Title: 12,500 Round Barrel
Post by: Nemo on December 16, 2018, 12:42:33 PM

of 223 ammo, at $3900.  Bulk packed in steel drum.  Works out to $0.31 a round.

Methinks I need to do some figuring on where to unstore the money and store the barrel.  Then get enough mags for it.

7.62x51 ammo is 7,500 round for $4,050.

Just so you all know, I am accepting cash as a Christmas present.

  You would need a forklift or a tractor with a bucket to move it around. And the price isn't that great either.

Unfortunately that is not a very good price for buying ammo in that kind of bulk. Once you add shipping to that it will go up between .02 - .04 per round.  Not good pricing at all.
