New to pistols!

I need some cheap round to hold me over until I start reloading. I am working on breaking in my new Kimber Ultra Carry II. I guess I am hoping there is a decent bulk FMJ that I can get for cheap!

I don't have a problem cleaning my gun. I will be cleaning it after every shooting with this new gun, and I actually need some more practice so dirty rounds aren't that bad.

Yout link doesn't go anywhere. If you found it that cheap, I'm gonna order a couple of thousand rounds for plinking. I have been paying $18 for 50 rounds!!!

codybrown...I think he's talking about bullets (projectiles) not loaded rounds. I think...

If you are planning to do a lot of shooting, I would recommend getting into reloading some day.
Even with the prices rising, I'm still only paying around $6.50 a box, for my .45ACP reloads.
$6.50 per box is much cheaper than $130.00 per 500 rounds, which comes $13.00 per box plus shipping etc.
Reloading is a hobby that goes hand & hand with shooting.

Sorry Bushy,
I just had a root canal on a tooth, so I'll blame it on the pain meds.

I just looked at his post again Bushy-- wtf

Along with the meds, I must have had my head you know where yesterday also. Laughing
