QUOTE=moxie;137148116]One of the challenges is the primer. It starts out as a liquid that is centrifugally spun into the rim. Getting or making the compound might be troublesome. And you have to remove the indentation from the rim left by the hammer strike. Piece of cake![/QUOTE]

22 lr can be reloaded...I would not have believed it until I ran into some today at an outdoor store/bait shop in Grayson Kentucky a few miles North of Grayson Lake, the bullets were $7.50 for 50/ $15 per hundred. The brass was new and unstruck Just bulk piled in little bait containers. I declined to buy them at time because the clerk didn't know the velocity or bullet weight but they looked like they could be match grade, very clean. I would only guess folks can get the supplies to make their own...
