I bought South African PMP .243 ammo last year for $9.99 per box. It shoots quite accurately. In contrast, fresh Remington .243 ammo is more than double this price! YIKES!

I just bought 350 rounds of 2-1/2" low-pressure 16ga shells.
$172 + shipping. But now I'll have proper hulls to reload...

I paid about $80+shipping once for ammo, but it was a butt load of 7.62x54R surplus. Still have alot left too; maybe I need another gun to help with my accumulating ammo problem....hmmm.
Hey OI, you got a fancy little tube gun for all that 16ga ammo?

Yeah. a 100y/o (ish) German Drilling in 16x16 over 9.3x72R (roughly .38-55 class)
Thing is, it requires 2-1/2" or shorter shells, so they have to be special ordered.

And remember, the EcoLibSocs want to make wheel weights (cheap, castable lead) illegal.
Gee... I wonder why?

I'm thinking I have to look into reloading these shotgun shells - the prices are getting rediculous.
There is a special group over there you can join that is specifically dedicated to short, low pressure loads for old guns.
Take a look around.

Do you think we can be bailed out if we can't afford the ammo for our guns. I have been shopping for a while and i'm now looking into casting my own. I wonder what it would take to make brass shells?
