Cheap 7.62 at Academy

[Moezilla]

Academy is having another one of those, unlisted in-store sales that just started this week. Monarch 7.62 is running at $2.99 a box which comes out to $150 for 1k rounds.

Wow, that's 50 bucks cheaper than I can get it for online. Thanks for the tip!

Would this be 7.62x39 or 7.62x52 (.308) ammo ?

How good (or bad) is the quality of Monarch?....

Can it be used at an indoor range? They hit the magnet to my Wolf ammo and told me I couldn't shoot it there. That was at Target Masters in Garland (do not really like them there anyway).

Blue Box, Green Box, Steel cased, brass cased??

[blacktop]

Blue box with steel case. Functions fine in my 59/66 SKS. Dirty, but cheap practice ammo!

Which specific academy ?

Looks to be chain-wide. Our local store got 28 cases unloaded Wed. morning and it was all gone by noon. One guy bought 10 cases (500 rounds per case).

With our local tax it works out to be $0.161/round.

I go by twice a day (live close) to try to catch the next shipment.

I keep buying what gets put on the shelf. Sure would like to get my hands on a few cases...I'm getting tired of carrying out loose boxes in plastic bags. OTOH I'll keep doing it until I am stocked up.

The Academy in Lewisville had some in stock this afternoon. I did not buy much, and just got 15 boxes so I could fill my AK magazines and have a little extra. Unfortunately me and the wife are having to cut back on spending right now so I can not pick up a couple of cases right now.

[pbwalker]

They are chock-full of this @ the Academy at 410 and Military Dr in San Antonio.

Picked up 1000 rds just before closing Saturday night.

[BambooShoots]

I've picked up a few cases of this myself.

But I'm going broke spending on other stuff including more AK mags, AR mags, .223 ammo, etc before the elections.
