To get 500 or 1000 rounds of .223 or .556 for a decent price? After reading White's post I'd think I'd like to get some.

What’s decent? Best I’ve found is anywhere from .48-.52 cents per round.

That'll work

Is .556 BTHP 68 gr match by Horandy Frontier a good round?

Better than nothing. I'd want a barrel with at least a 10 twist for that long of a bullet.

(if accuracy is a concern)

Thanks hippie. It's a 1:8 twist 20 inches long.

Your good to go.

The Bomgaars farm supply store in Valentine Nebraska has more .223 ammo than you could shoot in a lifetime. Not sure what the price was.

Our Bomgaars is stocked but VERY pricey

Check your pms catch

you can get to right about 53 cents a round with shipping that is about as good as it gets right now

if you need to get les quantity at a time and locally look for the Frontier 5.56 from Hornady running about 12 dollars a box of 20 or about 60ish cents a round a touch more with tax but you can get what you can afford each week as it has been reasonably available around here
not every store has it.

I only have 1 rifle in .223, that's a NEF single shot, it's finicky with with ammo. I need to play more with it this summer. I would like to settle on a whitetail deer round and a coyote varmit round before I stock too much. Probably more a 150 yard shot for most of my hunting grounds. Does not like the generic FMJ stuff.

We have Sportsmans Warehouse here. They have truck loads of everything, especially 5.56. What they don't have any of is 7mm-08.

Go to ammoseek.com

.45 to .55 is pretty typical around here for 55gr fmj

Watch Palmetto State armory for daily deals. They typically have 5.56.
