Whats the cheapest?

Whats the CHEAPEST price CENTERFIRE rifle ammo right now?

I'm thinking 5.45 X 39, which gives me an excuse to look at AK-74's.

I'm hearing from my surplus buff buddy that the cheap 5.45 won't be around much longer.

I would go with .223 and start reloading...

Why is expecting the price to go up?

 

[338Shooter]

I'll ask him. He said, but I forget why.

He said:

Bryan from AIM said it would.

They had an election in the Ukraine with a guy who I guess doesn't like the West. Some **** like that. IDK.

Bryan has 2mil rounds coming in tomorrow at $8/case increase that he's going to eat. The next round will be $20/case more.

I've been doing that for 30 years. There has to be something in a centerfire rifle cartridge cheaper than that.

Cheaper than .223? Uhhh I guess you could build a rifle in 9mm Luger...that's about your only option if 5.45 is going up.

Try the cheap steel cased .223 from academy. Works fine in my ar. He'll cheaper than dirt has Tula .223 for 4$ a box. I don't see how you could get anything cheaper.

i have an AK-74 clone and the ammo is pretty cheap when compared to other types....but my problem with it is the 5.45 doesnt have enough knock down power. im wanting to get another AK but in 7.62
