How hard and expensive would it be to make you own 22 bullets?

Anyone make their own? There isnt a lot of stuff to one and I wouldnt think the manufacturing process would be difficult.

But maybe expensive to set up? IDK.
Drawing your own cases requires specialized equipment.

Making your own priming compound is not the safest task...

Priming the cases requires specialized equipment (for any respectable quantities).

The rest is fairly easy-
Add an appropriate amount of powder.
Seat and crimp your swaged/cast bullet.


If it were easy or inexpensive, it would be just as popular as handloading for centerfires.
