What they are charging for ammunition makes me really glad I reload my own.

I certainly agree with this. Loading our own can also help on the level of spending much less on brass. That is, making our own from much less expensive and much more available cases. For example, Buffalo Arms offers a box of 20 .219 Zipper cartridges for $115 (plus tax and shipping). .219 Zipper cases can be made from .30-30 brass – and then of course reloaded multiple times. Nearly all of the .33, .38-56 and .40-65 cases I load are reformed .45-70 cases.

I’m glad Buffalo Arms is offering this ammo. Not everyone has the room, time or aptitude to load specialty ammunition. Collectors who only shoot occasionally are well served by this offering, IMHO. It looks like their ammo is handloaded and some of it may require special techniques or components. I think for quite a few collectors this may be a prudent and viable option. I haven’t seen or used their ammunition but suspect it is good quality. Specialty ammo isn’t cheap, good stuff will be significantly more than the stuff on the shelves at Walmart. When someone asks me how much it costs to load a given round of obsolete ammo I want to tell them what a recent inventory of my loading room revealed. A comprehensive loading setup will never save the average reloader any money but with proper supplies and equipment he will never again be dependent on an unreliable supply chain and most importantly he will get to shoot as much as he wants.

For those that are interested, I still have 8,000 factory new primed 22 Hornet cases. Most of it is Winchester W-W SUPER brass. Send me a PM if interested. I can deliver it at the Cody Show if desired.
