Anons, I've got a grab on 150rds of 458 Lott for $20/box at my local Academy. Think the flip is worth it?
I could plan on selling them for ~$30 UNDER retail online. (Reverse gouging)
>>29851535
do you have a gun to shoot it?
>>29851562
if so post gun. I want to see this freak of nature
>>29851535
if youre making money and the person youre selling to is saving money, then whats the problem?
also this >>29851575
>>29851575
lol no.
>>29851603
I'm guessing they've been quadruple clearenced for a reason. I'm trying to consider if it's worth the turnover or if I'm wasting my time with this idea.
Has anyone else tried this?
>>29851631
theyre $4/round, guy. if youre buying them for $1/round and selling them for just over $3/round and your only overhead is shipping then youre going to make some money.
How do you go about shipping ammo anyway? Just walk in to FedEx with a bucket of elephant rounds?
Nobody likes .458 Lott and/or has a gun chambered in it.
It's an awful cartridge.
>>29851535
just for reference OP it doesn't look like they're selling all that well on GB. I don't think the problem is cost of ammo. more like nobody has the gun for it imho
>>29851668
Not OP and don't particularly care regardless but I'm curious why? What's the word? It's not like I'm going to shoot one anyways

not OP but a dude i know has pic related in 458 lott
light, tiny ass rifle in a huge ass caliber.
couldnt feel my arm after i shot some groups with it. and shooting prone was outright dangerous, im sure that shit can break your collarbone
>>29851713
why that small pad? The hell were they thinking?
>>29851773
masochists gotta have some niche guns too i guess
>>29851688
Basically if you want a poorfag elephant gun, you get a budget model .458 Win or .375 H&H. If you're a poorfag but also have a small dick, you buy a Weatherby. If you have enough money to shoot an elephant, you have enough money to buy a nice gun in .505, ect. and get it custom engraved and the whole nine yards.
.458 Lott is in this weird place where everyone compares their caliber to it because they want to prove it doesn't suck as bad as .458 Lott. It's barely better than a stock .458 win mag and way more expensive.
>>29851535
It depends, do you know anyone who's going to buy?
The real problem is that anyone who shoots that caliber is well aware of how much it costs, and most likely reloads specifically to avoid buying it. Even at a steep discount, it's going to be difficult as hell to find a buyer who owns an obscure caliber and who doesn't reload at the same time. Don't be tempted anon, there's a reason it's on sale.
I'm surprised /k/ knows about big game calibers and not just dooty gear queer shit
>>29851880
No surprise, quality posting happens when it's late on a school night.
>>29851843
Interesting. So the Lott is dying to the 458 Win then?
>>29851953
its pretty much dead. even the guys with lott guns can fire 458win out of them iirc.
people usually reload these expensive calibers anyways
If it's really $20 AND it's still there, I say no go. Consider if you live in a large city. There's probably only 5 or 6 in the entire city who shoot this and I'll bet they're already loaded out fairly well. There's a reason it's being sold for so cheap OP
>>29851535
On that note we just clarified the market value for this round
