[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 2769854, member: 48043"] It really depends on what you are reloading. 9mm is so cheap today (or was anyway) that I haven't even bothered to buy dies for my 9mm G17. My 405 Winchester is pretty much unobtanium even at $100 a box lately, so I'm rather glad to have a decent brass supply and a mold for that rifle. The Rums and belted mag rifles I own are somewhat in the middle. AS to pricing, I'm still shooting some bullets I've bought at sub $10 a box and some primers I got for a buck a box on sale. Of course I was making 5 bucks an hour or less when I bought that stuff, so the inflation on the stuff pretty much mirrors real life. Some brands have taken advantage of the situation a bit, and I'll think twice before buying from them. I can still get a few brands for about where they should be, and I've been going there lately. I've got a couple boxes of Speer 145gr Grand slams for my kid's 7rem in the mail; they were about $35 a hundred on sale. Some brands have gone to 30 to 50 per 50 for anything resembling a premium pill in 7mm. That's a bit strong IMO.. [/QUOTE]
