It took several nights to do it but it was a good way to pass the time. By making your own bullets you can load .38's. 45's, 9mm etc. for about .05 or 06 cents a shot not counting the brass which normally will last for at least 10 reloads and can be bought once fired for .10 cents ea. max. if you shop around. The only problem is that reloading sometimes develops into a sickness and you end up with cast iron molds, bullet sizer/lubricators, case trimmers, powder measures, scales, tumblers, more presses, more dies and it can get out of hand pretty easily if you let it.</p></blockquote><p></p>
