TWGLADF 0 Posted October 28, 2006 Report Share Posted October 28, 2006 for those who want to shoot a 62gr hollow point. for those who love the bear ammo like i do. silver bear 62gr hollow point- $149.90 per 1000 rnds. thats only $2.99 per 20. like i've posted before the golden bear 62gr hollow points work perfect with my saiga. (golden bear & silver bear the same except for casing coating) alot more accurate that any 55gr ammo i've tried. and i love the "effects" of hollow points not to mention that you can use them to hunt with also. http://www.jgsales.com/product_info.php/am...roducts_id/1451 order it up guys. this is some damn good ammo for the price. don't believe that you willl find any 62gr hollow points for this kind of price. it will all depend on how much they charge for shipping. believe you have to call with your zip code. good luck guys!

Lifer 0 Posted October 28, 2006 Report Share Posted October 28, 2006 Well, I just got my 1000 round shipment of 308 yesterday and I just now ordered the 223. Shipping is a flat $25. Seems a little high but I ordered it anyway. Thanks for the "heads up"! Lifer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TWGLADF 0 Posted October 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 ouch! that is a little high. j&g has always been kinda high on shipping. the golden bear that i ordered was $155 for 1000rnds, but the shipping was only $10. i only paid $165 shipped. they emailed me a quote of $20 for shipping but their shopping cart calculated $10 and thats what they charged me. i didn't ask any questions. btw i didn't order the golden bear from j&g. it was from somewhere else.

HP for $149.97 and then you can get a coupon for $10 off making it $139+shipping. If you're a club member it comes out ot be $132+shipping. Shipping is usually $15.99 Edited October 30, 2006 by Deadeye008 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TWGLADF 0 Posted October 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 damn thats a pretty good price, but i don't mess with wolf anymore. it went bang everytime and the rounds look cool ( i love that grey poly coating look) but i don't think that it's as accurate as barnaul. at least none of the rounds i've ever fired were. besides, i like to fire HPs and SPs. can't stand to shoot FMJ. i like my "targets" to react when hit. not burn a hole right through it. also, 62gr is the way to go! the brown bear (laquered) was about $130 for 1000rnds plus about $10-$15 shipping for 62gr boat tail hollow points from the site that i ordered my golden bear from.

TWGLADF 0 Posted October 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 (edited) http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/AMM232-47490-67.html here we go again. $129 per 1000 with buyer club $136 per 1000 regularly not bad if you don't mind laquer coating. i've never in my history of shooting ak's and sks's had a single problem with laquer coating. i can see it affecting american made firearms like ar's and such with super tight match chambers but the ak and sks platforms were designed to shoot this stuff. i've dodged laquer b/c i've always had an alternative to choose from (silver bear, golden bear, wolf poly, etc). but if laquer was all i could get, you bet i'd be all over it!

Deadeye008 2 Posted October 31, 2006 Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 Hey TWGLADF, I've only ever shot Wolf out of my saiga. I'll have to try some barnaul stuff if you say its more accurate and it's about the same cost. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TWGLADF 0 Posted October 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 deadeye give barnaul a shot! most everyone thats tried both tend to prefer the barnaul. but hey, what ever fits your budget or is most easily accessable. good luck! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BurningDog 0 Posted November 1, 2006 Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 I just ordered 400 rounds from cheaperthandirt, shipping was $12. Shipping for 200 rounds was $10, so their shipping costs aren't directly proportional to the number of boxes you buy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
40bikes 0 Posted November 1, 2006 Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 TW. I try to avoid CTD because I'm from TX and have to pay the sales tax. I am a club member because sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do, I ended up getting 500 rds of .308 SP on your recomm. for $102 shipped. so my bullet budget is maxed out with Christmas coming. Can't seem to convince the wife and kids they need guns and ammo for Christmas anniversaries and birthdays. bikes Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HA HA! i can understand about the CTD issue you have. i try to avoid certain companies/shops due to various reasons but sometimes you just have to do it. hey if it saves me money or is too good to pass up then what the hell. $102, OUCH! those taxes really do eat you up. i've really slowed down on my bullet consumption. now i'll shoot about 5 boxes in a weekend. i used to shoot a case in a weekend back when i was new to all this. man, where the hell did i get the money? i'm making more than double the money than what i did back then! good luck guys!

AKMIKEFMJ 0 Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 TWGLADF..... I have shot Wolf and Barnaul hollowpoints and softpoints. It has been my experience that the jackets on these bullets are steel and do not expand. Have they changed the bullets ??? Do they expand for you ??? Thanks.....

TWGLADF 0 Posted November 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2006 ak mike the bullets are a bi-metal copper/steel. for some reason the bi-metal wolf does not expand. however, the bi-metal barnaul fragments violently. don't know if the wolf jacket is harder or what. all i know is the results of numerous rounds fired into wet newsmedia and green pine tree trunks. the silver bear 308 SP jackets mushroom nicely. they are bi-metal. inparidel it was from bigdogsammo but they recently went up on their prices. the better deal seems to be the brown bear from CTD if it's still the same price. good luck!
