There are 3 routes into Boise.
I84, H26, and H20
I took H26 to downtown Boise to Boise State Campus.
"Boise" has cheap 1940's era housing, but anything modern will cost you an arm and a leg.
Garden city was the out skirts in the 70s-80s, but is fairly druggy.
Meridian was the outskirts in the 1990s and early 2000s great place to live, but pretty expensive.
Star and Caldwell are cheap, but hour commutes with out traffic. I would avoid living on the other side of Boise unless you are looking for 400k houses or so.
And yeah, sure I will ride with you, but most the good ridding is up north. Idaho city has a good system closer to Boise. Considering doing the Idaho city 100 next year.

My "area" though is up north. Your good riding is Eastern Washington, N Idaho, and Montana. Those trips you will want at minimum 4 days though.

Recently for awhile a few times Wolf Gold .223, which as we know is very good and really 5.56 spec apparently, has been available at about $300/1k shipped. But IMI is at least as good as the Wolf, $10 cheaper, and 200 extra rounds. Compared to basically the best mainstream available deal I can remember, it's still $10 less and +200 rounds...which is about a $70 combined "price drop" equivalent

Seen it for 279 on TSUSA. I would have gladly bought a couple cases but thought it was no where near as good as IMI so I was hoping to wait for an on par company to have a deal like IMI even at a couple cents more per round would have been sufficient.

IMI >= Wolf Gold
So, just going by my opinion and what I have posted, you can stop asking that question, yes?
For M193 type 5.56x45 ammo I start by looking for these
IMI
Federal
Wolf Gold
Prvi Partizan
There are a lot of other good manufacturers, but based on regular availability, pricing, experience, and encountered feedback I prefer to buy those four generally

I dun goofed not stacking up on that federal. At the time I was like I don’t need 8k now, but soon after it ended, I wanted to store at least 10-15k. I want to have a decent amount if I ever decide to take rifle training and it’s obviously good to keep and store in case anything happens

I'm sure I'd look big at 200 with 7-8% too. But that will never happen. lol
