"Cheapest "I saw at the Richmond show last weekend, was Brown Bear 145 gr. FMJ for 10.00-12.00 depending on the seller. 20 rounds per pack.

$239/500 150gr wolf works out to $9.xx/20
also check
http://www.ammoengine.com/ shows you prices from a bunch of vendors.
If you want brass cased reloadable, it will be a bit more than the $10/box steel case.

John I have have about 15 or so tracer rounds if you want them. You can kill a deer and cook it at the same time.

Why block it ? There is not a limit on the number of rounds your rifle can hold. The shell limit is only for shotguns used for waterfowl and doves.

That is a nice looking rig.

There used to be a 3 shot limit on shotguns but that was changed last year . As far as rifles go I have never heard of or read in the game laws there ever was a round limit.

Hey John,
Next time we hook up I will give you a couple of my Piggy Back .308 rounds. They were an experiment in Nam back in my day and I brought some home. They were used mostley on gunships to see what they would do. It is 2 - 308 slugs loaded on top of each other. I tried them at 500 yards with my M1A1 National Match and the dispersion was so wide that I could not keep them on paper. Maybe they would be good for "HERD SHOOTING" at close range.
