    500 s&w

    I have had a few private messages about 500 S&W. We have sourced a supply of ammunition in this calibre.
    There are a couple of choices we need to make.
    1 - what grain would you like?
    2 - how much is too expensive? Please keep in mind that we are buying with a 72 cent dollar and if the numbers don't work we won't be able to bring in any.

    1 - 700 grains would be awesome
    2 - seems like $90ish a box is going rate with the dollar the way it is... so under $100 would be ideal
    If you know how many guns you have... you don't have enough

    The largest I have found - today - is 500 grain from Hornady. Price will be around $90 - at todays dollar.

    I like the 350gr bullets. I have had great success with Hornady and would certainly try others in this weight if available.

    Best price I could find so far is DOUBLETAP AMMO 500 S&W 400gr - we would be selling this for around $75 for 20. Would this work for anyone?
