Firearm Fodder - Buy a Box a Week Plan - Page 69 - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

My A-T-G order showed up yesterday.

2 (50rd) of .45 230gr HST
2 (50rd) of 9x18 Mak Silver Bear 95gr FMJ
1 (50rd) of .38spec Sellier & Bellot wadcutter

If the 100rds of HST feed and fire well, I'll probably order another 100-200rds soon. If I like the Silver Bear, I'll probably pick up 500rds of that. I don't go through the .38 stuff very fast, so the S&B is a test box and I'll buy more sometime down the road if I like it.

Just ordered 2 50-rd boxes of 124 gr. +P 9mm Federal HST from ammunitiontogo. 1 box to load in my carry guns, and 1 to put away.

Was looking to replace ammo used sighting in my AR yesterday:

500 rds 55gr. Lake City 5.56mm $9.33 a box of 20 SHIPPED from Silver State Armory

I will be looking into Georgia Arms "Canned Heat" more in the future. Anyone here have first hand knowledge of their ammo?

The CCI Blazer Brass 9mm was all gone. I picked up a box of .40 and .45 anyway.

I've not bought any of the "Canned Heat" stuff, but I picked up 500rds of 230gr .45 FMJ from Georgia Arms at the gun show and I've been shooting through it. Not a single problem. It doesn't seem extra smoky or dirty, but I'm no expert. I expect my gun to be dirty after shooting, so WWB, Blazer, whatever doesn't matter to me. As long as it shoots well and functions properly.

Yea, dirty is fine. After 200 rounds of just about anything i expect to have "dirty".

Reliable is my biggest concern. Like you, WWB, Remington, anything BUT Wolf.

Thanks for your response.

Found a case of 10 boxes total 1000rnds of WWB 9mm that I didn't know I had. I feel like I hit the lotto (even though it was just stored in an unusual spot and I didn't remember it).

KingWulfgar · 08-06-2008, 05:06 PM

Picked up 1 box of 100rds WWB (.45). It was $29.88 today.

The Blazer stuff was $15.97 for 50.
