    or $35 for a box of 20. I dont even bother reloading anymore. shoots 5 shots 1moa in my Zastava.
    This could be an awesome option, uses the same projectile as the Hornady whitetail (Hornady 150gr SP). I (and many others) use this projectile as a good cheap option when handloading. If it shoots well in your rifle then you wont beat it for value and you'll get pretty good performance on game.

    I just know that Fed blue box will almost always shoots well - assuming the barrel is good and the gunsmithing work for the suppressor was done correctly.

    Had excellent grouping from the Belmont stuff last time I tested a .308. Sadly this rifle is now on the ban list.
