    Cost of SS198 stuff?

    Pardon my absence gentlemen,

    Been a while and some things around house have changed domestically... That's another thread....

    Have a fella wanting to sell some SS198 to me but I haven't a clue what the going price or a good price, other than free, would be... Any input here. He's currently offering it for 50 a box...

    thanks,

    panzertruppe

    He's talking SS198, not SS197.

    I'm not sure what SS198 would go for as that was a restricted LEO round IIRC.

    He's referring to the SS198, not the SS197SR.

    And I guess the SS197 isn't that cheap anymore either?

    I saw it at Wholesale Hunter still at that price but out of stock/backordered... Looks like I need to get my name on the list for 695 a case of 2000... Even if backordered...

    Any input on the SS198... Sounding out of the "Right Price" range to me... Is the performance worth the extra cash???

    I dunno. I'm not a LEO, so I haven't priced it.

    Sorry.

    I personally feel that the 197SR will put a hurt on a bad guy as well as the 198. The key is shot placement. What I mean is if I shot a finger, chances are he'll keep coming, but if I get the apricot, he's done.

    I can't justify the difference in price, but that's just me.

    On the 197SR: Market demand, or lack thereof determines the price to a certain degree. The bottom line is anywhere between $650 and $750. is decent.
