Just ordered one of these cans and thought the price wasn't too bad given current prices. Just wanted to share.

Wow is that a good price? I got 1000 of the same 5 months ago for $250

That's a lot of money for plinking ammo. I bought 500 rounds of Zinc coated Steel cased ammo for around $132 plus got free shipping, so if I bought 1000 rounds of the stuff it would be around $265. I shot close to 300 rounds of the stuff through my Colt 6920 without one failure, check it out:

I try not to shoot steel cased ammo through my ARs.

Brass cased ammo always costs more than steel, but you can reload brass or trade it in to some reloading companys.

Its great ammo I really like it. Im just glad I bought what I did when I did. I run stell cased stuff threw my Spikes and Wesson and it loves it. Just may sit on the brass cased for a rainy day.

I did a lot of research and found no proof that steel cased ammo does damage to firearms. I also ran several hundred steel cased rounds in both 9mm and 223 without issue. I also have no interest in reloading so that's a non issue to me.

^^^^^ Ditto...my AKs, SKSs and M4 all love the crappy Bear or Wolf steel-cased ammo. Shoot the livin' crap out of it. No jams, misfeeds or dead ones. Plinkin' is for steel, in my mind. (Just keep (all of) your weapons CLEAN.)

That being said, I do have (a lot of) brass for a rainy day.
