[QUOTE="budlight, post: 1887142, member: 2939"] Those are lawyer friendly loads. They list 118 for a 200 grain at only 52,500 cup. That is a brain fart :) I was looking at CUP correlation to PSI. and that 52,500 is equal to 65,000 PSI. I was buying Weatherby 30-378 brass back in the day when the local sporting goods store was selling them for $54 bucks for a bag of 50 and I went through a lot of them. It's hard to quantify the cost from 20 to 30 years ago with today's cost. What was your annual income then on tax records compared to today. Like when I was kid in the early 70's and reloading my 22-250 . I remember when min wage went from $1.25 per hour to $1.50. Someone gave me a box full of really old Speer bullets of all kinds of calibers from an estate sale. One from Longs drug store has a price tag of $2.21 for 100 50 gr. So back when I first started reloading I probably had to work an hour and a half @ to buy 100 bullets. Comparing minimum wage things cost more now! [/QUOTE]
