winchester 94 in 25-35 win ammo price
« on: September 18, 2005, 01:03:20 AM »
I just read about the new 25-35 win cal model 94. sounds like a fun caliber. at $1.50 a shot for factory ammo though, quite impractical. I do not reload. Anyone know where I can get cheaper ammo, or also 218 bee or 22 hornet at a cheaper price? I bought some poor quality reloaded 22 hornet cartridges at a gun show and the shells would not eject.

There you go Gunpilot-Get started reloading.  You could soon save the cost of your relo setup.  Reloads are around  20 cents each.  Look at the Lee equipment.  It works for me and is much cheaper.

25-35 was so expensive because no firearm had been made for it in 50 years. My dad has been reloading the same box of brass since the mid 70's, although he doesn't use the gun any more. He probably loaded about two boxes per year. As far as I know, Winchester is the only company still loading 25-35, although now that rifles are being made again it wouldn't surprise me if ammo costs go down and other people get into the market.
