[QUOTE="Copper01, post: 1557849, member: 10538"] I helped a friend pick out all of his reloading gear last week. When I figured it up for him the component costs were 12.5 to 17.5 cents per .45 cartridge depending on the components and if he reused brass. You can just about increase that price by 1/2 if you buy once fired brass or double it for new starline brass. Based on my Bullseye target load, component price breaks down to: $0.09 per bullet $0.01 per powder drop (4.0grns or less) $0.04 per primer brass is reused so $0.00 in this case The generic answer I give when someone asks how much does it cost to reload .45 is -$7.50 per 50 with reused brass or $14.50 with new brass. Of course that comes with the caveat of it depends if component prices have gone up in the last few weeks. [/QUOTE]
