.223/5x56 steelcore

**NikeBauer21** · September 22nd, 2009, 07:49 AM

Ok, I searched for what I was looking for, but only found a bunch of closed classifieds, and some other things. So if there is an existing topic buried somwhere, please forgive my ignorance...

Does anyone know where I can pick up some .223/5x56 steelcore ammo in NEPA, or central PA area? I have seen some a few places online, but by the time you finish with shipping and such, it's hardly worth it. So I figured I would just try to pick some up in person. I was looking at some guns shows and found plenty of 7x62 but no 5x56.

If anyone can help, I appreciate it..

I'll have to check it out when I get home.. can't get on it here at work.

NikeBauer21, I know that you were looking to buy local... but that website that NightRocker linked has some damn good prices for steelcore ammo and regular ammo. Good link NightRocker! Thanks. Rep sent. If I didn't reload my own, I would have already placed an order. For 1000 rds of Remington 62 gr steelcore shipped to zip 17815 is $435.50 out the door. That's not bad at all. Here's the link (to the temporary shopping cart):

EDIT: The link above did not work, so here is the product, to check the shipping prices to where you're at, just add it to your car and go to the checkout... although I doubt there will be any difference in shipping costs between where I'm at and where you're at.

Thanks! I'll be sure to check it... In the end, I will probably end up just buying online anyway...

I like to buy local whenever I can as well. I hate paying the shipping charges and then having to wait... plus I like supporting my local shops. But sometimes you get stuck buying online anyhow.
