I see some advertising as low as 38 cents per round. Haven't seen if it's clickbait or real yet tho

No, and it's out of stock

But yeah that's how I shop cheap ammo. Is do a search for today's average CPR (cents per round.) Then do that number ×'s the amount being sold. If that number is let's say 37 cpr, you'll be at roughly 370$ per thousand. Only thing is those prices are low many times due to the sheer bulk size being bought. So you can expect it to be a bit higher in smaller volume boxes. Typically you pay extra for that convenience and extra packaging and handling involved. Sometimes they're extra expensive, but they come in a nice reusable steel ammo can etc. So then you have to account for that and shop thier prices also and yeah you get the idea

Lowest I seen so far today is 40 cents per round. So that's not far off and seems decent

Helps that SG also ships free. When you add shipping to a good deal, it usually kills it. Their 223/556 prices are pretty good all things considered.

I always price compare.
Check for scams/credibility
Check if in stock and delivery ETA
Figure shipping and taxes
But then, I can be a thrifty $0B

But keep in mind shipping costs, and consider buying locally Gulf Coast Guns with their near-constant "sales tax holiday" specials.

PSA has PMC bronze .223 for $6.99 a box on their daily deals today. I dunno what shipping is, but that’s $350 for 1000rds.

SGA used to be the best pricing around. I don’t know where they went sideways, but they are high nowadays. Last month I got a case (1000) of SS109 from Atlantic for $359, and of course $30 shipping… So $389 shipped. I used to look at SGA emails to buy. Now I look just to laugh.

SG is good people! Over $200 gets free shipping. Factor that into final cost.

Their prices used to be solid, but they did some sketchy stuff during the pandemic that was anti-consumer. They took a long time to bring their prices down when the industry standard did. I like SGA and do shop with them often, but I will keep that sketchiness in mind.

i have always had good luck with SGA, if it is on their website, it is in stock. fast shipping , & as others have said, orders over a certain amount qualify for free shipping.
i like the fact they are a small company also, but i have been doing most of my ammo buying eye to eye in the last 6 months...
