Sign Up for ammolands news letter before the 15th.

Brownells sells these for about 5 grand including freight and hazmat.

Its Hornadys Frontier 556 in a 50 gallon drum delivers free to your door.

That's close to 358 per 1k. There's no free shipping. So I can find 556 for 235 per 1k now thats 3290 for 14000. So they are really charging 1710 for shipping and the only packaging is a drum.

This, I'm afraid.

But where are you finding 5.56 for $235/thousand? And is it good stuff, or steel cased crap?

At the last gun show in Phoenix I found the 55gr Fmj for 235 per 1 k. Brass cased. I picked up 1k and ran it in my AR's no problem.

This is for a give away. It's free ammo if you win. Who cares what it costs.

For clarity
I misread the brownells add. Rounded up instead of down so heres the particulars.
105-000-748MB
5.56mm NATO 55gr Full Metal Jacket 13,889 rounds/Barrel $4239.99 which is 31 cents a round.

The drum is supposedly around 2 feet tall 20 inch diameter . So not a 55 or 30 gallon drum. Iirc that's 15 gallon drum


I have no idea what almost 14000 rounds of ammo weighs. For shipping.
