Just found 1240 rounds of M855 I bought in the before times. 18yo me was buying like crazy in 2017 and I just forgot about it until my parents recently asked me to move a bunch of my old shit out to my place. I've got>Two 500 round boxes of Winchester Green Tip M855>One 150 round "battle pack" of PMC M885. >Two random boxes of PPU M855 in those barely marked white boxesProblem is, I've been exclusively shooting Brazilian 55gr 223 and my target loads are 69gr Matchpoints I reload myself. POI is pretty significant at even 100yds when I tested 2 mags of the PPU through two of my ARs. Also even from a rest it's MOA is kinda shit. It's not enough to warrant rezeroing any of my nicer ARs. Plus, winter is almost here and I can't use M855 at the indoor range I have a subscription to. Also found my old PSA×Poverty Pony AR Pistol I can just SBR now. Should I make that my dedicated Green Tip Launcher?Should I sell it? Do boomers still pay the Green Tip Tax? Could turn out I accidentally made a good investment at 18.
>>65602195Just shoot it you faggot.
Just magdump at garbage, it's not the current meta, but still funner than a 50 year old stripper.
>>65602220Seems kind of wasteful, and nor do I have a place to mag dump garbage anymore. The only place where I can shoot more than a round a second is my local indoor range, but obviously M855 is banned there. If it's no good for practicing my marksmanship, and I can't even mag dump it at the range I frequent the most now. It's a question of keep it till I find another friend with a farm to dooomp it, shoot it at paper even though it shoots worse than the cheap ammo, or sell it to a boomer who's afraid it will get banned still.
>>65602297If it were me, I'd just rip it for fun. Then again I have access to a nice tract of land to fuck around on. For you? Maybe liquidating it to buy more of your preferred ammo wouldn't be a bad move. Or maybe just hand out little boxes of the shit as party favors
>>65602195>just found 1000 rounds I lost for nearly 10 years>also found my AR pistolYou should stop misplacing things.
>>65602195>what do?Have you fucked your mother yet? Try that.
>>65602304>Or maybe just hand out little boxes of the shit as party favorsI lost all my friends that shoot when I moved recently...
>>65602310Didn't misplace it per se, I just left it at my parents when I went to college and I never came back. Got a job immediately after and I left a bunch of stuff there.
>>65602195Just put it away as an emergency stash for really bad times, or at least hodl until whatever causes the next panic and sell it all at an insane price then. You can fit all that in two ammo cans at most, it's not like it's a huge waste of space.
>>65602332Yeah, but if I sell it for 50 cents/rnd then I can just buy more ammo at 45 cents/rnd which seems to be the current best 223 price I've seen recently. Not like I wouldn't replace it immediately.
It pierces some forms of body armor (UHMWPE plates) better than other 5.56 so I second the boog stash idea >>65602332
>>65602340>UHMWPE platesYeah, but how common are those? It won't penetrate the super common ceramic or steel plates a lot of people in a boog will be running.
>>65602350Increasingly, because the Chinese have subsidized PE production and a quick look at options from Jinwudun, Militech, and Gilliam will show they're pricing that shit to move. Chinese PE is the same price or less versus American fiberglass.Plates that are inherently drop immune, can space shots tighter than ceramic, and weigh less than two pounds each on the high end? Very attractive until you face M855.Gilliam is selling 2.5lb Helion RF1s for $250-300 a pair.
>>65602195Step 1: Stop posting about it on the internet.
>>65602220What the fuck is the meta for 556?
>>65602362Gilliam discontinued everything a few days ago because they're trying to go full American materials for an NIJ cert bid. Their RF1s are already sold out, Philly Trash Sniper from /gq/ got the last ones by emailing Gilliam himself to arrange a deal. Shit's fucking wild.
>>65602297>nor do I have a place to mag dump garbage anymoreSounds like you need to sell it and start a fund to fix that
>M855Is that the armor piercing stuff? You might want to save it for an invasion by China or something.
>>65602336Boomers were selling pallets of white box for $1.00/rd during the bidenpanic and good on them for it. people should have learned after whatever the last panic was.
>>656024628” bbls an a switch (frt) an 60 (coffin mag) gang
>>65602793And why can't you run m855 out of that?
>>65602462Doing Garand Dumb style shooting at targets 10 yards away while being try hard as fuck.
Get a Geissele Super Thicc upper, trigger kicker, pmag 40s and build an IAR.
>>65602506Gilliam tends to go back and forth on decisions. See how it pans out. The Helions sold quick because they're one third the weight of counterpart steel plates and not too much more expensive.Majority of civilian armor is still steel, only because guys like Tac Scorp, Highcom (supply running low), and Down Range can get you in the game for $100 a pair or less on sale.
>>65602195hold on to it nigger, trump slump 2.0 is ending in november so stock up now
>>65603130Shit nigga nah. Das 556
>>65602195Just put it in your safe you retard. That's the whole point of buying and stacking ammo, so you have it in the future.
>>65604399Another part of stacking is stacking deep. If I can sell it, I can get more bullets than what I've got. If I don't see a use case for the future, then what's the point of stacking it.
