[QUOTE="Hooper, post: 4351666, member: 46111"] Very true The only advantage I see at todays prices, loaded vs reloading and this is why I still buy and load my own is, I enjoy reloading, and I try and build my stockpile for those times when you can not buy ammo or supplies. Yes you can do the same with loaded ammo purchases. Having a reloading stockpile allows me to have access to multiple calibers as needed. You are correct, [B]for now at todays prices,[/B] on pricing of ammo vs reloading supplies, it is a break even right now, and some calibers are cheaper loaded, 9mm for one. For me the only reason I would by loaded ammo is to build my brass supply, which will double down on savings, for future reloads sort of, that would be the only advantage for myself that I see. Of course I still prefer to use Starline or similar new brass if I am looking for brass. The consistency of commercial loaded brass is all over the place, for reloading. [/QUOTE]
