    Stock up while you can
    .223 was easily available in February 2020 at R189 per 20
    Now its R299 1,5 years later
    7,62x39 may also shoot up when new stocks have to be imported when the suppliers run low

    With the "hacked" ports authority being such a stuff up, all the stuff sitting onboard ships at the moment might get redirected, exacerbating the supply glut.

    There is plenty locally, and a lot more on the way. It may price a little differently based on exchange rate, but less so as a result of supply and demand

    I consider anything over 1000 rounds for handgun and rifle to be bulk, shotgun anything 250 rounds and over! What dealer do you use? Do you make use of group buying power?

    Cant see the US made stuff droping in price anytime soon since prices in the USA are similar even direct from manufacturer site (A Huge increase for them)
    Maybe there is hope for some European stuff, but seems last shipment from places like S&B included no .223 ??


    American Eagle XM .223 is $19.99 ( R291 ) for 20 from Federal direct for USA cutomers

    Typically through CHS or False Bay. No group buys
