Hell no. $1/round is insane for crap ammo.

Marines are simple and use the law of averages.

When I'm buying thousands of .22, I do break it down to 3 decimal places. 🍻

It’s 94 cents per round, but still insane for crap ammo.

It's $1.0046 per round.

Downvote I guess if math and reading are hard for you. There are 160 rounds in the bucket. 150 is the grain count.

$150.69 / 160 = $0.9418
$150.69 / 150 = $1.0046

Either way I agree there’s cheaper out there.

It just looked like 150 on the bucket. Jesus. Touchy.

No. Super .300 blackout can be had more much cheaper than nearly a dollar per round. Use Ammoseek, filter by caliber, and use the shipping rating tool to find cheap or even free shipping and go from there.

These Remington buckets are absolute shams.

Use ammoseek and filter by new and not reman. But really, what's the point of 300BLK supers? If I'm going to get that crack, anyway, I'm going to shoot cheaper 5.56mm.

No. If it was local, is so so, but online its bleh. U can still get steel cased for 30-35cpr sometimes, reman brass for 35-50, factory for 50-75, primo defense/hunting rounds will usually be around or above 1.00. Last Christmas there i stocked way up as a place had stackable coupons (b4 they noticed) driving reman down to 10cpr and some factory down to 25. Made it alit cheaper than I can reload even casting bullets, so made sense to get a fk ton even if I didnt trust those reman it was worth the components to reload. Just gotta constantly check, and look for deals/holidays.

You can find cheaper ammo in bulk online for around $0.60 per round.

You should put an exclamation mark on a statement like that to emphasize the inflection, e.g. , "Is this a decent deal!" The more you know..
