[QUOTE="younggundavid, post: 2199644, member: 28977"] Not sure where the contradiciton is... I didn't suggest he sell his ammo at any price.. I mentioned the price I"m currently selling reloaded 9mm ammo at (30 to 35 cents per round depending on how much they want) I mentioned the price a buddy of mine in the TULSA area is selling Loaded Lead bullet 9mm ammo (45 to 50 cents per round.. or at least he's been doing it since early February and has been up to a couple weeks ago) {he sent me a couple samples of his cast bullets to see if I wanted any to reload for myself.. hadn't touched base with him in a couple weeks} And I mentioned that over the last 15 years if I could score 80 to 100 dollars per thousand rounds above the cost of materials.. that was about fair for what I did.. Then I mentioned that since he was a store owner.. (unlike my buddy) that he'd better price it so that he could still look people in the face and keep their respect later "when" or "IF" this get's over with. Not sure "where" exactly.... I DEFENDED... .50 cents a round... I merely stated that in Tulsa a buddy of mine was getting that. I also stated.. that because this guy own's his own firearms shop... he needs to carefully watch what he prices his stuff for. Not sure where I mentioned .19 cent's a round of profit is about right... A guy in an earlier reply... mentioned he was reloading for 12 cents a round and said the guy from Tulsa was wayyy too high on his prices for materials.... I simply piece by piece mentioned what it cost "Most" of the rest of us to reload 9mm ammo( not sure how he's using a precision delta bullet.. that costs most people 8.9 cents per round and is able to get brass/powder and primer for roughly 3 cents per round... to get his 12 cents per round for loaded ammo)... 19 cents a round is "normaly" what most of us spend to buy once fired military brass/powder/ primers and a plated or jacketed bullet. Of course that's most of us.. I've sold some reloading supplies here or there... and I know the guys who have bought reloading supplies from me are paying at least 24 to 25 cents per round.. just to get the materials from me too reload. So you asked me "which is it" should he sell for .40 cents a round or .30 cents a round. neither of which is the .50 cents per round I supposedly defended... dude.. I didn't tell him what he should sell his ammo for. I only stated what I knew of the Tulsa area that might differ from the OKC area...(to help him form his own oppinion) and.... I told him what I was selling it for. I NEVER defended .50 cents a round... My whole point was to give him some numbers like he "Originally" asked for when he started this post... numbers that he could use to help him decided for HIMSELF.. what he should charge for a reloaded round of ammo... That's it.. So I"ll leave by mentioning the first sentence of my reply to you OLD PHART.. I didn't actually suggest "any" price for him to sell his ammo at. [/QUOTE]
