dev null Posted June 13, 2019 Share guess what you're doing this week end? He will get to the gun shop and find they are out of stock of all the stuff he is looking for. Like Safari and Outdoor, which is why I call them Safari and Out Of Stock. They never have the bullets that I want for range work. And neither the primers that I want.

Always an awesome feeling collecting after such a long wait! PS. I'm too lazy to go look at what you got. What did you get? Either way I would suggest you look into doing your DSS and getting a reloading system. On my G21 I dropped the cost per round (now these are only range rounds) from around R6.50 per round to R2.20 (depending on what Cyril does to the rand). By no means is this to save money, as the cheaper the ammo the more you shoot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reloading equipment, even second hand, is expensive. If you don't shoot every weekend, just buying factory reloads is an option.

johnson Posted June 14, 2019 Share Good shot. How far away?Thanks. That was at 15 meters. That was 300 rounds of mixed ammo, lots of different weights and loads. I Was also shooting quite fast and double tapping a lot to get the cases cleared for reloading. I Can get some better groupings when using decent factory or my own reloaded ammo. gummibear and Long Wheel Base 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hang those up on my perimeter wall, just to show any potential intruders that you won't miss. johnson and gummibear 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 9mm P reloads comes out to R2.35 a round using decent FMJ's. (last time I did the maths) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(last time I did the maths) Yah mine works out very cheap. But also I do not run premium parts. Buy casings as and when I get them cheap, mostly shot once before, bullets I run 200gr frontier's which work out to around R1.00 a pop when buying a thousand or so at a time, primers are S&B (which cost around R350-R450 a box of 1000), with powder making up the balance.
