Cabela's Bulk Ammunition???

[Ship A'Hoy]

I just saw Cabela's is selling bulk ammo in .357SIG, .40S&W and .45ACP. It's only $59.99 for 300 rounds. I prefer name brand ammo for carry but at this price it would be good for the range. Anyone try this ammo for range/plinking use. Is it clean?

[DigMe]

My dad had some of the LRN. It was no more dirty than one would expect typical LRN to be. Personally though this doesn't seem like a great deal to me. Ammo can certainly be had for cheaper than this.

It's only the .357 sig that's $59.99 per 300. The .45 ammo is $75 for 300 rounds and the .40 is $53.

I thought I saw the WWB .45 at walmart for something like 18.00 per 100 so 75.00 for 300 isn't a deal. Maybe I am missing somethig though.

not too bad....if you don't reload. I've seen it a little cheaper here and there, but....well, I reload so I don't price bulk ammo much.

I put 250 rounds of their .223 through my Mini-14. It worked just fine. The stuff I used, and their .38s that I saw in their PA store were made by Ultramax.

I've used it in several calibers, and it's generally good range ammo. It is a little dirty, though.

Their .45 ACP was B-A-D: many misfires, inaccurate, dirty. I would NEVER buy it again.

[WhoKnowsWho]

I'd buy the stuff from www.miwallammo.com as I have had good luck with them.

I bought the 9mm 300 round bulk pack.

5 misfires and one round blew up my marlin camp carbine. (Damaged the bolt buffer spring and assembly)

I'll never buy that crap again

I bought four 50-round boxes of Remington/UMC 230-gr FMJs at my local Wal-Mart yesterday for $9.59 a box. Very nice, very clean ammo, better than Winchester White Box (WWB).

Makes that Cabelas reloaded bulk ammo at $12.50 per box for LRN ($13.33 for FMJ) plus shipping look like not such a good deal. :confused:

I second Miwalls ammo. Nice reloads but a weeee stinky.:o

[alcmaeon]

I've been shooting the Miwall 44 mag and after 1000 rounds I had one dud and the rest were full power and of decent accuracy. 3/4ths was the JHP but the other 250 was TMJ and the dud was a JHP.

I also just bought 1000 rounds of American eagle 230 grain JHP 45ACP from Miwall at a gun show for $189 so in my opinion the Cabalas isn't a good deal esp. with shipping.

I’ve used the .357 and .38sp (Cabelas) so far 600 rounds of each and never had a misfire. It’s as accurate as any other brands I’ve shot. I usually buy it when I’m in Dundee so I don’t have the shipping charges. It used to come in the used steel ammo boxes but they’ve switched to new plastic sealable ammo boxes which are a nice xtra. :cool:
