Any difference between those and these? https://palmettostatearmory.com/cci...h-velocity-lead-hollow-point-300rds-0962.html

Makes them a little cheaper per round...
It's the packaging, the ammunition is exactly the same. If you're looking to store them for an extended period of time, you'll probably want the ones in the first link for the all plastic case versus cardboard packaging which holds moisture. If you're blasting them all by spring, cardboard is just fine for the cheaper price per round.

Thus my post. For many, this is a one-and-done deal. 49 of these 100-packs fill a Cabela's dry box to the brim.

And if you can hold your nose and forgive yourself some political incorrectness, BJ's is running a special: https://www.bjs.com/product/fortress-2-pc--ammo-box/3000000000001205086
 
Moisture is always the enemy of ammunition. "Keep your powder dry" didn't end with the invention of cartridges. Same goes for preventing mice damage, they will go after cardboard and build a nest in your ammunition stocks, and as pretty much everyone here likely knows, mice can and will get virtually anywhere.

As for this ammo itself, it's my personal favorite for plinking and small game huniting. Stingers and Velocitors are awesome in a bolt or lever rifle, but that additional velocity isn't always the best for the semi autos when feeding reliability is a major concern as they have caused my semis to ride over the next round in the magazine due to the increased cycle of operation speed. Mini-Mags have always been right in the "Goldilocks Zone" for me that I can feed my Buckmark, 10/22 and DPMS AR upper with >99% reliability.

My Annie still eats nothing but a diet of Eley...
