That is without the cost of the hull, I have thousands of them in my basement from my years of active ATA trap shooting so it will be a very long time before I buy any hulls.

When I added a cost of $7 per hundred hulls and 6 reloads per hull the cost of a box of 25 7/8 ounce loads is $4.41 using current prices on components I am paying this year.

If I increase the payload to 1 ounce cost goes to $4.78 a box with that hull cost.

If I increase the payload to 1 1/8 ounce and increase powder charge for it the cost comes to $5.16 a box buying hulls for .07 a piece.
