geno0506 Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Hello all, Haven't shot or broke in my new Benelli LE 11721 yet! I know it's a lost cause but any one have any idea of places on the web I may find some Federal or other decent brands, slugs and 00 buck! Any other ammo to run through break in! Bulk if any! Thanks Quote
electric7 Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 seems like you have to test it out with whatever you can find right now 1 Quote
Florian Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 plenty of ammo around here...just gotta look in person, online isnt telling the whole story. 1 Quote

Gmcrigger2007 Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 Shop by me is asking almost 700$ for a case of 9mm CCI 115gr and almost 600$ for 500rds of Federal 5.56. It’s insane the prices their asking. Quote

Evolution Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 (edited) I just looked at a couple of online retailers that I have used in the past and saw that a single box of 50 range type ammo in .45 ACP or 9 MM Federal ammo is listed for 78$. I never have given in to the old capitalist mantras of "supply and demand" or the "the market sets the price." To me it has always been just an excuse used to justify price when people become desperate for something to rip people off and make huge profit margins while the desperation lasts. F them!

GTTom Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 (edited) I going to test my M4 out at the range tomorrow after installing some mods. I hit 4 local gun stores today looking for 12ga slugs. Only found two boxes of Federal at the last small mom and pop store I went to. And they would only sell me one of the boxes?. Going to be a short test tomorrow.......

Gmcrigger2007 Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 I forgot to mention in my last post about the shop with the expensive ammo ,that he also an M4 That i would guess is a LE model. It has the fully adjustable stock & plus 2 extension. I didn't even bother to ask how much he was asking for that. I think he caters to a lot law enforcement people. 1 Quote

Anjin-san Posted October 19, 2020 Posted October 19, 2020 In Bass Pro last weekend, the shelves of rifle and pistol ammo completely cleaned out 100% - even oddball hunting cartridges probably only chambered for bolt actions. No slugs or buckshot. But, 12GA bird shot/turkey/field/target loads, all you want, shelves of it... lol I've noticed plenty of birdshot in stock everywhere else around here too at regular prices. I guess nobody thinks birdshot at close range will deter bad guys. If someone asked me right now what gun to get for home defense I might suggest a 12GA pump or auto that will cycle light loads based solely on the fact that I know they would be able to get ammo for it -- birdshot -- not the best but not nothing.

electric7 Posted October 19, 2020 Posted October 19, 2020 How about a 3in 1500fps game load? That kicks like a motha. That would have to hurt. Quote
BigJoe365 Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 Federal 00 buck or slugs are running at 2 bucks a shot +/-. You know what they call a shotgun without ammo ? A bat. I bit my tongue and paid the fiddler. $499.00 for 250 rounds of Federal deep penetrator slugs. Because I didn't have any. 1 Quote
aznwhip Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 Wtf, I haven't checked in a while as I have fair amount of reserve, but at $2 a shot, I'd sell my stash of Federal 00. Quote
GTTom Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 I found some ammo on line at Federal. I added 10 boxes to my cart. During checkout the card amount reduced to 6 "available", then by the time I entered my credit card number the amount dropped to "0- None Available"......? Quote

You may want to hold that thought. You could be buying them back at $3. the online stores show no stock because they are all getting top dollar on GB. Quote
