    I thought Orest said they were not going to sell the spam cans until they run out of the loose stuff first.
    With the recent price increase causing some people not to buy anymore HXP from CMP, I suspect the current inventory
    of loose ammo will last a while longer.

    I'm sure Orest is going to put limits on the number of spam cans you can order so there should be plenty to go around.
    I won't be ordering any. I stocked up on spam cans years ago.

    Jak, I guess you had the old price of $60.00 a can? I just want one ,to mess with ,unless they really cut a deal. Which is not very Likely since they are raising the prices of everything including AIR over at CMP?

    I havent bought any HXP from CMP since they started selling the loose floor sweepings. I have enough to last me for awhile then will either handload or use Prvi

    No, not $60.00...more like $45.00/can. That was 6 or 7 years ago.

    $45. a can,,OMG,,I would have really stacked that DEEP...I could not qualify for the CMP as to the club membership then, It was $500.00 a year..to belong to shooters club, and i can fire in my back-yard at will?? Anyway, I still might try for a can when it happens? I have enough to use already, Esp if I convert over to 7.62 on my main garand? Back to CMP, they really crack me up. If I belonged to the privelage HOT-LINE bunch, I would be broke Cherry-picking the nice toys..Defintely be very tempting..Reading up on API ammo over there..Never even saw any of that in the Guard...and i was in the ammo section for quite a while...Shooting propane bottles, with API,???Yuuummmy.

    250 round metal link cans were put on sale today. $100 + $11.95 shipping. They didn't last long, maybe 4 hours. At just under .45/rd it was a good price compared to the 200 round loose stuff.
