Ammo
Where do you guys buy your ammo from? I'm looking for a cheap place but one that you've had good luck with in the past also. Prices on midwayusa.com and cheaperthandirt.com seem pretty good.
Also whats one of the less expensive brands that I can reliably use? I've heard bad things about Wolf ammo, should I stick with WWB or something comparable? |

I also sometimes like www.sportsmansguide.com if I need to order some kind of ammo that I can't find around here.

ammo
where does a person buy components to load 9mm for 2.00 per 100 rnds?
I recently looked at reloading for my 9mm and the best I could do was 105.00/1000, or 10.5 cents per rnd. this included fmj bullets, powder, recyled brass, and primers. And I could buy NIB ammo beginning at 98.00/1000. I'm not trying to be a smart guy here, I'm new to shooting handguns and would genuinely like to learn to how to do this most econimically For your cost I would buy a new loader and shoot a lot more. Can you help a guy out here.... |

Never given it much thought, but what makes brass the superior material for gun/shell casings? Guess it's time to do a little research for my own curiosity.

I'm curious about the .02 .40 rounds as well. My current setup is:
.06 match grade 180gr. FMJ .01 once fired brass from e-bay .01 new cci small pistol primer .01 Blue Dot powda For a grand total of 9 cents a round not including time. For me, this is a good deal, as I pay 16 cents a round for WWB. |

How the hell can you do it so cheap? easy cast 40s&w lead free cases free powder $15.00 pound get about 2000 rounds a pound primers $14.00 for 1000 $28.00 for 2000 primers comes out to $43.00 for 2000 rounds 9mm is about the same with less powder |
