one of the local gun shops is selling the last of his 8mm for 2.98 a box of 20. it looks like he has less than 1000 rounds and i dont have anything that shoots 8mm but i think it might be to good a price to pass up but i am not shure where 8mm prices are hovering. thanks john

huh, i will look around some more. i am kicking myself for not picking up all the 11 cent turk 8mm at kcr in october. even as i left i was saying to myself that i just couldn't believe that i was leaving it behind.
i just had no way to transport it. well that and spent a huge sum of loot on the m16 that day, so i was a bit gun shy about spending money.

I think i will go back tomorrow and buy it up.I think it is a 1200 round case like 3/4 full, now who has 8mm barrels a fue months ago the same shop sold me 2 sa 140 round battle pacs for 20.00 each and the rest of his loose 20 round boxes for 6.50 each it was like hitting the ammo lottery

Do you mean you want Reeeeeally corrosive? Because last I heard, its all corrosive. The only 8mm non corrosive I've seen are the two boxes of boxer primed hunting ammo I bought last year.

I picked up 26K rounds of yugo at 119.00 a case this past summer. That is a good price if you just want some SHTF ammo or for a later 8mm conversion.

Think again. Try a tin.... and it had to be well over a year ago. Besides, Sportsman's Guide has never offered cases of anything that cheap by the case. Best deal ever was the Turk from Ammunitionstore.com at $39 a case in quantity and that was years ago. We bought it by the pallet.
Your right it might of been $39.00 a CASE, It was May or June of 2006, It was by the case. My brother in law lives right by the store in MN, I sent him $86.00 and he picked me up Two wooden boxes with two tins in each one. I have no reason to lie about it, It's a fact.

That's about the right timeframe, Century and IO were just starting to raise their prices about March-April. I got my last pallet from Century about then.... Yugo at $45 a case delivered.
By the way. We don't accuse anyone of lying here. We take the high road and call it bullshitting. Commonly done after shooting over a brewski or two.

The FNH that Samco has is supposed to be non-corrosive and it's definitely cheaper than buying new commercial ammo.Do you mean you want Reeeeeally corrosive? Because last I heard, its all corrosive.

One thing I have noticed on these recent ammo threads, is the fact that everyone states case of this and case of that, but unless your all up on the ammo terminology for every country of origin, I think its easier when people state how many ROUNDS PER CASE they are talking about.....
That being said, I picked up many CASES of yugo ammo at sportsmansguide last year for $99 a case. A case of 900 rounds. 900 rounds sealed in a tin in a wooden box. So anyways, thats my lil ammo story. I know turk ammo is usually 1200 rounds to a CASE, so that deceiving too.....
