first let me say, i dont mean to sound rude and being new i dont want to step on anyones toes but...
brown bear from ammo to go is only 106.95 for 500, so yea with tax (if i was shipping) it woulda cost me 129.21 for a2g and 123.81 from aim (so yes uncle sams cut makes it cost more at a2g)...but since i bought at the show i guess it would have been like 117 or so including taxes making it cheaper then aim. but the biggest issue with this example? i wouldnt shoot brown bear ammo out of a sling shot, much less use it in my guns, i still have a box of 9mm i cant give away.. will never make that mistake again.
the point is there are deals everywhere, and if u do your homework before going to a show, walmart, or the local indy shop your gonna know what is an average cost per round and youll know when you price your ammo at a show, or else where if youre getting taken or not.
My apologies, I must be looking at a different site than you, here shows $137:
7.62X39 : Ammunition To Go
If you google Brown Bear, alot of people happen to like the rounds.
I picked Brown Bear only as a side by side comparison of the 2 websites, but you are right "the point is there are deals everywhere, and if u do your homework before going to a show".
I did that, and I found that the show was 25-30% higher than online & wallyworld. The very same box of Federal .40 S&W at wally world was $14/box and was $18/box at the show. I also compared WOLF AK rounds and UMC 9mm and they all seemed to have a 30% mark-up.
I guess you had a better experience.
