WTF? x 1000

Anybody here, especially an RFD, like to comment on this utterly ridiculous price?

tac, still reeling........metaphorically, that is.

Could be worse!! Much Worse!!

We shoot the 300 mt match with 6 mmBR, factory match 106 gn ammo is £1.75 a pop, and thats if you can get it! One match is 70 shots with sighters, and the wife and I shoot 2000 a year between us. And No, we can't afford the factory ammo, thats why we reload.

The price is high because world wide the demand is low, and the precision is high, I suspect .22 hornet is similar.

I paid for our reloading investment halfway through our first seasion.

Have Fun
