Fit and chamber a BBL and break......$300.00

$1,100.00 / 500 shots = $2.20 shot.

Hi Tod, if you add expenses driving back and forth to the range (gasoline, wear and tear on vehicle ect) also club dues wear and tear on rifle ect. that would also drive the cost of per shot up. Don't take this to heart I am just kidding.

I have a very important tip for you.

If you have a micrometer seating die add .001 more length for each loaded round to achieve the same throat length every time. If you run out of room in the mag or action length, too bad.

Just kidding, enjoy it while you can.

Thanks for all the input, But not to upset anyone if I had to worry about cost of ALL my toys I would not have any. Like my wife says better spending it on guns and fun stuff than drugs and booze......... What a wonderful wife I have. I post when I get it shooting.

1: "Belt issues" aren't an issue for those of us who know how to set up a FL die properly.

2: RUM/SAUM?WSM sized cases won't work with my Mag...would need to be single shot only. Gun is a 300 WBY already.
