Aguila shoots fine for me in the 22 except when it gets cold. It seems to have a waxy coating that keeps the mags from feeding properly. It definitely smells different. Can pick up 9 for 12.99 and 5.56 for 11.99 where I'm at when on sale.
Ok. Call me paranoid, but I noticed that the Herters .223 boxes are not sealed. Very easy to open. Maybe some person opens two boxes, grabs a handful of rounds from one and puts them in the other, closes them, puts the "light" one back on the shelf and takes the "heavy" one to the checkout lane. It could be done in less than 10 seconds.....
Buy a simple Lee turret reloading press with dies and some powder and components. And you will be glad. The press will last forever and you can stock up on the components/powder and be good for years.
@@John5.56 nah you just seen my other comment about the frontier bthp for 10.99$ . They got a mountain stack of those and there staying 10.99$ until January 2nd is what they told me. So I'm going to snag up as many as I can get away with. Lol . Also need some defense rounds for 9mm. Those things are what's pricey these days. Pushing.90 to 1$ a round. Yikes that's crazy talk lol
Here by Baltimore I just went by Bass pro an hour ago and they have about the same stuff that you are seeing. Only the Winchester 9mm 100 round boxes and a whole bunch of 38 special barely any 22 except for one red rattler and some minimags and a couple bulk packs.They did have some green tips but zero M193. Shits getting worse and worse every week it seems with some lucky days mixed in here and there.
Thanks for the video. I did a large online purchase (I know you don't have the patience and you worry about shipping issues) today with solid prices. I got the federal 12 gauge #8 shot 25 box for just about 8.50 a box (got a 250 pack so a little unsure the exact price per 25 box). Blazer 115 and 124 9mm was 24 cents a round with shipping and tax since I bought full cases. 5.56 PMC xtac 62 grain was 45 cents a round if you bought a case or 50 cents a round if you bought 20 round boxes. My wallet is crying, but availability and pricing is unlikely to get better in the current climate, and the fall season of the next year could cause even more issues on those fronts.
Im glad I bought around 200 shells of .410 a few years back and hardly used any yet. Bought most of my powders for reloading back a few years ago too, so I think Im covered during this next wave of ammo shortage. Good updates your giving here-
@hagman1077 Start checking for primers. My house is used as reloader central by my accomplices I mean friends, everyone can find powder or bullets. But primers here in Canada, are rare and overpriced
I bought most of my primers- LG/SM Rifle and LG/SM Pistol a few years back as too and also got a shit load of caps for my black powder @@PlayingWithFireOutdoors
Santa was good to me this year. I got not only 100 shells of 12 ga target loads but I also got 2 x boxes of 50 rnds of 9mm fmj also for target practice!
Some of us lucky people have a father who has been reloading for over fifty years and who has given there kid a lifetime supply of high quality ammo and we are so grateful not have to worry about a ammo shortage.
Doing the same. Picked up a case of 9 today for $250 out the door and some 5.56. The 5.56 was expensive and that 9mm price won’t be around much longer. Between the Summer of 2022 and right now has been the time to buy. I don’t think we’ll see prices that low ever again.
@@John5.56 yes that would be correct. And I did get I think around 18 20rd boxes .. .. that was an excellent price. Normally I think those are around 14$ to 16$ a box .. also academy has the monarch brand 9mm for 11.99$ a 50rd box. That's decent considering 9mm has skyrocked I. The past couple years.. also they had my Hornady black HPBT 75 grain. Also the 62 grain those not HP but an excellent defensive round . Highly recommend. Any Hornady black in any caliber is an excellent choice...imo.
Bass Pro/ Cabela's had the Aguila 500 pack for 24.99(5 cents a round) for the past 6 weeks. If you were able to order it online on Mondays during December you got an additional 10% off (22.50 for 500 rounds-4.5 cents a round). I noticed you shoot a 350L, they had the same deal at 10% off so it brought the price down to 20.67 a box of 20. I rarely buy ammo from them anymore but occasionally they have great sales.
All I bought yesterday was 36gr mini-mags, 10.30 out the door...even one box adds up...i wanted to buy 2, but the missus wanted her eggnog milkshake, oh well...
I got 100 round box of the winchester target 9mm, and 3 more 100 round boxes of the winchester m152 9mm. I don't think I have to worry about 22lr for awhile. I have bunches of various 20 gauge bird shot sizes. But what i do need is some 20 gauges slugs and buckshot. I'll probably be moving to a remote spread In PA next year where there's alot of black bears and I figure the 20 gauge with slugs and buckshot would be ok for bear defense
Nice haul for end of the year...
Thanks for sharing n God bless brother
I'm 67 ,miss the good old days
22 lr was 79 cents

Try grabbing the boxes at the very back instead of the front of the shelf, see if you don't start getting the full 150rnds.....
Sadly I think you're right

I'm going ammo shopping on Saturday.. got about 550$ to blow..
Awesome!!!
Depending on where you live and what caliber you’re looking for you might get 2 MAYBE 3 boxes LOL

Oh man I'm jealous! You could get a gun and ammo.
I been finding 410 online academy has been having a great price and shipping is decent
I bought 3 20 round boxes a few days ago, 60 rounds total for $66.67. I bought two 50 round boxes today, 100 total for $39.99 each. Not too bad.

100% I put a couple online orders in last week.
And yet in Canadaland the Aguila is 8+ a 50 rd box

Hopefully you have primers. They were sold out everywhere in my entire tri state area lol.

Dang you found some 410 man I've been looking for some of that for about 2 years now.
Cabelas is expensive on ammo.
100%
I don't do online. I got to have it in my hands after I pay. Yea maybe a bit more but at least it's in my possession.
I like buying in-person as well
Looking good brother
My local pawnshop has had frontier bthp for 10.99$ per 20. That's actually a very good deal at the current prices.
Good deal right now for sure!°
The 5.56/223 loaded with the hornady projectiles? If so snag them up they’re solid rounds.

I don't like ordering on line, to much of a paper trail..
Same here
Why do you not reload? Every shell is good for a couple of re uses.
Why do you assume I don't reload? Lol
Mad Marine on his channel also talk about it
Never heard of him
@@GunActivities365 He talks about ammo prices online every week.
@@1945tigers sweet! I don't pay too much attention to other people. Just do my own thing but I'll watch some here and there.
Next Friday is payday for me, going hunting for some 410, 45LC, 44 mag, and 30-30.

I wish I would have known about that haha. I don't even look at their site online much.
thats a good deal gonna get some
🇦🇺😎👍Next time you buy the Herters , weigh the boxes in the store so you don’t get robbed

that Agila is 4.6 since around on ammo seek want to look into it
Can you make a video on your favorite budget rifles or builds you have??
I will get to that! That's or sure something I want to do
