[QUOTE="dlbleak, post: 2147392, member: 6795"] in my light 38 loads i use 2.5 grains of Clays. thats 2800 rounds per 1lb bottle.there are 7000 grains in a pound. the last time i bought clays it was about $20.less than a penny a round. primers are pretty much set at 3.6 cents a piece right now. round everything up to an even cent and its a nickel a loaded round. i have some money in casting pots and molds, maybe another 150-200. using range lead or scrounged up wheel weights, bullets don't cost anything but time. brass is all pickup and scrounged. cost goes up for magnum rounds but only factored by the amount of powder used. even if you are buying plated bullets, you should be able to load for around 15 cents per round. example would be $7.50 per box of 9mm [/QUOTE]
