Yeah… those figures might be outdated. Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t 5.56 basically the same as a
.223? If so Cabellas has them in a price range of $.60-$2.20/pc. Not that the price difference is what I’m correcting. What I intended to point out was that just because you can get ammo for $.23 doesn’t mean your actual cost is guna be $.23/pc. In my experience with cheap ammo you’re guna have at least 1 jammed per magazine on your best days. Unlike most things, you get what you pay for with ammo. I have 3 types of ammo for my AR. 1 cheap bulk box for making it rain lead at the range. 1 mid ranged box for actual use shooting coyotes, beavers and Coons. And the last ammo type are closer to the $2.20/pc price for when there is ever a scenario where I need to send 2 bullets through the same bullet hole from 500yds out. Lol half kidding but for real the bullet to bullet consistency for weight and concentricity of the $2.20 priced ammo to the .60 priced ammo is clear as day.
Read the link. Those were rough prices for the military, and the poster admits that the prices are a little out of date. He’s not referring to what you’d pay at a sporting goods store.

Did you even read my post or did you stop at the 5th word lol.
I read the whole thing about how much ammo costs at retail for an individual consumer.

I can guarantee you’re not coming close to the bulk buy per-item discount the military gets
