So many freaking problems with that idea... I don't even know where to begin.

It takes like 18 seconds to sign up for a gunbroker account. If you want the ammo, do it.

Otherwise, I think Palmetto State Armory has it for $200/case.

How about the Black Hills New 308 Rem 175gr BTHP MATCH when comparing with Federal Medal Gold 308 175gr BTHP MATCH (GM308M2)?

Main purpose was shooting @ 600-800 yards
 
Re: Where I can find the best price for .308WIN

usaammo.com just started offering some match loads, 155 amax, 168 and 175 bthp. i shoot their fmj as practice ammo and it does decently
 
Re: Where I can find the best price for .308WIN

The best price for your 308WIN is on your reloading press:

.05 Lapua Brass
.30 your choice of top notch bullet
.09 primer and powder

Total = 44 cents per round or $8.80 per 20 round box. and this is for ammunition better than any factory ammo

Re: Where I can find the best price for .308WIN

+1 Hand loading. I went from $2.80 a round (Aussie prices, don't ask. 175SMK) down to about $1.20 using my press (168 AMAX, AR2208, Fed primers and Fed brass).

It costs more in time but at least you get left alone in the man cave.
 
Re: Where I can find the best price for .308WIN

Don't forget to look at the Civilian Marksmanship Program - CMP. They had a great price on .308 not too long ago. I'm not sure how often they get it, but it was a steal.

+1 on loading your own. You should seriously consider it. It takes a while to get going and really learn what you're doing, but in less than a year of hanging on out this forum and others I was able to stop buying factory ammo for anything (except .22lr) so now I don't even think about factory ammo I just think about what load combo I want. To each their own, you may have a great reason for not loading etc. If time is the factor, let us know. You can cut time to nothing if you're willing to cough up the $$.

Hope this helped.

WOW, where are you getting LAPUA brass for 5cents per? Id but 10K at that price! Cheapest Ive paid is 42cents per.. Sure its a misprint.
 
Re: Where I can find the best price for .308WIN

Where on their site do they have this? I can't find it.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: badwolf</div><div class="ubbcode-body">www.mattsshootingsupplies.com has 168 gold medal for $16.95 a box. </div></div>

You use it twelve times over and 5c per piece is correct.
