Is This Ammo a Good Buy? - Page 2

excellent price on the S and B. they shoot pretty well. never had a problem with shooting them on glocks and 92FS.

Would the age of the 9mm ammo matter? The .22? How long would ammo like that last?

Heck, buy it just to save the brass...

But S&B is good stuff, and that is a great price for the 9mm.

I've shot surplus 9mm ammo that was head stamped 1953 and it shot fine.

I disagree. I'd pass on both.

Why?

The price doesn't impress me and I don't like S&B ammo.

I agree with the masses. Hop on that deal! It sounds pretty good to me. My pistols like the stuff!

1) 75 boxes (3,750 rounds) of Sellior & Bellot 9mm for $500

2) 20 boxes (1,000 rounds) of Winchester SuperX .22 LR for $25 (says I can use this in both rifles & pistols)

Thanks!

i hope your friend keeps at least one gun.i could not picture myself not having any guns.except in my dreams where i have ray guns on distant galaxies.

Yep, they make the sweet clear plastic shotgun shells I use in my short barrel Mossberg...great quality! Sounds like a great deal for the 9mm. But you can get 550 rounds of federal .22 for around $12.
