I stumbled across the same deal when I was in Calgary last month, only wish I had bought 2 or 3 cases instead of 1.

Last week the CDN Tire on Macleoad Trail South had the sameammo - $429 per 1000.

Using once fired military crimped brass with a premium powder (Varget), my reloading cost/1,000 is under $250 using .62 grn Armscor projectiles.
Using surplus WC735 powder, cost drops to $170/1,000.
The "hidden" cost is the time spent in brass prep and actual reloading itself. Treating it as a hobby will justify these disparities. Happy shooting to us all!!!

Cool! I can't wait to get into reloading. I collect all the brass from my favourite firearms (and difficult to acquire cartridges). I've got plenty of C77 brass too.

Just can't afford all the machines and tools yet...

Thanks for sharing actual cost. Been thinking about reloading, but the equipment can be pricey.
