I'll let others answer the rest of your rant, but i'd like to know what you think "the best of the best" match ammo is.
Eley Tenex is pretty much regarded as the best and you ain't gonna get it for 12 cents a shot; closer to $.50. If I'm lucky, I get my RWS SS HPs for about 16 cents, before shipping. The last time I saw them for sale locally, about 2 years ago, they were $.20 each.
Patience and a little cruising on the www keep me supplied.
