Shucks that's CHEAP compared to what our friends in the UK and Oz are forced to pay. Fellow on a/r went to oz on a buff cull shoot. Took 200rnds for a five day killin spree and ran out by Wed noon. Ended up dropping another $800 for ammo he burned up of the PH's. That would completely destroy my trip to get hit with that kinda bill.
Be happy Doug!!

I love my small stuff a bunch, but I have no problem knowing that the big stuff costs a lot more to shoot simply because I enjoy shooting them and hunting with them.

I was idling thru the ammo portion of a Bass Pro Shop ad mailer yesterday, and noticed that some Remington ammo was priced over $150/box. I did NOT investigate WHICH ammo it might have been (perhaps it was .375 RUM with Partitions or Swifts or somesuch, but I wouldn't spend $40 on a box of Remington ANYTHING.
The ad just pictured some generic Remington box and said "from $29.95 to $151.95" or something similar.
