Really? I'm not arguing, I just find that hard to believe cause that was the first thing that I bought, lol.

You can save a whole lot of money if you're single staging by just buying tumbled brass.

It isn't, you're just quoting untumbled prices. A lot of reloaders do not have the equipment to tumble, and are willing to pay another $5 to have it done for them.

No I'm not. I was saying that I really don't care if it's tumbled or not. The price that I quoted is tumbled brass.

Damn, lol. Most of the time the guys out here ask for $25/1000 but will do $100 if you buy 5,000. I actually don't care much if it's tumbled or not. But that's how most of the guys do it out here. Not sure why it's cheaper out here??

DAYUM that's high as hell. I get 5,000 cases in better condition (cleaned, but uninspected and unsorted) for $100.

I usually sell 9mm for $30/1000 tumbled. That's the going rate around here.

Info poor favor. My order with first class brass is a month in and about to be cancelled as I think they are screwing around. Looking for 3000 9mm cases

Thanks

I'm out at the moment, I will let you know when I get some more.

As for 9mm it is worth it last time I checked, you need to buy bullets is very large bulk to get your costs down. 9mm cases are EVERYWHERE, I regularly sell 2-5k of them a month. bullets and primers are your primary unit cost drivers for 9mm.

cabelas has free reloading classes on Sundays in Fort Worth and I believe Tuesday in Allen, I plan on hitting one up before I buy anything. Not saying you would learn everything you need to know in them but it can't hurt to get some initial exposure

God damn. I'm gong to have to take a class on this shit.

Honestly it's not that bad. Just read a lot man. Those reloading books are great. You can't see them in my pics, but there is a closet behind me that is full of those books. Reloading pistol rounds is childs play compared to rifle rounds. I'd highly recommend starting there and getting your confidence up before you take the leap into rifle rounds.

But really, just do a little bit of reading and it doesn't seem so intimidating. And once you get a machine in front of you and you see how every step goes you will be a lot more comfortable.

Also, I don't know if you are in the DFW area but I know that CJ lets guys bring their own components over to his place and load up their own ammo on his press. That way you have a very experienced loader watching over you. If you can do that, I'd highly recommend that. Especially when you start loading rifle rounds.

Would you just let me be dumb and play with my bullets, lol.

And it does seem that the 1911's are a little more sensitive to crimping huh?

It's all chamber tightness really. Some guns are much tighter than others.
