Of course, Hornady is going to be least expensive of them all.
True. Compare Hornady .450/.400 at $70/box to Federal .470 at $290/box. From what I've seen, Norma is even more expensive.

If they finally get their heads out of their collective asses and use good bullets instead of using Hornady re-invented bullets in the ammo, they'll sell several tons of it.
Perhaps true with respect to the soft nose. For the nitro expresses, Hornady's challenge is to come up with a bonded core soft ala Woodleigh. With respect to solids, nothing could be further from the truth. Their steel jacketed solid is superb and remains one of the best there is.
