Mr_Logic 5 Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Right then, got the 204 today, got some factory ammo as nobody had the dies for it. Just the 60 rounds, 20 with the gun and 40 from another shop. The 20 with the rifle were free, the other 40 rounds cost £60! 1.50 a bang, for 204?!? So I got talking to the guy in the shop, turns out that's cheap. For high quality 308 ammo - £48.99 per box he said. Now that seems absolutely mad to me - is this an exceptionally expensive place or has ammo really gone up this much? I heard a price hike was coming but this is mental! Glad I am reloading now, just need the 204 dies... Quote Link to post
