value of 5.56 M193 ball

[Keb]

I have some 1983 production Malaysian 5.56 loaded unfired ammo. What is a fair price?

I just bought some at $6/20. Thought it was a pretty good price. Not fantastic, but cheaper than most.

I've got some I bought years ago and it's some of the most accurate surplus 55 gr ball I've shot. Don't remember the price. But if it seems fair, I'd get it. I've been tempted to try some of the 7.62 that's out there now. The deal roadchoad got sounds pretty good.

I bought about 400 rounds off a guy on another board about 3 years ago - gave around $125 then, but I think I got a steal!

His was headstamped 1984. Good stuff!

Take a look at a sample of current prices here:

Federal XM193 is going for $299 + shipping at Natchez. That's the cheapest I'm aware of. Prices are going up on this stuff, as only a few months ago prices of $280 shipped were common.
