That is very true, I order in minimum batches of 250 when there is a deal, more if they sweeten the pot. Same goes for when I buy locally. The stragety is to follow the best deal available to you at the time that you need it. Right now I have plenty of ammo from previous orders to use up, but if I come across a bargain . . .
For example 5-7 ammo is $21.99 per 50 at Ammo Bros, more at other stores. Plus tax and the total for 250 rounds comes to $118.19 locally. The same ammo costs me $114.75 on-line. The difference is that I have to wait for them to arrive, but I still have a couple hundred rounds from before.
