Cheapest place for surplus 5.56/7.62 bullets?

Where is the cheapest place to buy these without pull marks?

Try Pat's Reloading. He has a lot of surplus but I'm not sure what he has right now.

Take a look at some of these places:
http://www.patsreloading.com/patsrel/prices.htm
http://www.iidbs.com/hitech.zkb
http://www.gibrass.com/index.html
http://www.wideners.com/index.cfm

All things considered, most often you have to deal with the guy that has it, not someone that claims he is going to have it...sometime....someday....some year. Also expect long shipping dates. I think Pats is behind about 3 weeks. I allow 4 weeks for my stuff to come in.

Pat has 147 grain fmjbt resized from .310 to .308 for 8cents a pill. wc846 for 95 per 8 pound keg in bulk, too. Blc-2 data. www.patsreloading.com as above. Nice looking bullets. They appear virgin, I believe they are from a Russian munitions plant that shut down. Check out that powder price too. I'm using it to roll .223 and .308. Meters well and costs 2/3 of win748, plus takes a slightly lighter charge.

www.hi-techammo.com had ss109's for cheap, but they are out of stock again. Nasty pull ding on the side. Like they got shanked with a knife, but pretty cheap.
