Do any of you guys handload your ammunition?  I'm thinking about starting it and here is some math I did about the costs of it.


.243


Bullet = $0.20/r        (20/100)      -   (100 grain)

Powder = $0.01/r     (0.08oz/20)  -   (35cc)

Primer = $0.04/r      (35/1000)     -   (9-1/2 Large Rifle)


Rounds factory = $1/round

Rounds reloaded = $0.25/round


20 rounds factory= $20

20 rounds reloaded = $5      



Does that sound about right?  I think I messed up on the powder per round, but it cant be much more or less.  I would get the Lee Precision cheap reloading kit for $22.
