Ah: First a box of 139 gr heavy magnum is $38.48 for a box of 20 rounds. Thats close to $2.00 a round, more if you add shipping. The SST 139 gr Moly coated is $33.76 for a box of 20. These are really effective on varmits at 200+ yds. I used ballistic tipped when I went deer hunting, but then switched to the SSTs when they came out. Only when I went deer hunting, I ended up shooting varmints. In my father in-laws .300 WM, I'd shoot the Federals he used. The cheaper Federal rounds are $23.00 a box.
