how expensive is it to get into handloading 38sp/357 ammo?

............ Once you have all the equipment, about how much is it costing you per cartridge (based on a 38sp/357)?

$20, and a 12 pack of iced down beer at a tire shop netted a full 5 gal bucket of wheel weights. Showed up at 10 minutes till closing time on a hot Friday afternoon.

Lucky you.

Wheelweights around here have totally dried up. No one will give or sell them. "EPA regs".

And, my 5 gallon bucket of wheelweights disappeared out of my garage.
