 :o $53 bucks for only 50... They sound like a great bullet, but pricey.

Yes priemiums in the context of the hunt even if it is just a local hunt are cheap or more accuratly not that much more than a standard cup and core head, but it's the load development that is expensive, never mind practice.  Still cheap in the context of a "big hunt" though.
