[QUOTE="Teethy, post: 11988848, member: 82108"] I reload all my high user calibers. I do not cast my own bullets but I have however cast my own muzzle loader sabots. I wouldn't recommend attempting to make your own jacketed rounds. Pro's: 1) Savings per round is between 20-30% on most everything I reload 2) Ability to fine tune loads for higher accuracy/potency 3) If you watch natchez you'll catch some really great deals and bring those savings closer to 50%. 4) Plenty of people leave brass laying around so you shouldn't have to buy any of that meaning more savings. Con's: 1) Initial startup cost is relatively high. The cheap presses are still around $100-$200 and the dies are around $40 per caliber. 2) My savings aren't factoring my time. If you have a nice press you'll load quicker but spend more up front. If you have a single stage you'll spend much more time. [/QUOTE]
