The ammo I ordered Tuesday showed up Thursday. They didn't waste any time.

DAC had 2 more available so I ordered both, 300 more rounds, for 900 total, Federal .223 52 grain JHP. That's enough for 30 mags full at 30 rounds each. The only listings I see for 50 grain .223 at Federal is Varmint & Predator at 3325 fps and 1227 ft/lbs at the muzzle. 20 and 50 round boxes available. It doesn't specify for 4-legged varmints and predators only, so it should put a hurt on 2-legged ones too. It says, "Mixed Grains & Bullet Types" but they're all JHP so far. I don't have any way to weigh them to figure out if there's more than one bullet weight. It's all shiny, new ammo. I checked a few in the last box and they were stamped FC 13 so it was loaded 12 years ago.

PSA had CCI Blazer 124gr 9mm FMJ for $115/500 rds a few weeks ago.
I ordered some and just got it in a few days ago.
They must've had a lot of orders because they usually ship pretty quickly and this time it took a week before it was even shipped.

Incidentally, it arrived the same day as our new 6x10 American flag to go on our new 40' pole the youngest son installed in place of the old 25' pole.

"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison
