I know we all have heard it a million times. So far for me, I have found Calbelas pretty "cheap" on the price, if you considered saving on average $1-$2 on a pack of 50 cheaper. If wondering I use .380 and .45 ACP. I don't want the cheapest built bullet and I don't want the most expensive bullet either. I have two (three if you count the one under the tree) guns, a Taurus PT 638 PRO and a .... Hi Point .45. Of couse when I was using the Winchesters' target rounds, they are perfect! But after awhile they kinda... hit the pocket books a bit. I have tried the Herters Brass casing ones and I have NO miss fires nor failure to eject. So for practice i have been leaning towards Herter's brand (brass casing).
At the above mention store, a 50 pack runs $22 for .45 cal and about $17 for .380 cal. (Herter's, and about $20 for .380 and $24 for .45cal in the Winchster's)
I went to "wally world" and the same Winchesters' brand cost a few dollars more??? I even asked for a price match and they wouldn't do it (West Florissant store). Their .380 cal, 100 round back with tax is $42 vs. the other store at $32 for a 100 rounds!!!
But of course looking online... I have found several websites that will sell rounds at a "cheaper" price, but what sucks, the shipping cost! In the long run, it was best to just go to the local store and buy it and save a few bucks.
But what I really want to know (and some of you may know) what's the most affordable traning rounds to buy and where from? Keeping in mind I really perfer brass casing.
