If cost is that much of an objection you can have the Feds buy the rights to manufacture that bullet and they'll produce them en masse. Mass production tends to have the effect of lowering prices. If that's not good enough for you you can have them made in China (why not? eveything else is) which would further lower production cost.
If we are having this discussion about new calibers we are doing so because our current inventory is not cutting the ice and our soldiers lives are at risk. I, for one, want to see our soldiers gets the best training and equipment possible if they are going to be sent into harm's way, so cost isn't as much of obstacle to me. If the cost of Chinese made ammo still bothers you feel free to make up some of the cost by eliminating Federal welfare programs.
PS It also might not be a bad idea to train soldiers as riflemen once again and not as sprayers.
