Also what is shelf life of ammo?

Ammunition, properly stored, lasts for decades.

What I notice about these bulk government buys is that they're buying premium hollowpoint cartridges for practice.

That's BS. If it's really practice ammo, they should be buying FMJ like sane folks do.

You do realize that you area talking about the government procurement process...right? There is NOTHING sane about it; bad intentions, or not.

Like Hell!

Sane people practice with what they use.

You are mistaking "sane" for "cheap."
