I have 4 boxes of Remington 170 grain ammo, bought it for a guy and he has left me hanging now for months, 200.00 shipped to you


There are a lot more ½" rifles than ½" shooters.

Are they the same as the Corelocks you can currently buy at any Walmart for $22 a box?

So you were looking to buy once fired 30-30 brass but yet you can buy factory new ammo for 22.00 a box, I think you are full of sheet

Sorry your buddy left you hanging. Free bump...

Yep.
Quick math
$0.54 each for brass including shipping (a little more than I wanted to pay, but I’m not the kind of person to haggle over a few bucks).
$0.27 each for Hornady 3035 bullets
$0.04 each for primers (NOS of mine)
$0.15 per rd IMR 3031 (29.5 gr)
Exactly $1.00 per round (sans my labor)

Saved about $4 a box (based on Walmart prices including tax), or $30 a box compared to your price.

But...these are for reduced recoil for my 10 year old kid - that shoot sub MOA. Can’t readily buy those, and certainly not the required kind of performance from the 170 factory Corelokts.

I guess I could have shot up (or pulled) some from the 5-6 boxes of 170gr Corelokts I bought for $10 a box a few years ago for the brass, or just bought new ones at Walmart for $22 just for the brass.


GLWS. Did you read all my old posts, or just a few?

Because I read a few of yours. Are these the ones you bought for $170?

Not to mention you can load each case multiple times...so actual cost could be a fair bit lower.

Just sayin...

Bump for the seller.

Yes - but the side by side comparison in this case was the same. So I didn’t amortize the # firings.

This place gets strange sometimes. Let the guy ask what he wants, they’re his to do with as he pleases. If someone is willing to pay his asking price, good for him. And if he’s making a profit, good for him again.

You have to remember that just because certain ammo or items are available in one area, does not mean its available everywhere at a given price. And many ammo companies do not ship to individuals or certain areas. If you need it, you need it. Let the guy post his ads.

That sounds alot like the freedom of [typed] speech. Sometimes the "if you don't like it" comments are alluding to a restriction of that freedom.

Alluding to, not eluding to. Hey it’s a free speech forum, right, so I’m playing English teacher.

I haven’t been able to find Remington core lokt in 30-30 or 35 in a couple years where I live, not in stores anyway. I’ve seen it at auctions for $45 to $60 per box. I’m not a player at that price range, but somebody is. Supply and demand rules the day.

Yes, this is the ammo thatI paid 170.00 for the 4 boxes,so after I ship them,I am going to profit a whole whopping 15.00 at best, just so I can hear [bleep] from and [bleep] like you...GFY !!!!!!

Well this cartridge has likely killed more big game than all others. So 50$ a box seems to be an unbelievable bargain. Well actually...
