Same for spam cans of 7.62x54R - I've never seen them for sale anywhere but I can buy them from CTD for $90 shipping all day long.

If there's a better way/place to buy ammo then please share...
Local gun shops, Dunham's Sports, Cabella's...hell, even Dick's usually has a decent supply at better prices than CTD. CTD was the first to jack up the cost of ammo when the panic buys started up. I've been in this game for many years, and would never give a penny to CTD.

I can pick up 440 round spam cans of 7.62X54R at Dunaham's for $99 all day, every day.
