They just got it in...

anyone interested in ordering that's on file with them?  Maybe we could save on shipping.

Please let me know if you are ready to order, I am.  794 4167 is my cell

it will be close to 53 cents a round after shipping.

This is one of the best prices I've seen in 308 in awhile.


I wonder if this is the surplus ammo that the British had stockpiled in Iraq/Afghan..now hitting the commercial market since they are pulling out all their soldiers from the sandbox......any one knows for sure?

Too bad it's not reloadable.

you are so right...sorry i got too excited....

I also did shipping to my old address in Texas which was cheaper shipping...but no excuse to be off by 1cent a round....

GOOD DEAL either way...

I read somewhere that berdan primed is reloadable but requires more work.

Still cheaper than brown/silver bear .308 and its brass...

Found this interesting: Describes the amount of work necessary to work with Berdan primed brass in a humorous way... ;D

Wow....no thanks....in reloading it.

I don't even have enough knowledge or time to load boxer primed so for sure I'll pass on the reloading work of berdan primed ammo.
