It's a volume thing. In volume comes price.

That's why I mentioned 6.5Creedmoor. You can fire 120gr-140gr bullets just like 7MM08 but with more ammo options at usually a little bit cheaper price.
This is me guessing but I believe 6.5Creedmoor will if it hasn't already surpass 7MM08 ammo and rifle sales.
I bought some S&B 6.5Creedmoor 140gr FMJ online for like $12.75 shipped. Yes they're FMJs but for playing around at the range hard to beat that price.
