Looking for cheap AR brass ammo, anyone able to help me out?

A lot of the cheap sites have horrible reviews on reseller ratings.com...
>>
You just missed a great deal with the 4th of July sale at PSA for $0.30/rnd for PMC brass.

Sucks that people caught on to Wolf Gold being such a good deal... so that it now isn't.

Dang. I'm considering just buying steel cased, but is steel really that bad to use in an AR?
>>
>>30570824
No
>>
>>30570874
No that it's not bad?
>>
>>30570824

The only negative things about steel case ammo is that the powder is a little dirtier and it will put more wear on your extractor. You can buy piles of extractors for the money you save shooting steel case though.
>>
>>30570824
Over thousands of rounds it'll wear your gun faster. If you're cool with rebarreling it it's the same cost as firing brass (not taking selling of the casings into account).

See LuckyGunner.com's test where they did 10k rounds of various steelcase through identical ARs along with 10k rounds of brass through another and compared.

If you're in Kentucky northern I've got some m855 and some American eagle (55gr) I'd be willing to let go for 25 Cpr.
>>
>>30570905
Correct. Shoot away.
>>
>>30570808
PMC is shit.

Get Wolf Gold or American Eagle (only when AE is on sale)
>>
>>30570943
they also fired them as fast as they could, do you do that with your thousands of rounds of ammo?
>>
>>30570928
Or you could simply reload if you are going to be shooting piles and piles of ammo. Brass case, cleaner and much better accuracy for the same price per round as steelcase
>>

Is this a challange?
>>
>>30573006
Doesn't change that the steel barrels saw significantly more wear than the brass ones, both were shot quickly.
>>

>the steel barrels saw significantly more wear than the brass ones

How the fuck does the casing influence barrel wear? The casing is not what goes flying down the barrel.

Nigga, steel case uses steel jackets with either a copper wash or a thin plate.

I think you need to shoot more varieties than Tula, man.
>>
>>30573497
True, though unless you can teleport or work from home your off time isn't making much money. Also reloading is fun. For me. Therefore it has to be fun for everyone else.
>>
>>30573006
This is correct. The life of your barrel depends heavily upon how fast you shoot. If you're a fast shooter your barrel will wear out sooner than if you pause a second and let the gun cool down after a couple of magazines.

Your barrel can last for many 1000s of rounds if you treat it well.
>>
>>30573477
Barrel extension maybe?
>>
>>30573515
I assume the majority use steel jacket. Regardless just read the damn study they clearly state they use bisexuals.
>>
>>30573621
>bisexual
Meant bi-metal jacket fucking degenerate phone, stop being a faggot.
>>
>>30573638
Mate your phone autocorrects to words commonly typed by the user
>>
>>30573659
Bimetal is not a word so it just autocorrects to whatever. I like teaching my phone new words, it's like a parrot that way. Fuck I'm lonely.
>>
>>30573477
Its the cheap projectiles used in them. Copper washed steel wears barrels relatively quickly.

Gunbot is your friend, OP.

I'm going to call them bisexuals from now on.

>>30573517
Not him but reloading 5.56 isn't worth it
>>
>>30574073
Define worth it? Not exactly match grade if you are using standard projectiles but much higher quality than steel case for about the same price.
