[QUOTE="JEVapa, post: 3748398, member: 41176"] I have DL'd a bunch of that. Good info. I would say, that even now, those four cartridges are probably cheaper to buy in bulk than to reload, or real close to it. I've done the math and it's not worth it, especially when I need to use components for the hard to get or expensive cartridges. However, almost anything revolver and levergun, small auto (32 and 380 ACP, etc), and precision long range, hunting rounds, and straight walls are well worth it. Example: 45 Colt is more than a buck a round. With all new components and current prices, I can load it at about half depending on where I get my brass. Using once fired of my own, it's around 30 cents. .444 Marlin is about $3 or more a round; I can load it for about 60 cents-ish. 9 ball is about $.29-.$.35 per round. I can load it for about the same price, so it's not worth it. [/QUOTE]
