Please continue to post ideas and pics if possible.

What pics do you want?

Pics of our loaded ammo?

Pics of our pets helping us load our ammo?

Pics of the tiny groups made possible with our loaded ammo?

Pics of the piles of cash saved by loading our ammo?

Highly recommend looking at the "show me your reloading set up" picture threads. Here and on the big forum. Very nice looking setups and ideas from space savers to full blown rooms.

man I'd like to see the pile of money in savings. mine usually goes towards to something else.

Here is a breakdown of my cost per round for .45 ACP (not including equipment costs):

Bullets: Less than $.01 (I cast my own)
Primers: $0.03
Powder: $0.02 (actually $0.017)
Cases: free (I use range brass)
-----------------------------------------------
Total cost per round: $0.05
Cost per fifty: $2.50

And that is not just practice rounds, those are used for IDPA. My carry load uses a heavier SWC but everything else, including the cost, is the same.

I sure wish I could find out where Dave gets primers for $20 per thousand, then I could get my cost per round down to 4 cents.

For perspective on that cost per round, CCI minimags cost me $0.07 per round...
