Talk to Andrew at Profire Arms and Supply. He is a sponsor here and located in Indianapolis. He will load your brass for you at a deep discount.
Reloading will not save you a penny. The benefits of loading your own pills are found in elsewhere.
Winchester White box from discount stores is pretty good 9mm ammo if you save brass. I do not reload for public sale, but my 9mm reloads are about $7.25-$7.50 per box, depending on bullets. IF you find sales and get ammo for $10.00 per box, it is not hardly worth reloading, but if you cannot find a sale and have to pay $14 and up per box, reloading pays off. IF you are not interested in reloading, just watch sales, it takes a lot of ammo to pay for reloading equipment if you are only saving $2.50 per box. If you already have the equipment, you can pay off a $30.00 set of 9mm dies pretty quick. Good Luck
If you already have the brass... you can buy 1000 primers for ~$32 (Bradis), 1lb powder for ~$22, and 1000 9mm LRN bullets for $52 (Scroggins in Martinsville)... for a grand total of $106.
Not bad... go for it, dude.
This is sounding more and more tempting. Those are the numbers I was looking for.
I just looked up what LRN means, lead bullets. Not so sure now
Don't be uncomfortable with cast lead bullets, used properly they shoot very well.

I will not shoot lead.
Jacketed only for me
Looks like the way to go is to buy a couple thousand federal rounds from Walmart to get the brass then start reloading with that used brass?
