Compared to most common handgun calibers, no, it's not cheap. Compared to my 7mm Rem Mag, then yes its cheap.
Here's an example from my local Wal-Mart
9mm - 100 round value pack White Box Winchester - $9.97
.40 S&W - 100 round value pack White Box Winchester -$15.97
.45 ACP - 100 round value pack White Box Winchester - $19.97
.357 SIG - 50 round White Box Winchester - $13.47

If you are going to shoot .357Sig alot, order from Georgia Arms. IMHO
Yes, bulk buys on internet or phone.
That is the ticket.

That reminds me, time to hit up walmart.
I find the white box Winchester stuff to shoot very well in my G32. My XD-357 was more accurate with UMC.

125gr fmj canned heat 500 rounds for $85.00
Has anyone tried Lancer ammo? Their stuff is $160 for 1k.... I've tried GA but I was curious if this stuff is any good.
I have used Lancer and found it to be VERY good stuff!!!http://www.eunuch.org/vbulletin/images/smilies/daumenhoch.gif http://www.eunuch.org/vbulletin/images/smilies/2gunsfiring_v1.gif
Lancers ammo prices are really good for the 357 stuff,but the 45 and others are more than my "local" bulk supplier,Outdoor Marksman...Haven't ordered any Lancer yet,but I'm definitely going to...
I only ordered from them because of good feedback here and the fact their bulk .357 Sig was so reasonably priced (250 rds/$46+can). They've got 125 Gr XTP for $10.75 a box, as well. Shipping on >1000 rds was $26.
I ordered a selection of calibers in addition to the .357 Sig, but I've only had time to shoot the bulk stuff. Hotter than the Cabela's Ultramax bulk ammo, cleaner, and less expensive - what's not to like? Accuracy is excellent at 15 yards, haven't shot for groups past that yet.

Now that's what I call a bargain!
That Speer lawman is so clean it almost cleans the gun for you while you shoot too.....

It's very inexpensive if you reload. ;)
