Was making rounds here and checking what are supposed to be empty trailers and found 2 5.7X28 rounds. I took them to the office and they told me I could have them. Does that mean I have to buy a 5.7 now?

yes it does mean that, same thing if you buy used brass and get a caliber you don't have, you have to buy a gun to reload it for. hehehe

2? nope.
now if you found like 6.
but what do i know i found like 40--5.7 cases and ended up spending 1200 bucks so i could turn them into 30 caliber bullets.
now the cases are like finding gold nuggets in the snake river.

I've been thinking about getting a 10 inch Contender barrel and compare it with dad's 10 inch Contender barrel. I figure the brass for the 5.7 will last longer.

That's nearly $2 worth of ammo. Put those babies in your safe, they're worth more than cash.

They aren't going anywhere, the bowling alley has them for 49.99 per 50, so I figure they can sit on a shelf and collect dust, they don't eat much. That is until I get a barrel for the Contender

Agree - Put them on the display case or shelf - you will get more questions from visitors or company that see them and wonder out loud "what in tarnation are those bullets." They will be a conversation starter.

I've got some 5.7 brass a friend gave me. Everybody that sees it, is like wow,
