    I would think they could do better than .28 a round with that kind of quantity...

    May as well have it shipped directly to your BugOut location cause once it comes off the truck its home to stay.

    Cruel and unusual treatment. Not only don't I have the money but I don't own the gun.

    Big problem if you are a "Type A", you would have to count them to make sure you didn't get cheated!

    If you count them you may need a bit of help in the mental department. Just shoot the darn things!!!!

    At 380 lbs., I thought it would weigh more than that. I guess I'm use to 5 gal. buckets of lead. LOL

    Shoot, I guess I'm worse than that. I probably would repackage them in MTM plastic boxes and put them in ammo cans!

    At that quantity I would have expected them to be a little cheaper.

    well when I can get military contract over runs for $0.15 a round DELIVERED by buying 1000 round cases, I THINK I can do better. AND have it in 50 round boxes to boot.

    still if it was 200 or 240 grain xtp in 44 magnum or a good 357 load. Or even 125 grain scalloped sjhp in 38 special +p from Remington id seriously be thinking about it.

    What would that weigh if it was filled to the top with 148 grain wad cutters?
