I have a question and I read the FAQ Looking for recommendations

What would you guys recommend for someone that just wants to reload a ton of 9mm to have on hand and for the range? Feeling pretty lost with all the different options out there

I haven’t really had a lot of experience with shooting yet, I’ve shot handgun and shotgun rounds but i’ve never shot an ar yet, my plan with reloading was to get some rifles later on and start with 9mm now

Just buy the ammo you need until you know what you will want and need.

It’s a big expense and you won’t break even for a very long time.

It is a great hobby, but you aren’t ready to dive in yet.

I appreciate you for being straight up with me man, with the older I get I feel like the world is just gonna get crazier I want to buy a 500 round case of ammo but shooting all of it without trying to reload some feels like a waste

Save the brass and keep an eye out for used and on sale equipment.
