[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 2997352, member: 63925"] For EXAMPLE not true costs for vast majority but for demonstration purposes. Just remember does not include HAZMAT, shipping and taxes. Example cost per round. Do YOUR own math on your specific costs. .16 - primer 1.00 - bullet .50-1.00 - powder Brass wholly dependent on variables The cost will NOT be better tomorrow. Just a thought on cost per round GENERALLY not specific but end of day primer is still by far the cheapest cost and I will not let a couple Pennie's per round difference prevent me from buying primers. Funny, cost of primers is big deal but buying brass at $200/100 is no big deal. If you got 10x on brass still .20/shot. Most zoom zoom cartridges will not get 10x firings on brass. 🤷🏻♂️$500/8lb after HAZMAT doesn't prevent shooting? So 112gr/$1.00 so maybe 2 loads = 56gr/.50. Obviously shooting big bore is another level. 🤷🏻♂️ Pay it don't play. The primer is still lowest cost of round by far. Buy premium factory hunting or target ammo? Prob $50-$80/box. $2.50-$4.00/round.
