You have GOT to be kidding me! $65 for a 325 pack of Federal Auto Match ammo? Really? In what freakin' universe does that make sense?
I can buy it at Cabela's in Huntsville for $22.99. With my .mil discount, and the round-up for conservation education, I'm out the door for less than 50 bucks for two boxes. It's worth the gas to drive 50 miles to pick up a couple boxes. If I hit the package store on Redstone while I'm there, I've pretty much covered the cost of the gas to get there.

Ordering from Widener's is pretty straight forward. Every so often the IMI ammo goes on sale for a price I can't pass up. The UPS guy with a bad knee gave me a hard time after the last order.

Honestly, I get most of my ammo from Champion's Choice or International Shooter's Service. But I'm buying .22LR match ammo by the case. You can get very reasonable prices from dedicated target shooting suppliers by the case.

Widener's has now moved into the "no buy" zone. They want $10.25 for 50 rounds of CCI standard velocity, lead nose .22 LR.

I just read on the CMP forum that Widener's was purchased by Lucky Gunner, another overpriced on-line store.Durham68 wrote:New owners.
