The MSRP for Remington Premier Bismuth loads vary from $57.99 – $70.99 depending on the precise loading you choose to take with you into the field. While these shells are a bit on the spendy side, they are not meant to be your everyday, range practice type of ammunition. These are your heavy-hitters meant to down a rotund rooster or giant goose with every shotshell. As a result, keep these to yourself (tell your friends to buy their own HEVI-Bismuth). As always, let us know all of your thoughts in the Comments below! We always appreciate your feedback.
