Once you are set up to cast your own, you need never run out and you need never depend on anyone else again. While you can spend as much as you like for casting, you can also get started for less than $100 and cast more than $100 worth of bullets the first weekend. My cost per bullet is well under one cent since all my equipment has long since paid for itself.
I usta buy cast bullets, but the supply was not dependable. Just when I got all the bugs worked out, something would get changed on me. I've never had difficulty getting alloy. When my reserve gets down to a thousand pounds, I start looking again.
Cast bullets do have their limits, but getting good results with most pistol cartridges is quite easy. It gets a bit more expensive and tricky when you get into full magnums, but the .32s, .38s, and ,45s shoot quite well with plain base bullets of wheelweight.
