What is a great price for new 9mm ammo, not reloaded, out the door, or delivered, all fees and taxes included?

Let me preface by saying that I haven't bought factory ammo in a few years but I do track prices online. Best I've seen lately is about $16 plus shipping for non reloads.

Log in to Gunbot. I have 500 rounds of Geco 124 grain 9mm coming from Palmetto for $13.99/50 with $18.00 shipping so about .32 cent a round. not fantastic but not bad for these days.before the SHTF $9.00 boxes was not uncommon.

I was gonna say < $10

I also bought some of this special. Have you fired Geco before?

No I haven't but after some research it is supposedly a European manufacturer loaded to NATO specs so hotter than standard target ball ammo.I'm stocking up now before Hillary decides to announce a run for Pennsylvania Ave.

erm..  this would be an unheard of deal right about now...

 

at this point, if you can find a box for less than $15, its a decent deal these days...

SAAMI spec for 9mm Parabellum is 35,000 psi and NATO is 36,500. +P goes as high as 38,500 IIRC. If you're using the NATO ammo in a military handgun (M9, Glock, SIG, etc) you really don't have to be concerned.

Midway has CCI Blazer Brass for $12.99 right now, not sure on shipping.

I checked before ordering just because I was concerned about the load harming my CZ but according to several sites my 75b is designed to handle hot loads and only then I ordered. Thanks for the specs.

I just ordered some 9mm ammo yesterday.

Read some decent reviews online about Greco and the price was right at palmetto so I figured I'd give it a try.

 

1000 lawman 124g TMJ - $409 shipped (~$20 a box) - from luckygunner

250 Geco 124g FMJ - $81 shipped (~16 a box) - from palmettostatearmory

I've used about 500 rds of  MFS that was manufactured by Geco on my Glock and CZ. The ammo burns clean. I bought them at around $10 per 50 rd box before the madness started. I would use them again if they sell them cheap.

 

BTW, I've used some of the MFS/Geco brass for reloading. The primer pockets are a little tight but they work fine.

 

If you want cheaper ammo, start reloading.

Until distributors charge shops less the $10 a box don't plan on seeing it on shells for that.

Thanks to everyone, seems to be around $16 at your door is the magic number, give or take.

pre-shtf prices, i was paying $10.42 p/ 50 pk at Walmart   (federal maroon box)

CageFighter: am curious. Where was the Walmart that you formerly purchased ammo at? I was under the impression that Walmarts in NJ did not sell ammo.

 

I also have an order into Palmetto State Armory for 9mm and 22LR.   This is my second time ordering from them.  Would be good if those of you with orders pending with PSA would msg me.

I'd be curious to compare how our respective orders are progressing.  (Trying to not hijack this thread.)

I have been fortunate to not have needed to buy 9mm ammo for awhile, but as CageFighter notes, last year I was able to pick up cases of 1000 rounds shipped for $200-$220, which works out to $10-$11 per box.  Sigh...

Yes, around April of last year I got 1k rounds of S&B 9mm from SGA for $235 shipped and had some misgivings.......If I had only known....
