    Default Ammo by the handful



    I saw this on another forum, at the Sportsman's Shop near Lancaster. Too bad I'm hours and hours away!

    You have to make sure you can get enough per handful to make it worthwhile.

    I don't like buying handfuls of 223. When I'm picking up brass for reloading I can get about 40 or so in 1 hand. 19.95 for 40 dosent sound like a deal to me.

    Is it how much you can get with one hand, or with both?

    If you could use both hands cupped together, it would absolutely be worth it. One hand though seems to be priced for the worst case scenario (for the store, i.e. dude with huge hands), and ends up not being worth it at all for anyone with normal hands.

    I was there this weekend and I got 81 on my first try! The deal is you must use one hand and get it from the barrel to the counter (5ft).

    Man, I wish I was local. I wear 3x gloves, and have never met someone with bigger hands than mine.
