Cheap 223 ammo doesn't exist anymore. A month ago (I haven't checked lately) Sportsmans Guide had Brown Bear (made by Barnaul in Russia and identical to the steel cased Monarch ammo you can get at Academy) for a pretty good price. It is certainly not the best ammo out there, but it functions fine in my Ars. The cases do have lacquer on them, which can build up in the chamber of the gun, but that is not that hard to clean out. With the Obama election prices have soared and dealer stocks have dwindled to almost nothing, so buying online is probably your best bet.

When WalMart has them in stock I buy the Remington 100rd packs for $39.95 Seems like the best deal I can find for 100rds of reloadable brass.

Been there, done that, got a T shirt. Ammo wasn't as free as you might think. But, a good time was had by all. 
God is so good to me.

Remington brass .223 ammo for $39.99 per 100. Thats an awesome deal! I have never seen a price like that around the Walmarts where I live.

The ONLY 100 round boxes I have seen are the Federal 55gn. FMJ at Wal-Mart for the same price. Azle Wal-mart had them last week.
