High priced 338 lupa mag ammo

[jimmy t]

Would like to know why the 338 lapua mag ammo is so expense.
I'm looking at the 338 lapua upper, but the price of the ammo is enough to
discourage me.

Its a limited use cartridge that is used by a small shooting niche in the civilian world and on a limited basis by the foreign militaries. Also consider the amount of material used to make one cartridge, and the fact you have only a few producing it. I keep waiting for 6.8 spc to get below about 400 a thousand so join the club.
