Question: why is 300 blk so expensive?
Answer: 300BLK is made to much lower volume, also increasing cost. ... With steel ammo 223 being between 19-24 cpr, the price of brass 223/5.56 can't go too high or it won't sell. Russia isn't mass producting 300blk in steel casings so the price is way higher because there is no competition to drive the prices down.
