What would you consider good prices?

 

Once fired brass?  8lb jug of powder, primers, bullets?

 

I've been loading for 4 or 5 months now and I'm going to need to restock soon.  Just trying to get a sense of what kind of prices I should look for.

 

And I'm loading 9mm minor ammo, FWIW

We do pallet orders using a FFL dealer account, it saves a lot. Ask around your local clubs for bulk or group buys . Try and share hazmat and shipping costs , it all adds up in the end .

9mm brass usually ships, clean, for 3 cents/case, but more for brass that has been undersized.

 

Primers around 2-3 cents each; coated bullets around 6 cents and powder 2-3 cents/shot

(the VV's cost more than other brands).  

 

So, a decent price is 3 cents each for powder, primer and case; and double that for the bullet    :)

For once fired brass $20-25 per 1000 to your door is a good deal

 

try to get primers for $30 per 1000

 

Powder depends on the brand, but get 8lb jugs and buy from the same place you get your primers so you can combine hazmat and shipping

 

For bullets decide if you want plated, jacketed, cast or coated. 

 

 

A deal on powder or primers will save you a few tenths of a cent per bullet while a deal on bullets will save you one to three cents per bullet. Compare prices on bullets as this is where you biggest savings will be

Everything depends.

Primers: When on sale, S&B can be had for $20/1000. I don’t think you can do better than that.

Powder: All depends on what powder you like and what cartridges you’re loading.

Bullets: you looking for jacketed (rozedist.com or maybe Everglades Ammo or TJ Conevera, depending on what you’re looking for). For coated, google site:glock talk.com njl coated bullet sources

Brass: Price depends quite a bit on caliber. I doubt you can beat the classifieds here on once fired.

Is there a code? It says nothing on the site.

FB post said they will take off shipping at checkout on orders over $150. HAZMAT will still be charged.
