[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 468072, member: 307"] Yeah, I'm not "jiggy" on your math either. Not counting the cost of the reloading gear and assuming you have brass, components are running approximately, $25.00 for 1lb of powder, $30.00 for 100 bullets and $4.50 for primers. That's $59.50 for enough material to load 100 rounds. That comes to $ .59 per round and that's $11.80 per 20. Prices will vary depending on deals you find and buying in bulk, but not by much. Not including personal defense (pistol) ammo, I also haven't bought factory rounds in over 30 years. That's not because of accuracy or reliability but because of possible/probable litigation. My rifle handloads are designed and tailor made for my rifles. 3" groups is the worst any of my rifles have done and 1.5" is the best. This is at 500yds with factory rifles. JohnnyK. [/QUOTE]
