Why is .45 Long Colt so expensive

[TMan]

I never realized, prior to the Schofield, how expensive that .45 Long Colt ammo is. The cheapest I've been able to find it is for $20/box. That is $4 more per box than .44 Magnum. Why is the Long Colt so expensive?

TMan; Georgia Arms has new factory loaded 45 LC with nickel plated cases in the cowboy loads for $16. per 50 rds.
