I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

Good point, probably the cost of tungsten. This suggests a simple ball round for training but the ability to use near timex operational rounds in training rather than write off.

Why not an FOI request to find the cost of bullets?

Anyway €98 seems cheap when you consider 12 x 28lb Practice Bombs 35 years ago cost £3600.
