[QUOTE="winmag, post: 360558, member: 22166"] Well said Mr. Fitch. Im a Hornady guy myself,and relitavely new to handloading, but seems to me the bennifit well out weighs the cost of getting started. Custom taylored ammo to your particular rifle shoots better hands down! Not to mention if you load for multiple calibers that can use some of the same components(sometimes it works), for example IMR4831 powder works in my 30-06, 300wby,270wsm, and as soon as i get the dies, my 338win mag. Is it the best powder for all 4 calibers,....no, but I can taylor up a load to out-perform most factory stuff for way less $. Im still in the process of colecting more equipment and components, so the more I get, the more I save in the long run. Cabellas 2009' shooting catalog prices for bullets only .225 gr tsx for 338=43.99 per 50 .225 gr ttsx for 338=45.99 per 50 .225 gr nab for 338=33.99 per 50 Roughly the same cost of a CHEAP factory box of 338 win mag ammo. But if you were to buy factory ammo loaded with these same bulletts, you can see the savings right away64.99 per box for Federal premiums with225 gr nab 67.99 for the same with tsx's. None of wich is ''taylored" to your rifle. I prefer the ''roll your owns'' for cost and accuracy. [/QUOTE]
