Best bulk 9mm ammo deals?
I'd like to purchase 2,000 rounds of 9mm ammo. Where would I get the best deal? I will only use it for plinking.

That steel case can be tricky in some guns if yours is like mine are and not picky that's a really good price!

What steel case? Blazer uses aluminum cases. Can't reload but seems to work for most people.

Gun shows always have the best prices for bulk ammo.

Here's a site that shops for you.
http://www.ammoengine.com/find/ammo/9mm My personal favorite isn't the cheapest round but I like to practice with the 124gr. NATO rounds, which usually sell for around $110 a case of 500. Good, accurate, quality ammo that mimics to a degree many carry rounds. |

Depending on where you are, Jack Ross may be a good option, both the reloads and retail ammo are pretty cheap and they have a free shipping region. They've gotten pretty popular lately though, so they're running backorders at the moment.

+1 I just bought 1000 rounds of 115gr. FMJ for $155 (plus shipping). They're reloads (hence the term "training") but it's clean, polished and I've had no issues. |

Aim Surplus has Aguila for $9.50/50 if you buy 1000.

Ever considered reloading? I can reload a box of 9mm w/ plated copper bullets for under $5.00/box.

Yes our labor is worth something. But some of the reasons I like reloading it's cheaper than buying bulk or preloaded ammo, I get to prefect the load/grain weight, its one more aspect of a sport/hobby/passion I am able to do myself, and finally it's relaxing.

...and then there's the gun show.
Found a case of Winchester 124gr NATO ball for $100 at the show today. It's great practice ammo at a Walmart price. I wish he had more to sell. |

I can reload a box of 50 in 15 minutes. That's taking empty cases "as is" after firing (well, I do dump them in my vibratory polisher just because that's me but some guys don't). And I don't have an expensive set-up; that's using a Lee Classic Turret press, not some high-end progressive.
Part of the hobby for me is reloading, so I don't count that time as "cost" just like I don't count my shooting time as cost either. It's all part of the fun!
