I'm not currently reloading right now and need a bunch of range fodder for .45s. Thinking 230 gr. fmj (or 200 gr., anyone shooting this?).

I'm partial to mail order as it's tax free (so 10% more buying power but offset by shipping, unless it's free).

Anyone got a favorite supplier. I've been buying Freedom Munitions, new not reman. and right now it's about 305 cents per round plus $10 flat rate shipping. Anyone getting better than this?

(I'm in Bothell and don't mind driving a bit for a good deal.)

That mailchimp one is a good price for the federal aluminum case. 1000 rounds at Wally World would be minimum $275.

I've always shot brass case...to reload. What are the pros and cons of aluminum cased ammo, besides no saving the cases? And price.

the wrcc 45 is way to expensive. shouldn't spend more than 27 cpr for new, reman at 30 cpr is way to high.

I've had good luck with the lax ammo new manufactured .45. Skip the reloads though, they download them significantly compared to the new stuff. Free shipping for first time customers.

500 rounds of 230 gr for $113 + about $15 shipping. I am also in Bothell and it gets to my front door in about 2-3 days.

Far from the cleanest ammo I've ever shot but they are brass casings, FMJ's and I have only had two failures related to the round itself in about 2000 rounds.
