.357 Mag Best Prices?

[Travis Bickle]

God help me I picked up a Pietta SAA 1873 w/7.5" barrel in .357 Mag

.38 Spl is all over at great prices.

Where is the best place/dealer selling .357 Mag though? Not looking for premium match grade by any means.
Just a hundred rounds or so at a decent price for the two or three times a year I'll actually shoot it.

Any leads on a good deal? Dealers welcome of course.

If you are only looking for 2 boxes a year then just buy what you find local and don't waste time trying to save $2-$3 a box. That being said, $27 to $34 a box seem to be the norm that I've spent. I found a guy that sells reload .38spl at $13 a box and that's all I shoot now.

Will look into her.
Thanks.

Well the way the price of ammo keeps going up, the way I look at if I buy a couple hundred now, it will last me 20 years at the lowest price it will ever be lol
Then I don't have to drop the cash 8 years from now when it's $4.50 a round or prohibited due to government ###ness, if you get what I'm layin' down.

reloading FTW box of 50 with my cast bullets is only $8! i don't count reloading press etc as it's a one time fee.

I'm only set up for .30-06 though I still haven't loaded yet.
I need to stop being a lazy ass and get into it more I think, or find someone willing to sell a few handloads at a marked up price for labour/components....

Thanks all!

Could you post a review or thoughts on your new SAA? I am looking at the exact pistol...

make sure you trust who ever with your life, because that's what your doing with reloads from other people.

since your already setup then it's just a matter of a new set of dies for 38spl which will also do 357mag. its less work then rifle rounds since you don't have to trim your brass.

When she comes in from Marstar I will do a full write up.
There's not much info on them in depth. Just a lot of "it's built really well, shoots awesome" style stuff.
Hickock45 has a video on them. He praises them, so that was good enough for me!

Will post a review once I ge it in and shoot it.

That's a good point (shows how much I currently know about reloading as well)
You can't beat 8 cents a round I guess after set up. Will be keeping the brass from the first box of 50 I buy for sure.
