      It’s probably the cost buying from the range. Might also be regional. I’m going to keep replying to myself.

        It is, the ranges mark up the ammo (what business doesn’t) as they sell small quantities to a captive audience who will pay. Ammoseek represents the other end of the spectrum, ppl buying wholesale in larger quantities. Not represented are the hand loaders, typically sports-oriented going through a thousand a week in practice buying components at cost.

        That is fair, you can expect to pay double for the convenience of buying on site at a staffed range.

          As a company man, he says it “might be a little cheaper elsewhere,” but they are the lowest price around for admission.
