Re: Deal alert Remington range bucket 9mm 11.4 cents a round after rebate

I went to Academy in McKinney this morning, and they were out of stock on 9mm. So then I went to Cabella's in Allen. Bunches of buckets in 9mm - no limit on purchase. Picked up 3 buckets at $74.99 - more than the Academy price. But the Cabella's purchase came with a $25 Christmas instant in-store or on-line rebate (must be used by Dec 24). $8.33 per bucket off the $74.99 = $66.67/bucket.

After I got home, I noticed one bucket was noticeably heavier than the other two. I weighed all 3 buckets - 4258 grams, 4263 grams, 5066 grams. Opened all 3 and one bucket definitely had more rounds in it.
So I emptied one bucket to get empty weight, weighed 30 rounds to get a per round average weight. Subtracted the empty bucket weight, divided by the per round weight. First 2 buckets were 350 rounds (+/- 1), the third bucket calculated at 420 rounds. 70 more rounds for free ain't bad! :mrgreen:
