If you have a Walmart nearby check them for Winchester USA (White box) 40 per box if I remember correctly, it is loaded with a 45 gr hollow point. The last time I bought some it was reasonably priced and shot very well, plus it is devastating on impact. Another plus for it is that you have once fired Winchester brass to sell to recoup some of your cost, or to save for the day you start reloading.

223 Rem, my favorite cartridge - you can't argue with truckloads of dead PD's and gophers.
