One way for you to save money is to buy the components in bulk. An 8 lb. keg of powder is a whole bunch cheaper, per pound, than buying it by the 1-pound container (one place I checked, Hodgdon Clays in the 14-oz container was 90 cents an oz;in the 8 lb. keg, it's 75 cents an oz). Same goes for primers - buying 100 at a time is the most expensive way to buy them - compare the unit price of a 1,000-primer sleeve versus 100 (even cheaper if you but 5 or 10 thousand). I'll bet that the price per wad is a lot less if you buy them by the thousand than if you buy them by the hundred.
