I have been told that to get any kind of better deal on ammo, that you would need to buy it by the train car load.
I think it would mostly depend on what kind of lowers people would want and would be willing to accept for the price.That may be an accurate statement. We should be able to do a group buy on something like AR lowers or something. All we'd need is a dealer or shop to volunteer to help us out, presuming they had a good relationship with one of the manufacturers...

I talked to Brad at CDC, and he quoted me a decent price, out the door, for 8+ lowers. I haven't had the chance to pick any up yet, but he could be an option, depending on what lowers people would want.

A group of my hunting friends have done group buys from Black Hills and Wisconsin Cartridge, getting accurate ammo at good prices, and having quality brass to reload. We usually look at 10K rounds plus of the following calibers, depending on how many guys respond to the purchase, .222 / .223 / 22-250 / .204 / 22 Swift. I'll post here when we're doing it again, usually the January/Feb time frame. I would be interested in an ammo purchase for 10mm or 40cal for the Glocks.
Well why dont we see what everyone is intrested in mainly to see if we can get a group buy going like lowers or ammo or optics first everone meet in the middle and see what suits most people best and try to get something together to see how it goes the first time around then we could possibly see about a sec and third order for other things
"Thanks for the reply, 223 would interest me but I hate to wait until next year when everything in the gun world may be on hold. Are other calibers available?"
4Sarge, I'll order another 2000 rounds of either 22-250 or 223 a few months early to get the ball rolling, and call my hunting group and see who else wants to join on this order.
What else are you interested in?
Who else want to do a 1000 pcs buy (minimum) of 22-250 or 223 in the 55 grain V-Max by Labor day, 2008. Let's see what kind of numbers we can see in the next 3 weeks.
I'm guessing we're just old now. I think the "texting generation" is the culprit. It's hard to find a graceful way to tell them that their posts are difficult to read and that lack of concern for an attempt at punctuation makes them look, well less than intelligent.The "." button is your friend...
I think a PM is a good start and can go public if need be later.
