[QUOTE="Buzzdraw, post: 1694741, member: 385"] Buy in quantity is the trick. I've shot lots of lead bullets from Missouri Bullet [url]http://www.missouribullet.com/index.php[/url] For a 5% discount, key in BluePress at checkout. The cool thing about ordering from them is that your postman will lug the bullets to your front door; I LIKE that. They've always shipped within a couple days. The best way to buy primers is in bulk from Powder Valley [url]http://www.powdervalleyinc.com/[/url] They are good people to deal with and have excellent prices. My preference is to Winchester or Federal primers. I know of people who've tried to save a couple bucks with Wolf or Tula and wished they hadn't. Same deal for powder; buy Powder Valley. Once you know a powder works well, buy in bulk; 3-4# or even 8# containers. I run Winchester Super Target for the 40 S&W target velocity loads and the 155 gr bullets. I run Herco (believe it or not) with 180 gr for USPSA Major. Shoots very soft and accurate. I tend to use range brass, but if the stuff is ugly or shows Glock "smiles" or appears otherwise well-used I put it into the recycle box. What does it cost to load 40 S&W when going the above way? About what it costs to load 9mm Luger with lead bullets. I figure I'm spending around 12 cents a round or so for the 40's. [/QUOTE]
