For me it is crazy as I average around 200 rounds of pistol and or 50-100 rounds of rifle down range most weeks.
I buy in bulk and am well stocked due to being caught short a few times over the last 30 years.
I can imagine for the average deer hunter, a 100 rounds may see them right for a year / years.
In the realms of the overall costs of firing that one shot to secure a deer, $0.65 cents would be one of the smallest costs associated with doing what we do if your round count is low.
It was mentioned earlier in the thread that we're a very shooting oriented country & as such represent an attractive market. I'm a bit out of touch but going back to days before H&F were a thing & GC was but a single shop in Chch, a friend who worked in the retail business said that the whole NZ market was smaller than some big gunshops turn over in the USA & as such we were pretty small beer. I doubt that has changed much. I haven't shot much for a while but now I'm retired hope to get out more. I think I've probably got enough primers to see me out. Better go & have a count though. ;)
Thats really easy.........................Salesman or retailers generally make statements like this when they really should just say ...................nothing if they are unsure or don't know!!Quote:

100% dodgy as fuck, looks like someone got greedyQuote:
