I've been reloading pistol rounds for a year now... mainly 9mm, .39spl, .357mag. Just wondering if I should take the plunge into .223 when steel cased can run around $0.30/rd.

Basically looking for a cost brake down for those who already load for .223. Are your price/rd less then steel cased bulk ammo? I am fairly limited on reloading time and donate a lot of it to 9mm because I shoot a lot of it. Only about 300-400rd of .223 so far.
