    500 grams of powder is around 7716.18 grains. If you have a load-data (XX+ grains) in mind, do the powder math x 1000 = weight of powder required. Add the cost of 1000 large rifle primers, 1000 brass cases and 1000 favourite type of bullet and you will be close enough to give you an initial indication of the cost.

    8mm mauser has a limited variety of projectiles which either drives the cost up for the service rifle type of projectile or make it more palatable if you are only after the flat-based SP projectile.

    Get a 308 K98 Mauser variant and you will have different type of 308 projectiles to choose from.
