UPS dropped my ten boxes off on the back porch around 10:30 this morning.
Ordered the 11th and delivered on the 14th..... not bad....I've experienced way worse.

As a side note, I like how PSA wraps the ammo in plastic wrap. Never had any other shipper do that before.

I like that as well. My 10 boxes came yesterday, a bit after lunch. As a side note, today only they've got CCI Stingers for just $80.00 @ brick of 500. (.16 cents a round).

Well, I've got to get some of those. And Winchester White Box .223 Rem Ammo 55 Gr FMJ, 20rds for $11.99, instead of $19.99. 60 cents a pop is better than a dollar any day, and I don't recall ever having bad ammo of any kind from Winchester. Fiocchi .380 ACP 95gr FMJ Ammunition 50rds is $20.99, down from $29.39, so I'll probably grab 100 rounds.

The Deal of the Day is a PSA AR-15 Bolt Carrier Group 5.56 Full-Auto Nitride MPI not for $129.99, but $69.99. I'm getting one because my can cannon doesn't have one and I don't want to keep swapping BCGs. I should get a headspace gauge too, so I get the bolts in my other 3 uppers sorted once and for all.

PSA has PMC X-Tac 5.56 Ammo 62 Gr LAP 20rds for $9.99, so I took the WWB out of my cart and added 25 boxes of this, a Gas Block Genie, 4 knives, a 4 pack variety of Caliber Coffee, etc. All of my ARs have 1/7" or 1/9" twist rifling, so 62 grain bullets should work better. I think 2 are 1/7 and the other 1 is 1/9, and I don't have anything with a slower twist other than my Contender. I'm pretty sure it's only a 1/12" twist. PMC X-TAC 5.56 rounds contain the M855 penetrator bullet and are loaded with the SS109 steel core penetrator projectile under the full metal jacket. I think LAP stands for Light Armor Penetrator. Does anyone know for sure?

My penetrator is hard but doesn't go through armor.  :o  ;D

Fiocchi 22LR Sub-Sonic 40gr Ammo 50rds, $3.99. That's $4 off. I don't need sub-sonic ammo for anything, but I will be buying some Stingers while they're on sale.
