I don’t know what the current going rate for 5.56 is these days but this stuff seems to be a bit pricey at $1/round, isn’t that what 338 Lapua was going for and that was considered to be pricey by some. I guess that quality comes at a price but I don’t think that I could justify $1 rounds every time I go to the range, then again it’s probably not being marketed towards people like who are looking for cheap plinking ammo.
