Yes, $850 per 1000 + shipping is HIGH.............
But remember a few years ago vendors were asking up to $1000 per 1000 for 55gr FMJ 223 ammo. I bet they didn't sell very much......
Say $0.30 for the bullet, $0.15 for the powder, and $0.03 for the primer as an example. That is 48 cents per round. Cheaper bulk bullets and powder & primers in bulk will reduce that quite a bit.....
