I just spent $65 to buy a 250 count box of Nosler (that's about 26¢ ea.), 158 gr JHP bullets from my local ffl/lgs friend. I'm a lot more partial to cast bullets in my .357 mags and .38 spl's, but I do try occasionally to "support" the local guy. That box of Noslers will last me 4-5 years at the rate I load and shoot jacketed bullets, but it's another way I can help, is a small way, to keep my buddy in business. I would like to believe he'll still be around when chinamart is gone. Unfortunately, he's 4-5 years older than me ... and I don't expect to be around a whole lot longer.
