9mm cost

[Rumbler]

Yes. Significantly (like; half that).

But it requires large bulk orders of components.

I do it for a little less, and that's not buying in bulk.

Dale - how do you like those hard cast lead bullets by Freedom?

The last few boxes of 9mm I've purchased have been about $.32-.35 per round, so that's well under 1/2, and approaching 1/3 of the retail cost.

They seem to work fine. I did the Pepsi challenge with Federal and Remington ammo and it was as accurate and functioned flawlessly out of various glocks and a hi standard.

My P38 however didn't like my reloads. It however doesn't like the super cheap Federal bulk pack either, not enough power to properly cycle.
