I try to buy local as much as possible.well I went to the hardware store today and as I was perusing bullets I noticed the 54 cal TC maxiball and maxi hunters were marked down from $10.25to $6.50 they said the lube was drying out. He said if I wanted them I could buy them all for $5.00 each.I figured that would last me a good long time and they shoot good in the Great Plains Hunter so I took all 20 boxes 400 bullets. A good deal considering the 15 pack powerbelts aerolite was $34.95 a pack and barnes was 32.95 for 20. I figure them 430Gr conicals will be just fine especially for a quarter each.
