A couple times a year cabella's sell the s&b primers for $20/1000. I use them in the 9mm's, 38spl p+, 357's & 223rems.
I'm not the normal for most reloaders because I cast my own bullets from free range lead but I do powder coat them 1# of pc does 10,000 bullets. The pc costs $10 a pound shipped. I scrap more free range 9mm brass then I use, it's nothing to find piles of 9mm brass laying around every trip to the range.
primers $0.021
bullet $0.01
powder (avg 5.0gr per reload @ $30 a #) $0.022
At the end of the day it costs me +/- 4.5cents per round to reload 9mms.
I primarily use/shoot my 9mm reloads in a NM 1911. My 1911 with the cast/pc'd bullet
Not hand picked/cherry picked by any means. Nothing more then the actual test target used to test loads that day. Typical 10-shot groups @ 50ft with the reload/1911 combo pictured above.
Well worth the 4.5 cents a round it costs me to reload those 9mm's.
