4 cases may have been taken from it --- a case is 1k rnds? 25# per case. Big difference with what was originally reported.

Most 9mm I bought at my old shop came 500 rnds or ten boxes a case. Really bugs some delivery guys when you order 10K or more at a time.
All this for 2,000 rounds of 9mm?
If it was packed in GI package .......I think it's been a while it's about 4400 rounds per box . The boxes are like 108# per box with 4 30 cal cans inside each . A pallet is 36 boxes . 3 layers of 12 on a 40×48 . Short of an Excursion or 3500 Suburban they didn't get away with a pallet . If they tossed 5-6 boxes in the sedan it'd be pretty obvious unless it was on the floor in the back seat . I don't see much more than twice that being in in the SUV even if it was a Suburban/Excursion class .
If they got away with 20 boxes I still don't see 88,000 rounds being worth life in prison. Of course that's a quarter of a million rounds for 3 hits so maybe it does make sense.
