Great UMC 9mm Deal at Dick's Sporting Goods

Don't know how many of you have a Dick's Sporting goods nearby, but the one near me had an add in the paper today for 50 rnds. Remington UMC 9mm 115gr FMJ for $4.XX each (can't remember the exact price, but it was under $5.00). Brass cased, boxer primed (of course). I picked up a couple boxes today. The guy at the gun counter said there's a two box limit, but I suppose I could go in again tomorrow, and the next day, etc. and get two boxes on each trip if I really wanted.

Anyway, just thought I'd share the info.

I've noticed that UMC in general runs cheaper then WWB here, at least a $1 per 100.

Though, I have two cases of Winchester 9mm Nato that I got, which will last me a while

I've never been impressed with the UMC ammo.

I've found it to be inconsistent and dirty.

It may not be the best ammo in the world, but at this price it's hard to beat for plinking! I can't even find Wolf for much less than this (and no... I don't shoot Wolf through my Hi Power; I only buy Wolf in 7.62 x 39 for my SKS and SAR-1).
