    Amax is much cheaper than the Swifts @R93........ and almost cheaper than the Interlocks actually. Tried to find some cheap 6.5 bullets for offhand shooting practice loads but turns out Amax is about as cheap as it gets
    I only use the swifts on animals and a bit of steel.
    I don't trust the AMAX up close so no point in me using it no matter how cheap they are. I am happy to pay whatever for peace of mind.

    I spend retarded money all the time on my passion and most likely always will.
    It is pretty retaded that I have 2 guns in my safe, that together, are worth more than my sheep shagger😆
