Useful comparison - even if a personal one.

These days with rising costs we can save - IMO that's a given and now even ''common'' cals like we use for practice .. 38, 45acp, 9mm etc benefit from reload savings.

Biggest savings now tho - instance Hoss' mention of CAS - are the upper cals in particular. 45LC and upwards, plus certain less usual ones like perhaps Mak 9x18.

My early rounds of Hornady .454 300 grain were close to $1 a pop ------ now they must be more. My reloads cost .25c each with all costs taken in for consumables .. so for 20 rounds I spend $5 instead of now over $20 .. soon pays for equipment if starting off
