[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 1827089, member: 48043"] I've been loading rifle, pistol, and shotshell for nearly 30 years (I'm 42). I used to burn my allowance for pistol primers and aa#5 to keep my s&w 357fed with 38's; fast burning powder and hand cast pills made for a lot of shooting for 20 bucks or so... Lately, I reload the cartridges that matter to me. I don't bother loading for my Glock 9mm, and I rarely bother loading for my AR15 anymore (unless I'm tossing 75gr match pills). Certain rounds, like my 405win, are getting very hard to find ammo for and some (ie. my 375h&h with mono's) are 5 bucks a shot with factories. I've got a fast twist/tight throated 7rum that would probably blow up on factory ammo. A couple rifles that only seem to be accurate if I'm rolling my own. I've got a number of reasons to roll my own, and cost is only one of them, albeit a major one. [/QUOTE]
