    These days,i'd say you done alright. I was at bass pro and they were asking 45 dollars a box for FGMM 168 gr. I found it else where for 19.95 per box. Now I just reload. Still cost around 40 some cents to reload. SMK's aren't cheap

    With todays reloading component price, it would be darn tough to reload .308 for under 63 cents per round, if you include the price of even used brass. I would say the original poster did very well, especially for reloadable brass. If he sells the used brass for 20 cents each, he bought the ammo for less than the current price of a new bullet and a primer, and he does not have to spend time loading.
