30-378

No such thing as a good price for that calibre, even reloading is that much of a bargain. It's a powder pig, and weatherby brass ain't cheap
 
If you have lots of brass (which is what you are paying for), you could load for about $2.00 a round if you are tooled up for the calibre. Closer to $5.50 if you buy factory fresh brass.
 
I'd definitely reload for that...

Lee has some really simple presses for 30 bucks, a scale for 30 bucks, dies are 40, probably need a caliper as I imagine that brass stretches a lot. Or find a friend that reloads and buy the dies and ask to use his gear?

Bullets are as much as you want to spend, for punching paper can use pretty cheap ones. Powder/primers are negligible.

Once your brass wears out your costs get retarded tho, looks like $2.50 per piece...

X2 on that. You're not going to find specialty ammo like 30-378 at your local Crappy tire for $30 a box. What's a box of 30-378 go for? $120 or more? It would only take the cost of a few boxes of factory ammo to buy all the reloading gear you need. After you have the brass, bullets, primers, and powder (well... maybe not at the quantities that a 30-378 uses) is relatively cheep.
 
30-378 aint cheap to buy factory rounds. I load for 30-378, 338-378KT and 338-378 and I`d suggest finding someone local to load for you. Brass aint cheap, but can be loaded for less than half of factory once you have your brass and dies. If you were close to me I`d even do it;)
I don`t know of anywhere that has 30-378 factory rounds cheap as they never were to start with:)
 
Did anyone read the rest of the posts, I asked if anyone knows where to get 180gr accubonds for cheaper than 130$ a box, is it really that difficult everyone, it was just a simple question, Yes I just bought a set of dies, & yes I knew how much it cost before I purchased the firearm, so what's the problem with asking a simple question like I did, why does everyone get so fired up about someone elses simple question about ammo.

Guys, thanks for your feedback, none of which helped. This is a (Pre-rolled ammo) thread. Not a reloading thread!!!!!!!!

Holy.....relax a little. Your question WAS answered! You asked "Where can I get it cheaper?" The only answer: RELOAD IT!

Wether you LIKE the answer or not is irrelevant, but let me dumb it down for you to the lowest possible level.

If you want to spend 130 a box, thats as good as it's going to get.
If you want it cheaper, you have to reload.

Do us all a favour, next time you have a "simple" question, go ask it somewhere else.

Sheesh....

Oh & bye the way sorry if I offended anyone, I just figured someone would tell me to try here or have you tried these guys yet, you know. My apologies guys.
 
My uncle has a 30-378 and tries to pawn it off on me everytime I visit him. Anyhow, I ALWAYS seem to look at prices when I shop for my other calibers. I have looked in over 30 stores over the past 3 years, and the cheapest I can remember it costing was 122.00 a box. That is the reason right there that he still has that rifle, and why he is still trying to pawn it off on me. I wouldn't be able to afford to shoot that thing. I pulled the trigger 2 times and said "thats enough of that".
