Thanks for link and thank you to everyone else for all your input.

While I violated my own rules about posting "Brass Cased Ammo Only", I would like to vote that we get back on track of keeping this thread brass only.

We all know there is steel cased stuff out there for much cheaper but I simply refuse to shoot coated steel in my guns. I will give the zinc plated stuff a try but I just don't want to mess with the coated stuff.

Screw it...decided to try zinc plated steel.

5.20 per box of 20 = 0.26 per round = 259.98 per 1k delivered!

Anybody try this stuff? I ordered 2k rounds. Figured I'd give it a good try...

I read it's a little dirty but shoots well and is better than the coated steel cases.

FYI, this stuff is apparently magnetic so don't take it to your local range. I shoot in the desert.

you might not get your order for a month. i am still waiting on my order from june 29th

Just letting you know MFS is zinc plated steel casing aka coated stuff

I'm pretty sure he meant "coated" as in polymer or lacquer (which I don't shoot either).

they are definitely running behind on shipping (totally understandable with the free shipping promo and continued various discounts)...

Initially I was receiving product about 10 from date of order... today I got shipment for order placed a little over two weeks ago and I have two pending orders from 7/7 and 7/9.

I've been 100% satisfied with everything I've been getting from PSA... and their CS is awesome! Knowing I'm not being Jack Ross'd, I don't mind the wait (in fact, I keep ordering ).

Best deal I could find on brass .223 right now.

Cabela's had a holiday deal on PMC Bronze, 300rnds plus a free dry box for $99 free shipping. Came out to $6.66 per box. Don't know if it's still good though.

Glad I grabbed 5k of PMC back in the Spring when it was $279.00 per 1k. I think I am at the threshold right now, it just seems too much to pay .34 to .38 per round for 5.56 ammo, not worth it. Shooting my Mosin a lot more than my ARs these days.

I refuse to pay these outrageous prices for 223, I guess I'm too used to picking up cases of 223 right around 10 cents per round back in the day, used to buy Norinco brass/ boxer primed 223 all day for $160 for 1600 rds/case at Turner's and the Great Western Gun Shows, good I stocked up back then and sitting on 10K or so.

Pretty ridiculous but at least it's 5.56 and will come with good reloading brass.
