Oh you know I think there was a mistake and that was supposed to be shipped to my house. So if you could just go ahead and box it up and do that that would be great.
Seriously though load it up!
How much are they charging for a box of 25? This is where im getting my ammo
S4 is god awful expensive. Shipped $85 for 25.

I run black fang. It wowed the folks at viper weapons systems and it’s frequently available, even through the pandemic.

Through ammunition depot I pay roughly $330 for 500 Federal rounds

Federal is all well and good for plinking but it is the very last round that I would use to defend myself.

Its all going to make a nice hole in the perp!! Its not like you’re going to be shooting from 300 yds away.

The reason I’m opposed to federal ammo aside from their lack of crimp issue is that the bullet isn’t going fast enough to tumble from most platforms and tumbling is where that nice hole comes from with 5.7. Faster bullet (over about 2k fps) = definite tumble
Ss195lf is my absolute minimum carry and since the pandemic eased ss198lf has been my minimum.
My S4 ammo arrived the other day. I sent a few of them down range, I cried a little with each shot costing about $3.50 
They seemed to run fine in my Rock. Wish I had a crono to check em.

For Black Fang it’s buy 100 rounds for $200, pay in advance and wait 4 months. Looks very similar to the Elite T6 ammo.
I had no problem buying readymade black fang all throughout the pandemic. You can pre-order if you want to do it that way and save some money. Or you can hit their website a couple times a week and actually get the ammo when it comes in stock.
I’ve yet to see any of Elite’s ammo actually in stock in the last 2 years.
Looking at the Elite website, none of their ammo is available to order at all except their S4 Conversion.
Fortunately, back when you could order their ammo and the delivery time wasn’t extremely long, I got a number of boxes of S4, T6B, Devastator and Devastator2. My carry round is the T6B. So not concerned about the lead time on the Black Fang. Ordered a 100 rounds to compare them to the T6B.
