New production is generally in the $50/box range.

The "original" flavour was a 200 grain bullet. Most new production is ~145 grain.

38 Spl ammo is very common and cheap.

the 38 S&W is a different caliber (that's why it looks so different) and costs a bit more.

 

[stampede]

158 grain

I am sure a lot of us have bought firearms to use ammunition that we got in some fashion, or after we ended up with reloading dies for a caliber that we didn't currently own ! Maybe its just me.
