Ammo prices look to have bottomed out in February and March so it may be time to stock up.  A common question is how much Ammo do I need?  Here is a scientific answer to that question:

Prices remain higher than 2019 levels due to the inflation from massive government spending and printing money.  When more money is printed, it is worth less. Inflation is a hidden tax where the government gets (prints) more money at the consumers expense (inflation). The best price found was: https://bulkmunitions.com/gun-store/9mm-115-gr-fmj-pmc-9a-1000-rounds/ at $0.219 each, followed by $0.269 each at: https://southerndefense.com/winchester-white-box-9mm-115gr-fmj-bulk-range-pack-200rds/ 

 

The lowest 5.56 price was $0.41 from https://www.outdoorlimited.com/prvi-ppu-5.56x45mm-nato-ammunition-m193-pp52-55-grain-full-metal-jacket-20-rounds/  but at these low prices they may sell out fast.  For NATO quality 5.56, my preferred choice for many reasons, the best price was $0.50 each at https://www.natchezss.com/winchester-usa-lake-city-m193-rifle-ammunition-5-56mm-55gr-fmj-3240-fps-1000-ct.html  Shooting many different brands and types of ammo can result in lower accuracy.  For this reason, I prefer the NATO spec ammo for 5.56 in 55 grains.

 

Rim Fire 22 caliber ammo is a must have, for training, pleasure shooting and hunting small games.  It is cost effective and much better for training beginners than giving them a hand held cannon to shoot.  My kids start out shooting a BB Gun, around age 10, with close supervision, and then graduate to a 22 in a few years. At age 12, they are safely shooting metal targets with confidence.. Bing.... Bing.... Bing... Bing... Bing.... Bing... hitting every shot using a western style 6-shot revolver.  

At 7.7 cents per round ($0.07), you can buy 3,250 target rounds for $250 at: https://www.luckygunner.com/22-lr-40-gr-lrn-federal-champion-auto-match-target-3250-rounds .  This is the same price as 10 boxes (500) AR rounds.   You can buy smaller quantities of good quality at $0.16 per round at: https://www.bulkammo.com/100-rounds-of-22-lr-ammo-by-cci-40gr-cprn
