I agree that small cartridge re-loading isn't really profitable and time consuming, but one advantage to it is the knowledge and fun of 'customizing' your cartridges

by using different manufactures products, like powders, billet
configurations, primers etc. Harry, if you have no interest in reloading
cartridges then you can probably save more money

by using disposable alliminum cased rounds instead of brass.



When I was shooting 9mm a few years ago, there was a significant
difference between the selling prices of Blazer alum and Blazer brass
rounds, but I haven't found that to be the case between Blazer alum and
the non-Blazer brass case rounds in .357 MAG I shoot today. Prices vary
day to day, but typically I can buy S&B or Fiocchi or other brands of
brass case ammo for less than the alum case Blazer.
