I reload 9 mm with bullets I cast from scrounged lead. Paying 5¢ for primers, 1.5 ¢ for powder.
$ 3.25 per 50, exclusive of brass.
Tactic- I envy you. I have all of the requirements, except for a mold and a lubrisizer, to make my own rounds with my own lead. Couple of hundred pounds of scrounged wheel weights ( that I melted into Lyman mold ingots 5 years ago). But I am still leery of jumping in.
I see too many things to worry about that I do not know anything about such as lubing and brunnel hardness. I need a local lead guy mentor. So every few months I buy another component and contemplate lead rounds and then change my mind. I almost bought the last component a few months ago from a guy here on the High Road.. Still thinking.....................analysis paralysis.
