When you've hoarded lead the was some of us have, shooting comes down to the cost of a primer and a little powder. With my 40S&W that's about $0.04 a shot. Pretty tough to argue with those prices and the results I get wouldn't make me even think about factory ammo or bullets in the thing unless I just needed the brass and they already had the factory junk stuffed in the end. My HP cast bullets perform better than any factory HP I've tried---double win on that one.
It costs me about 2.40 per box of 50 for my 45 auto.


I would be happy to swap bullets and just plain share some with others, A bullet swap is a great idea.

Here is what I cast

45/70 RNFP 400 grain sized to .460 and tumble lubed with a gas check

45 auto RNFP 230 grain .452 tumble lubed

44 cal LSWC 240 grain sized grain .430 tumble lubed

44 cal RNFP 265 grain sized .430 Tumble lubed with a gas check

54 cal round ball


I would be interested in trying some 30 cal bullets for my 308 and 300 win mag.

I will ship all of mine sized and lubed with Gas check installed.
