Who does it? I did some quick figuring on some hand loads and realized how much money you can save! I've always reloaded 30-30, 30-06, 300 win and weatherby... it's father/son time for my dad and I.
here's the figures I came up with, all prices from SportsmanWarehouse.com and will be for 30-06 loads;
Hornady A-Max 168 grains: $30 per 100 bullets (which is $.30 each)
IMR 4064 Powder: $24 per pound (7000 grains in a pound, max load is 58 grains a load, gives you 118 rounds, which is $.20 of powder per round)
Large Rifle Primers: $28 per 1000 (which is $.028 each)
30-06 Brass: $25 per 50 (which is $.02 each, not that you have to buy these each time...)
total: $.30+$.20+$.028+$.02 = $.548 cents each plus a little time (which is great time for me since I spend it with my father)
Compare that to preloaded rounds:
Hornady A-Max 168 grain 30-06: $33 per 20 rounds (which divides out to $1.65 a round)
so handloads $.548 a round compared to preloaded $1.65 a round....
think about it... that's 3:1
next comes pricing out the 45 acp's
