It's not very hard to cast your own bullets, and a lot less expensive once you get started. If you pan or tumble lube the most expensive piece of equipment would be the mold (they could be sized using a Lee push-through die). A gas check design such as the Lyman 429244 can be used with or without a gas check; with for high velocities and without for low, powder-puff velocities.
