Good Deal on .223 Ammo?

Someone posted a link to this SGAmmo.com site. They have what seems to be a good deal on .223 ammo. It is Tul brand, which I know is not the best in the world. I have put more than a few magazines worth through my AR15 so I know it eats it up fine. They are selling 1000 round boxes of either combination 55 or 62 grain, and either hollow point or FMJ. I was thinking of getting some 62 grain hollow points because they are only $198 for the 1000 rounds. I don't think I have seen any better than $0.19 / round of 223. Is this a good deal??? Also, is this site reliable to order from?

It's a good deal if you like tul ammo. SGA is very reputable, I've ordered and they're fine. That said, I'd rather spend $10 extra and get 1000 rounds of silver bear from militaryshooters.com. IMO, silver bear is much cleaner and accurate. But, tul is fine if you like it as well.

I shoot Tul all the time... It's no dirtier than anything else I've shot cheap or not.

Buy it if you like the price, its good stuff.

Tula shoots fine in my carbine, and I have ordered from SGAmmo before, good prices, and fast shipping.

I can buy good quality reloaded .223 FMJ for $250/1000. I darned sure won't buy steel cased junk for more.

Last time I checked, $198/1000 is less than $250/1000.

SGammo is easy to deal with

I ordered a full case of 5.56 from them and it was a great price, they shipped the order right away and great communication to boot. I would order from them again in a heart beat.
