When Hornady says "seasonal production" they aren't kidding. I checked my trap line and there is zero new brass available. I looked to establish a baseline for how much you could expect to pay for 1-fired as it tracks availability and new price. Last time I bought some, it was like $46.99 per 50. I see Hornady 86935 MSRP is now $61.81! I suspect the days of $.25 per 1-fired case is, like so many other used-to-be prices, long gone. Good luck getting some. It is a caliber that can benefit greatly from reloading. Makes my measly 36 new cases and quart peanut butter jar of 1-fired cases look like precious metals. Slickguns is a good place to check for list of who might have some new. Of course, if you catch a sale, its not a bad idea to load up on actual 250gr ammo, if not for any other reason than to get some reloading brass stock.
