I have 4-5,000 rods so not really looking, more just wondering if there’s anything to fill the vacuum just created by the clown in chief.

I found some leftover brass-cased stuff and placed a modest order. If it pans out, I may share. 😊

Be sure and read the fine print.
There's lots of older x39 ammo out there that sounds cheap, but it's got corrosive primers.

I ordered all I could a couple of days ago, and more tonight. They shipped next day. I have not received it yet, nor have had any previous dealings with this seller, CE. There should be 30 boxes left? Shipping is terribly high. But, consider the cost and availability of brass if you are interested in that sort of thing, my main interest. I do feel raped paying double what shipping actually costs. Bastids. https://www.gunbroker.com/item/909986835When some sells, the relisted item appears at the end of their other items listings with a new item number.

I’ve had good luck with Geco ammo. I just can’t find it at those prices here anymore.

Good reviews. I hate to pay the shipping, but, after looking at brass pricing and availability, I leaned forward and took it. Still 30 boxes.

My LGS has crates of brass cased x39 but it's corrosive.
I would have got him too but a Dad Blam snow flake hit me in da eye....

Received the order and it was is as advertised.
I hadn't looked for ammo much, just heard the horror stories and saw empty shelves. I just located some 30-06 hunting ammo for a friend and concluded $1.36/round delivered was a heck of a "bargain".. LOL At this rate my horde of components is retirement money!

Wayne's too busy having suits tailored to worry about ammo supply.

I got a call 2 weeks ago from the NRA wanting me to renew my membership. I told the gentleman not until Wayne is gone! He said he understood and said have a nice day and hung up. Something tells me they are hearing that a lot but Wayne doesn’t give 2 [bleep] what members think. My money has been going to GOA mostly for several years now and I’ve also joined FPC.

Looking around from gundeals Barnaul steel case w/fmj. Came to $220.43 shipped/500. 44cpr https://trueshotgunclub.com/ammunit...-123-grain-fmj-bi-metal-case-500-rounds/Wolf steel case w/hollowpoints, came to $524 shipped/1000 https://gunprime.com/products/wolf-...oint-case-of-1000-rounds-bulk-steel-case----- CORRECTION, THIS IGMAN AMMO IS BOXER PRIMED AS INDICATED BY TARGET SPORTS USA. All of the the others are incorrect. Per Igman pdf. Reloadable brass cased for 52 cents per round delivered. Best brass-cased price BUT determined it's mislabled as Boxer Primed. This ammo is Berdan primed per multiple other sources.
$373.92/720 shipped. 52 cpr https://www.targetsportsusa.com/igman-7-62-39mm-ammo-123-grain-fmj-igm76239-p-111984.aspx
