each maybe we could get the price in the $350.00/1000 range.
    What ya think ? any takers / interest ?

    Well, the only way I would expect to be able to line up such a deal is to get in touch with some reloading company (I know of a couple out East) that ships out in large pallets (get hundred-weight discount with freight company).

    Either way, I haven't been loading lately and want to stay in the loop.

      Would LC M193 be cheaper than PMC? haven't checked on Ammo prices as of late, so not sure. or Prvi M193? I notice Wideners got it for a decent price...looks like 'bout $400 OTD with shipping included...but of course they got no mo.

        You are assuming there is some place that has ammo they will sell you.

            "If 25 of us bought 2K rounds each maybe we could get the price in the $350.00/1000 range. " <- Do you have a seller!?!?!?!??!?

            If you ship UPS, your limit per shipping is around 2k rounds, you wouldn't get a "shipping break" due to the heavy weight. You would have to ship freight.

            25 * 2k = 50k rounds... i doubt u would get any break in that LOW quantity...

            You can get PMC for $387/1k shipped to you.

                I think this would work well if everyone that did the buy was local, and the entire shipment went to someones location and everyone was responsible for picking up their part of it.

                I could be interested if we could get it set up at a reasonable price.

                        most vendors can barely keep ammo in stock, why would they offer it at a discount?
