"Inexpensive" .45 230g FMJ in Philly/NJ/DE?

[JerryOnly]

I was wondering if anyone could point me to relatively well-priced 230g FMJ .45 ammo an hour or less from Center City Philadelphia? I got 250 rounds of Magtech from MidwayUSA for about $18/box (not including shipping), and Targetmasters offered $19/box (not sure which brand). I know that the 1911 guys are talking of metal prices dropping, but I sure as heck haven't seen it yet. Any of you guys know where I can get Federal/Magtech/Speer Lawman/whatever brand for about $17-18/box (or cheaper)? I don't mind taking the bike an hour or so as long as I can stock up on cheap FMJ! Thanks.

Oh ps. After reading this thread, I'm not looking for Winchester white box. http://www.pafoa.org/forum/ammunitio...-problems.html

Try your local Dick's Sporting Goods at $15.98/box (or 14.98/box if you by 10) for Remington UMC 230gr FMJ. If you're south of Philly a little, there's one just north of Wilmington, DE that has it.

Oh that's a good question--is there no sales tax on the ammo in DE?

[unclesam099]

Sorry, forgot to say that on the original post. Correct, NO TAX on ammo in DE!

NJ stores may not sell you "handgun ammunition" without NJ paperwork. I saw a sign to that effect last time I was in a Dick's in NJ. You might want to call and check if you are planning to head out there.

That is correct, you cannot buy handgun ammunition in New Jersey without a firearm ID card, which is what you need to purchase a gun in New Jersey.

You might want to call Kings Shooter Supply in KOP. They have pretty good prices on ammo.

Unfortunatly Wally World might be the best bet for cheap ammo.

All right, I'll give King's and Dick's in DE a call and see who has what. Thanks for the advice guys!
