The discussion here is focusing mostly on primers and loaded rounds. Have you seen the prices for just plain old old-stock bullets? Plenty are over a buck each, for old Hornadys and Speers. Boy am I glad I like to cast my own! Fortuitously last summer I stopped in at our closest scrap yard and asked for lead. They had just bought the contents of an X-Ray proof lab. All nice square sheets and boxes of pure lead. I bought all 1100 pounds of it, and have been kicking myself every day for not buying the huge bricks of tin they offered me. I already have tin. But not fifty pounds of it. And do I really truly need fifty pounds of tin?
