wow... even with their shipping prices I'd be looking at about $8.14 per 100 (powder, cast bullets, primers). Any dissadvantages of using cast bullets? How about lead concerns? What can I do to help reduce any lead exposure? I pay about 6.75 per 50 of wolf right now. So thats a savings of about 53 bucks per 1K rounds. That would make shooting a lot more affordable! or better yet more shooting

You can wear rubber gloves and a facemask like the doctors use

Don’t smoke eat drink nothing when handling lead

If you start casting cast outside were a facemask and have fun

Don’t worry to much about lead poison if you shoot indoors you more in likely come in more contact with lead then you would get from reloading lead

Making my own lead I save about $110.00 every 1000 rounds

I spend about $25.00 on every 1000 rounds of 40 s&w

gloves isn't a bad idea while loading. I'd be more worried about kids or pets being exposed to any lead. It would be in my garage but things travel is crazy ways.
