Why is it that handloading has to be so much more expensive than buying factory? I mean, I know factory ammo is not as high quality most of the time, but that's simply because the care factor isn't there. Why do the materials alone have to cost more than the whole completed factory round? Even bulk considerations aside, this seems rather absurd when the homemades cost up to 3-4 times as much as factory in some cases(especially with .308 NATO).
