Cost of ammo?

[Ucsdryder]

I keep seeing this brought up on here. Does the cost of ammo really dictate the amount you shoot? I was surprised how close the cost of 300prc and 6.5/6cm is!

At my local gun store, here are the prices of white box Hornady…


300prc - 42.99
6.5prc - 39.99
6.5cm - 39.99
6cm - 37.99
338 Lapua - 119.99

All pretty reasonable compared to what we’ve seen over the last couple of years and hopefully a trend that continues.

I’ve been selling my brass to make it even cheaper! At one point I was getting almost $1 per round for once fired Hornady 6.5prc brass.

Only down side with the PRC for me is the barrel life. Will probably go to a cm for my next barrel.

I sell my brass as well, but it doesn’t even come close to covering the cost of my shooting adventures.
