    I have checked this several times, and can't figure it out. Is this a typo or something? Also, looks like the box in the picture says "Law enforcement ammo". Is this for LE only to purchase?

    Winchester Ranger .45 ACP RA45T 230 Grain JHP Ammunition - b - 500 Round Case
    I think the case amount should say 50 and is a box, not a case. Sloppy advertising at best. And you can purchase Range LE ammo. Also this is the previously manufactured Black Talon, just not black anymore. I have both and they are identical except for color. Can't have that evil looking Black Talon ammo now, can we?

    Well, the worse that can happen is they refuse the sale I guess.

    It would be nice if the guy had set up his automated emailer to be a bit more personal though.

    Looks like hes trying to unload all of his Hornady too. :D

    Actually, from my perspective the worst thing that could happen is you end up getting 1 box of 50, having paid $43.87, plus $5 shipping, for 50 rounds. That's not a very good deal at all.

    I just ordered some too. I ordered 2 500rd cases of the Winchester Ranger, and 1 200rd case of the Hornady.

    I figure, if it's a typo I just have them refund my money. The thing that caught my eye is that the original price is set at $438, but underneath that it says "sale price: $43." It's definitely not a typo on the round count, because they have a regular 50 listing too, and this one is listed as the bulk case. So I guess it's worth a shot... or 500 to be exact :):

    True that. I just bought it. Worst that happens is they call and say they messed up. Or maybe, they are running a really good sale on this stuff! :rockwoot:

    really... really....... really good sale :dunno:

    Me too, before I replied, even.

    We'll see what shows up at the door.

    Either way, not a bad price, and in the event that they did mislabel it and still charge me a tenth the true value, I'll somehow try to sleep at night. :):

    While that may be true, that's why I took a screen shot of the order and confirmation number. If 120rds show up at my down instead of 1200rds, I'll be making a call to Ammunition Depot for a refund.

    Just put in an order myself for:

    Wolf 7.62mm x 54R 148 Grain FMJ Ammunition - b - 500 Round Case - $12.87

    Hornady .45 ACP 200 Grain JHP Extreme Terminal Performance Ammo - b - 200 Rounds - $19.97

    Winchester Ranger .45 ACP RA45T 230 Grain JHP Ammunition - b - 500 Round Case - $43.87

    With $15.00 flat rate shipping my order came to $91.71 and my receipt shows I ordered the numbers indicated above. So hopefully I'll get really lucky.



    I'll report back when I know more.

    Just tried ordering the 500rd bulk pack for $43.87. What the hell? May as well give it a go. Worst case I'll just cancel the order. Took screen shots of the order pages, too.
