Second, it has been quite inexpensive to shoot. They cost me $14.60 for 50 bullet, and $5.39 for 50 sabot.
I have nothing against paying more for a better product, but in this case, more isn't better, nor necessary.
Where do you get these? I'd like to try some and have never seen any at local stores and just hadn't looked online much. That seems a lot cheaper than what I'm paying for muzzle loader bullets and I wouldn't mind switching for that price if they work well on deer.
