Ammo prices
I was unaware that the folks at ar15.com tracked ammo prices so you don’t have to. Check it out. Arfcom, is there anything it can’t do?
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.

Hmmmm….anything it CAN’T do? Well, how would we replace the outmoded, outdated, inaccurate, and totalitarian bureaucratic bullsh-t of the BATFU?
Surely citizens and the internet can do BETTER.

Dang arf.com buggers are caliber-ists…where’s the listing for 7.62×39? Or .308?
Dang .223 EBR fetishists…

Isn’t 7.62 X 51mm the same as .308?
April 3rd, 2006 at 9:10 pm
Yes and no. Short answer, they’re mostly interchangable. Long answer is here.

My head hurts. Please don’t expound on the difference between .223 and 5.56mm right now…

Heartless Libertarian,
The 7.62×39 ammo has been more scarce and more expensive lately as you probably know. Some say our government is buying it up for whatever reason??? I also read that the bulk order web-sites are all back-ordered in that round.
An ammo salesman at the recent Tennessee State Fairgrounds gunshow told me it was going to Iran; that Russia, from whence it is imported, is sending it to Iran instead of the U.S. presumably to be used against a war with the U.S.
I was able to buy a little there for $3.95 for 20 rds. when it had been about $2.75 not too long ago and I have seen it for only $2.00 for 20 a couple of years ago. I did manage to find some Monarch brand at Academy Sports for $2.86 a box just last week, but I got the last few boxes they had.

I wasn’t really commenting on 7.62×39 in particular. Just that they seem a bit limited in what they report on.
Of course, it is ar15.com. Emphasis on AR15. The vast majority of which are .223.
Us milsurp fetishists who have 5+ different calibers represented in our gunsafes…oi, lots of web surfing.
