I think better in "per round" costs, the first load costs $0.69 if I added corrrectly.
If one gets ten reloads(optimistic?) from the new brass, the cost drops to about $0.49 per round.
Then add in the "amortization" of the components, at $250 for a "set" without a scale , so maybe $300 if you shop. Over 1000 rounds = $0.30, over 10k = $0.03
So your ammo costs you $0.52 at 10k rounds and $0.79 at 1000 rounds.
For most folks time is money; but maybe reloading is fun for some(not for me).
I'm with Dick, I'll just buy my ammo- or get a good friend to load it!
Of course if you can't find it, that is another reason to load.
Thanks to Rich for doing the leg work on this.
Sure makes one appreciate the price of 9mm or .223 at $0.30-0.35 or occasionally even less per round.
