    It’s cheaper anyway to do the work yourself

    Is it? I've done the math on this and it doesn't look like it lowers the price below cheap stuff on the market now.

    I could see it if your ammo is particularly expensive, or if you want to get higher-quality ammo for the price of something cheaper (albeit at the expense of your own labor), but if you're just going on pure price I'm not sure it makes sense.

      Keep searching for slug & casings sold loose out there.

      I’m not smelting slugs or anything but we do this as a collective for .556 9mm & .45, it’s definitely cheaper.
