Dutchman195 Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 I can load 1k 9mm 115gr Bayous for about 90 bucks. And that includes if I paid myself what I make a hour at my day job. Hard to beat IMHO. American Eagle/Federal will probably have a Rebate this month or next on their ammo that could help get a deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtian999 Posted April 30, 2018 Author Share Posted April 30, 2018 That is cheap! Unfortunately, some of us do not have a reloader setup (yet) and need to buy retail. I have a class coming up that only allows factory ammo. But $.09 is about half of what I am finding in new brass fmj 9mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbo0321 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 I’ve always used sgammo or targetsportsusa. I’ve purchased 8000 rounds of magtech 115gr 9A. I’ve shot it in plenty of matches using my Glock 34 and it sits right about 130 PF. I have had zero FTF or FTE malfunctions in 8k. And the most I’ve paid is 189.00 for 1000 rds. Cheapest was 160.00. And the brass is reloadable as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Save your brass and sell it to me In hindsight I realize my post was not helpful, apologies. Gunbot, ammoseek are both good websites to kind of get a base line. Look for Manufacture rebates from Federal, Magtech Etc. See if any local loaders or ranges want to buy your brass back (helps the bottom line). Since shipping will sometimes eat your money, Sometimes ranges have a remanufactured ammo supplier stocking their shelves for the range ammo. Trace that company back to the source and see if they'll load you whatever you want 124/147 and buy a few thousand. A local guy here does blazer 124gr cases. IF the class is outside can shoot steel Wolf stuff for cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtian999 Posted May 9, 2018 Author Share Posted May 9, 2018 Good advice, thanks. I have a brass catcher for my carbine, esp for 300 blk. Not picking up brass for pistol yet, but I will start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
