Did I get paid to buy a new press?

About 4 months ago (end of dec), I went to my local gun dealer to buy one of the Hornady Lock and Load classic presses (just the press, not the kit) to go along with my Lock and Load AP press. They were selling the press for 89 dollars.

I then mailed in my rebate for the free bullets. Last year, the rebate for the bullets was 500 for the classic press or the classic press kit, now this year, its 100 bullets for the classic press alone and 500 for the whole press kit.

I finally received my bullets early this week. 500 230 grain Hornady XTP hollowpoints.

Considering the price of Hornady bullets these days, I think I got a free press as well as some extra money.

First rebate I ever did that I really was anxious to get (I normally don't like rebates).

At current prices, yes, you got paid to buy the press.
