    Belmont's retail/normal ammo is about $43 per 50 but they also have "seconds" which have minor scratches and tiny dings for way less. I just got some to try v their std retail ammo. So its cheaper than Barnaul/Tula steel and much of it looks re-loadable.

    So I have,

    20 x 69gr ADI Sierra matchking as my control/benchmark. (lre-loadable as its boxer primed)
    20 x 62 grain barnaul FMJ
    20 x 55gr tula FMJ
    50 x 62 gr Speer Belmont (re-loadable as its boxer primed)
    200 x 55gr FMJ Belmont seconds. [(looks re-loadable as its boxer primed)

    I also have 150 new x 223 ADI cases so Im looking for some projectiles to try as well, but I aint buying 1000!
