    That's 40 cents a round which works to 20.00 for a box of fifty.
    Does that include shipping? How does that compare to what you normally pay.

    Tough call. Two unknowns:
    Shipping cost factor
    Buyers "gotta have" factor

    If you buy it, you'll have it!..(no gamble)

    If you wait for that better deal to present itself...(gamble)

    Opinion: There's only one way to get buyers' remorse..and that's by buying the damn thing!! And if you don't buy it, you'll wind up spending the money on something foolish, like rent, food, etc. Life's too short! Get off y-rass and do it!!!!

    Best, Joe

    EDIT:
    Armed with further information (Item posted below) my post above has little merit due to the fact that there's over three thousand dollars at stake. Sorry. When I posted, I had incomplete information. Joe

    Hello Rifle Mike . If this is all one lot number of White box with red label or even Brown box that is marked 45ACP match and is a known good lot# and you shoot CMP matches This would be a very good BUY. If you give me the lot number on the ammo I might be able to give you some detailed advice. I have records from 1972--2005 with the lot number of all the ammo that was issue on the line At Camp Perry national matches and also given to the state pistol teams during this time frame Some was better then others .The Military teams got the best lots and everyone else got the rest. If you just want plinking ammo then gun-show ammo can be had cheaper. The different in a match pistol in a ransom rest at 50 yards may be 2-3 inches at 50 yards with good ammo and 8+ inches with normal ammo . But at 25 yards with same gun in same rest match ammo will be about one inch and normal ammo will be about 2 inches. In other words match ball ammo will only help at long distance and then you also need to be a good pistol shot with a good accurate pistol.
