About 54 cents a round. Some of you may be ok with that. Too expensive for my blood for 9mm, but it's avail so figure I'd post it up.

 

You want the real answer? It was in a lot of video games.

 

Thanks

It’s all relative. A year ago that was expensive. Now, that’s about as cheap as you will find it.

With all that I have ordered over the past couple of weeks, I don't need any. But I grabbed 5 boxes since I was already on the site. I like to keep a steady stream coming in.

Yep, something like that.

 

Got my Hog/Dog gun ready and headed to NC after New Years
Anyone need help knocking down some pest reach out.

 

Without reading the entire thread to try to figure this out..I'm looking at a Sig P 365 9mm vs a Smith & Wesson M&P 9 Shield for concealed carry. There is about $150 difference in the 2 but I'm not going to let that make my decision.
I have been wanting the Sig for a while but have read that the S&W is a damn good gun.
Opinions?

 

I’ve had both. The Shield is bulletproof but with a lower single stack round count. The last updates to the 365 have also made it bulletproof with nearly double the round count.

 

I don't mind the lower round count if the profile is significantly slimmer. If I can't do the job in 8 rounds I better run.

I wish I could see them side by side but the Sig is 15 minutes away and the Shield is over an hour one way.

I have a newer 365 and it’s my new favorite carry gun.
I’ve held both numerous times and I’d say they are very very close in size. I did a quick search and could not find as many measurements on the smith as I could the sig. Makes me think they are really close in size.

 

That's all helpful. I am going by this afternoon to look at the Sig since it's basically on the way home. If I like it, Merry Christmas to me!

 

If you can find one in stock, buy it.

 

Academy Sports by me has 3 Sigs in stock so I am going by there on my way home today. I can't find ammo for my 38 sp or 357 but can buy 9mm, so gonna get me something nice that I can shoot. Jeezus! WTF is going on with ammo?

 

You can find 9 but not 38 or 357? I need to swing by your part of the country, wherever that is.

 

It's not that hard to get 9 mm. You just gonna have to pay like triple the price it was 8 months ago and it's gonna be a brand you've never heard of.

 

Currently $550/thousand for 9mm here in PDX. (115gr Blazer brass)
Currently $650/thousand for 55gr 5.56 (xm193)

 

I hate to say "that's pretty good" when we're talking about anything that's more than like 25 cents/round for 115g Blazer brass, but that's better than I'm seeing on Ammoseek. Cheapest I see that ammo is 64 cents/round. Cheapest overall 9mm I'm seeing is Wolf and TulaAmmo at around 52-55 cents/round. To be honest I probably just won't buy any until prices start dropping under 40 cents/round...which could be awhile until we see that again. But I can save myself a lot of money by simply not buying any lol I'll just focus more on long-range shooting since I still have plenty of 6.5 creedmoor and that ammo hasn't tripled in price. It is harder to find nowadays though.

 

Just for reference, what I posted was local sales from private individuals, not stores. There's nothing in the stores.
Also various 22cal is about $0.10 - $0.15/round. $200 for 2,000 rounds, etc..
