The problem with ammo is transport, I got a brick of R-50 from Shane but thats a long drive for you! You might be able to organize a relay from shooting comp to shooting comp.

NH,

I am sure we have some at work....pretty sure its up around $250 or more a brick...if Tamex goes up your way it would cost about $15 freight for a couple of bricks...if you had posted this yesterday I could have got it to Coffs for free.

R50 was the best shooting ammo in my benchgun...the yanks have just started shooting it over there and some of them are very impressed.
