The cheapest S&B in .45 ACP I have found in my area is R300 for 50. The Winchester White Box I purchased last was R940 for 100. Leads on shops with better prices will greatly appreciated.

I think rf was quoting 9mm prices.

You need to start reloading Gerrit. It won't save you any money though... you will just shoot more!

I'm still a shy and introverted shooter. Next time I will be on the lookout for shirts with names on that I recognize and I will definitely introduce myself. I'm also easy to spot, I,ll be the handsomely overweight guy with the Colt Double Eagle - not too many of them floating around.. ;) (the gun, not the figure)

That's not a bad price for 45's, only other option is to start reloading :)

DRD, that is definitely my plan. Have a buddy already set up for 45, so will be visiting him regularly in the coming months.

Nice. Then I think we will be a club of 2. No other DE that I know of. Spoke to guy at S&O and he said he has only ever seen 3 of this rare species of bird in all his years.
