I keep hearing about people that claim they can load for half of what factory costs are. I have done the math, and I don't see it. Am I missing something?
Prices for 1000 rounds:
Bullets $74.99
Brass $149.99
Primers $21.99
Powder $14.99
That comes to $261.96 for 1000 rounds, and that doesn't include miscellaneous supplies, the reloading equipment, or your time. That is equal to 20 fifty round boxes, or about $13 a box.
I can BUY 45ACP FMJ for $12.24 a box. What am I missing?
