I went with the K31!

Also pocket-lightening! I'm trying to convince the fiancé that she must buy me one so as to own a "complete" instrument of history. I josh you not, I used those words!

I'm just thankful I've never really needed to justify myself, though my purchases do bring a lot of flak, lol.

Shame there ain't too many hogs here, that'd make a fine sticker. At my moms, in San Antonio Tx, that's considered a side arm come hog hunting time!

They're heavy blades, made right.
 
When I can get it, I'm spending about $80 for a brick. That's just 60 rounds. Last deal I was able to haggle was $35 each for four bricks, because I knew the guy, and knew that I was the only one he's ever sold a K31 to. lol Love the LGS's sometimes.

Not mine. He runs it as a hobby. Asked for a box of 7.5 Swiss. He gives me deer in the headlights look:"what fer?" duh, to shoot gomer.

People, i swear.
 
Just got home, unfortunately. Got a funny story:

Dude I work with, evidently, has a bullet collection. Has tons of obscure, popular, and even bizarre cartridges. One he hasn't got...7.5 Swiss, so I show him a round.

"Man, that's cool, I don't have one of these! Bigger than a .308 win, like a big .300 savage. Neat!" I kid you not fellas, he pocketed my $1.50 round, and walks away. Guess its added to the collection, and my jaw is still on the floor. True story.

Soooo, the going rate is now $1.50 a round? Sheesh, that stinks.
Well, that's Hornady offering. GP11, where available is $.70-$.80 a round. Only bought the high dollar stuff cuz ive no patience. LGS only has the Hornady (which looks like reboxed Prvi) and it'll do for now. Prolly what I'll use, unless I begin reloading. Wouldn't mind fine tuning a load that makes deer hate me. But, if I can consistently hit 1-1.5 MOA, I'll be happy.
 
I know for proper testing of my stocks, I'm going to start reloading for every caliber I have, that isn't shot-gun or rimfire. The x54R rounds are going to be consistent. The 7.5 are going to be consistent. 8mm... You know the deal lol.
