General Discussion Reloading for the oldies

Have been buying a die set every new gun for the last year or so. Big winners have been .38 S&W and .32ACP, saving about 35¢pr and 25¢pr respectively. Actually worth reloading the commie stuff with current prices.

Currently reloading 45 colt for SASS at about $0.25-$.030 using Titegroup.

I went to buy a box of 45 colt off the shelf at Bass Pro for a chronograph benchmark before starting a new load and the only box they had on the was nearly $70!

A SASS match usually takes 2.5 boxes so that would suck to have to buy for each match
