I just went to Dick's in Plymouth (awful idea, I know) for some .45 ACP. As usual, we poked around the Lodge area trying to find/waiting for an associate, after about 10 minutes I had to go out back and ask one of the women if there was anyone in the lodge this evening, she came out and started yelling for him.
He burst through the doors yammering something about packing up guns...anyway, I digress.
They had 3 boxes of Remmington UMC for $19.99 each, and a couple boxes of Ultramax reloads for $64.99. I figured the bulk packs of Ultramax would be cheaper since they're reloads and...a bulk pack. So I ask the guy how many rounds are in the box of Ultramax and he tells me 150. I then inquire about the count in the UMC, and he says 50 each. Needless to say, I went with the 3 boxes of Rem UMC for $62.96.
The Ultramax would have cost $68.24 for the same quantity of bullets, but they're reloads.
So where's the value in the bulk pack of reloads? Or was the guy misreading the round count on the bulk pack?
