    I just went to a gun show here in Macon this Saturday. The reloaded ammo has gone up recently. and for a box of 500 9mm reloaded target rounds was $147.00. If you break it down thats $0.29 a piece. So now that is more expensive than target rounds bought at Wal-Mart. I think reloading will be the way to go, if you are looking to saving money and doing some heavy range shooting. My father used to do a lot of reloading back in the day, when he was a police officer, and it ended up a lot cheaper in the long run if you dont mind a little bit of work.

    That's what I was hoping to do. I have an engineering background, so love building machines and 'tinkering,' which should only heighten my reloading experience.
