Like you stated, I'm fairly interested in casting bullets myself.
After reading up on the requirements, I was left with this major question. Where are you going to source your alloys for casting? If you're one of the fortunate people who has a large local supply, I say you've overcome the biggest obstacle. If you plan on purchasing casting alloys from a commercial supplier; check on the prices and weigh the costs as well as the investment in time before you spend any money on equipment.
Best of luck whatever you decide.
