1k rds .45acp Federal fmj $210

Good grief!...it costs me about .18/each to load my own! For .21/each maybe I should just wait on the delivery truck to arrive.

Yep, new brass $164.50 so the bullets, primer and powder cost you much more than $45.50 (1000/rounds) to make new ammo.

Back in the late 90's early 2000's for the price of factory ammo I quit reloading range ammo, just bought factory and saved the brass.

I have a bit of brass accumulated from then... I never sold off my reloading equipment.
 
Being able to roll my own was a blessing a couple of years ago (only because I was lucky enough to have thousands of primers when the supply dried up). But at these prices, loading range ammo just doesn't make sense.

Of course, its just a matter of time until factory ammo goes crazy again.
