price of WM 9mm ammo

[z06man]

Can someone point me to the aisle where the 8.97 9mm is at? Cheapest my local WM keeps in stock is somewhere around $12 per 50. Right now, I am building 125gr CMJs at around .09 per round.

The Wal-Mart in Del City had a LOT of 9mm earlier this week. I remember seeing some for $10 a box. I'm not sure if they had any for $9.

I bet you are actually cheaper than that per box, unless you are having to buy your used brass, but even then should be a bit less. for $5.50 you can load a nice fmj or even hp, for sure a plated bullet.

where do you buy this stuff?
I was going to reload 9mm fmj's but all I can find is.
bullets- fmj 10-13 cents each
powder 2 cents each
primers 3 cents each
plus freight
this works out to $7.50-8.50 a box
I'll stick with factory's at $9 a box
if I was shooting lead thats a whole nother story.

Even buying brass I come up to 6.00 a box of 50



This one will even figure in the price of your press

Montana Gold for bullets, buy a case at a time. I got 124 gr 9mm CMJ for ~$.08 each. How much powder are you using to get $.02 per load? Mine is just a penny a load.

Using unique, I get roughly 1500 rnds a pound at 5gr

The nice thing about .38spl, 9MM, and .44spl is if your not making barn burners the brass just about lasts forever.

You got that right. I've got .44mag brass I load to about a peppy .44spec level. I quit counting how many times I've used it. Well over 20 times by now. Once in a great while I'll find a tiny hair line crack near the mouth.

I've got .38 brass that's older than I am, I just inspect closely and load it. But, I'm loading 2.8grs Bullseye under 158gr LSWC...

I'd say.

I've got some that I completely lost count of how many times it's been reloaded.
