The full story

The Butler County Board on Oct. 27 authorized the Sheriff's Office to purchase bulk practice and duty ammunition in an amount not to exceed $38,500. Finance Director Ryan Adkison told the Board that the Sheriff's Office budgets $45,000 for such purchases and that staff performed price checks; On-Target Ammunition was recommended because it consistently had the volumes needed, offered the lowest net pricing (including buy-back of brass casings) and provided timely delivery.
