Ted Murphy Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I hate that carry ammo seems to all come in 20 round boxes now. If you have say a Glock 19 with 2 spares you are looking at buying 3 of these #@$@ 20 round boxes instead of one 50 round box. And if you like to keep a little more than that on hand, it gets even more expensive. And if you want to practice occasionally with your carry ammo, you better win the powerball first! I managed to get several boxes of Speer 9mm 124 grain in the 50 round boxes but I do not think they are still sold to civilians that way anymore. I hope I am wrong. I really do not need the latest greatest Zen-Death ammo, just something of decent quality I can buy enough of to practice occasionally with and have a supply on hand.

motosapiens Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) I hate that too, so i don't buy the stuff marketed as carry ammo, I buy the stuff marketed towards LE that typically comes in 50 round boxes (federal hydrashock, winchester ranger, etc....) I've been able to get 50 rd boxes of good hollowpoint ammo for under $20/50 from cheaperthandirt.com for both 9mm and 40.

The Guy Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I hate that these 20 round boxes where made by the marketing departments of the ammo companies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdzman Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I hate that a lot of the shops don't carry the 50 round boxes even though there available, they just want you to spend more money buying the boxes of 20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Guy Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I know. The shop owner is usually a shooter and will order the 50 round boxes for themselves but not for the customer to buy. They want there shop profits to stay high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
