Very glad I load 45 Colt...
WOW and that supposed to be a deal for 20 rounds! Stuff no good and doesn't expand at revolver speeds. https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_inf ... sczs091123

Re: Very glad I load 45 Colt...
Forty, at this point in time, I'm sure glad I took up reloading some years back.
I have dies and components for All the cf stuff I own.
Back in Feb. I was in one of the shops I visit that carries loading supplies and usually has a good selection of ammo.
He will have ammo that most people won't carry, any way I saw a box of Cowboy loads for the 45 colt, box of 50 was $72.99
Also had some cast 357 that were listed at $49.99 for a box of 50.

Would you reload 9mm

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Wow Forty, that's a lot.
Vaquero, I have seen the same type of prices on the .45 LC that I saw. Cowboy loads too.

Re: Very glad I load 45 Colt...
Lordy, those prices are insane. Don't have a 9mm, but do have three .45 Colt, one .38spl/.357 and a .45acp. I do handload for those.
Like Randy, I have all the components I need to load whatever I have. Those factory loaded prices are nuts.

45 Colt 44 Mag 41 Mag 357 and 38 special are all no brainers to me. I see 35.00 a box all the way up to 75.00 plus a box for any of the mentioned calibers. Reloading for those is the only way to go.

Re: Very glad I load 45 Colt...
Fortunately, it's doesn't hurt too bad for some, (like me), who don't shoot/hunt, nearly as much as others.
Yes though, prices ARE way too high.

Re: Very glad I load 45 Colt...
Just got my box of 50 HSM Cowboy 44-40 ammo in this morning. It looks good and the price with FedEx shipping and tax $93 bucks. Well you have to start somewhere shooting a new hard to find caliber and to generate some brass which was Starline. Should be good for a few reloads and if and when Starline starts making it again I will buy some.
Now just awaiting for the local Cabelas to call letting me know the 1892 has arrived. A quick range shoot after cleaning the bore and hopefully it cycles and shoots well enough.

Well, speaking of 45 colts, I stumbled across these today.
That put a smile on my face.

Re: Very glad I load 45 Colt...
I was able to get 100 brass cases last week. Also seeing 45 colt factory ammo actually on the shelf. Recently, various brands on sale in the $30s for 50 rounds.
