"Today I bought one 20 round box of PMC X-TAC 5.56 for $11.99 at a local hardware store/gun shop."

2ndsorjourn asked: "That'll last all but what....5 seconds?"

Sure, in certain circumstances but the last time I shot my WW AR-15 I sighted in my new Nikon M-223 scope and shot about 15 rounds. I was just replacing what I had shot. I have several hundred rounds of .223/5.56 already and they only had 8 boxes on the shelf so I am trying to practice what I preach and not buy any more than what I need and leave some for others.
"THIS MADNESS MUST STOP!"
