If I were shooting guns capable of handling a steady diet of whatever is cheapest at Walmart or online, I'd do that in a heartbeat. I don't like reloading very much and the amount saved per box wouldn't make enough of a different for the volume of shooting I do.
However I'm shooting 100+ year old damascus guns with blackpowder, so I load my own, an hour will usually get me about 50-75 shells loaded.
Cost: 16g about $13.25 per 25; 10g about 25.50 per 50
Chantry,
I don't shoot much either, but love hunting wild turkey and some pheasant hunting with my damascus Remington 1894 SxS, Remington 1893 single barrel, 28 gauge and Syracuse A grade 12 Ga damascus. Also, not interested at all in reloading since RST offers all the shells I will ever need at today's reasonable cost. Check them out at....
