I didn't buy your ammo and you resort to personal attacks against me??? 800 rounds isn't "selective hoarding" as some people will shoot that in a weekend. I didn't want your ammo because I didn't want to waste money buying a grain that I'm not going to primarily shoot, and I wasn't going to "hoard" it from someone else who may have wanted it. Please, it sounds like you need to get out more because you have an incredible lack of understanding of people and their motives. All the more reason to avoid your, "deals" in the future. You sounded suspicious before and you've confirmed it more now.
and just to clarify, you said you could sell me two packs of rounds, not 3300 rounds. That's 600 rounds, if you could do math. 800 rounds isn't an enormous stash and I told you that when I emailed you. ANd I don't have friends in "stores" you moron. I have friends outside of "stores". Man, I need to stop writing as you aren't even worth the waste of internet space.
Honestly, if you have 500 rounds of ammo and it takes more than 2-5 to zero your rifle you are probably better off investing in some training at this point. I remember the practice of blasting through boxes of ammo to zero.. now I put a shot on paper at 25 yards, adjust - shoot again to confirm the adjustment and then move out to 100 yards and verify again.... it's really pretty easy once you get the hang of it but without some training in the proper techniques the cost to re-zero can add up pretty fast over time.
I think Oldman gave you some valid advice... there was no personal insult there unless you ego is so fragile you cannot accept a perfectly valid perspective from someone with a lot more wisdom and life experience than you. All he suggested was that you consider looking at 55 grain ammo (which seems to be more widely available), selling-trading your 62 grain and re-zeroing your rifle to match since you're going down that road anyway and having problems finding 62-grain. Don't complain about lack of supply when you've boxed yourself into a corner with arbitrarily difficult to fill requirements on what kind of ammo you want.
