You might be onto something there. Not with this buy, but with some of the other big buys. I have gone through over 30,000 primers just for fun and practice in the last two or three years. I can easily assemble a thousand cartridges in a day on my turret press and twice that many on my progressive.
My beautiful bride and I go through at least a couple hundred rounds every time we go to the range. That's only about $10 worth when you cast your own pistol bullets. We have shot hundreds more than that on numerous occasions. Sometimes it takes a lot of shots to get her trigger finger tired.
I prefer to think that instead of spending $50 or a $100 on ammo... that we have just saved hundreds of dollars by reloading our own cartridges.
Thanks for this. I have always wanted to get into loading but never had the time. Sounds like a good idea. Are the bullets you cast as accurate as the ‘store bought’ ones?
