My question is more about the 9mm which we both enjoy shooting but wondering since I pay about 0.22 cents a round for them, would it be cheaper to reload them as well.  Thanks for any advice. |
If you have been collecting your brass, the brass is taken care of.
Powder and primer prices are all over the place. I recently bought bricks of CCI primers for $34 each and some powder for $21 per pound. See what is available in your area at local gun shops
Go to this link and determine the type of bullet you will be loading:

You can check several online dealers for prices. Here is one place to start:

Then go to this link and figure out your reloading costs:

I think you will find that you will either save money or shoot more by reloading.
